September-October 2014 – Pumpkinland II

The September-November 2014 Pumpkinland II sessions were for the eventually-abandoned Day For Night album. Meant as the dark and proggy sister to the light and poppy Monuments to an Elegy, Billy Corgan and Jeff Schroeder began the sessions by recording tentative B-sides for the Monuments singles (such as "Queen of the Meadow" and "Roustabout"). Using this as a warm up, the band moved on to the eight songs from the Monuments B-list as the core to Day To Night, then focusing on additional songs. After nearly three months of work, Corgan scrapped Day For Night entirely, deeming the material not up to standard, save a few songs. While "Burnt Orange Black" and "Cardinal Rule" were both performed live in 2015 and 2016 respectively, "The Spaniards" was re-recorded for Ogilala in 2016 and "Solara" was re-recorded for Shiny and Oh So Bright in 2018.
