Welcome to SPCodex

The Smashing Pumpkins wiki that combines the autonomous growth of Wikipedia with the power and passion of the SP family.
Help us build the world's largest knowledge base for The Smashing Pumpkins and related acts!

We currently have 4,327 articles, detailing 1,319 songs across 149 albums and 85 studio sessions.

Album of the week

Peel Sessions is an EP from The Smashing Pumpkins, featuring songs recorded live on September 8, 1991 for John Peel's Radio 1 show, though minor overdubbing was later added. According to the Pisces Iscariot liner notes, the band was two hours late due to a technical misunderstanding, limiting the amount of material they were able to record. Three songs were recorded, including "Siva" and the previously unreleased songs "Girl Named Sandoz" and "Smiley". "Girl Named Sandoz" is a cover of The Animals, and is a reference to Sandoz Laboratories, where LSD was invented. The EP was released under Hut Records in the UK in June 1992.

Song of the day

"Loki Cat" is a song by Jimmy Chamberlin Complex from their debut album, Life Begins Again. It features Billy Corgan on vocals, and Jimmy's older brother, Paul Chamberlin, on additional drums.

Did you know...

  • ...that until the release of The Offspring album Smash in 1994, Gish was the best-selling independently released album of all time?
  • ...that The Smashing Pumpkins single "Untitled" was chosen to be the end credit song for Shrek, but the offer was withdrawn and given to Smash Mouth instead?
  • ...that former touring Smashing Pumpkins guitarist Mark Stoermer was an additional executive producer on the live action music video for "Wyttch"?
  • ...that the cost of recording Siamese Dream was $250,000 over budget? Virgin Records grew impatient with the costs and being behind schedule, but the band refused to cut corners if it meant they had to compromise the sound.
  • ...that the arrangements for TheFutureEmbrace followed an unusual process of splitting melodies into four parts based on their pitch, and the production team would program synths in each voicing and combine them into a multitrack recording?
