Album of the week

TheFutureEmbrace is the debut solo album by Billy Corgan. With shoegaze and electronic elements, it deviated from most of his previous work with The Smashing Pumpkins. Arrangements followed an unusual process of splitting melodies based on their pitch and programming synths around them. The album featured guests Emilie Autumn, drummer Jimmy Chamberlin, and Robert Smith of The Cure who sang on the Bee Gees cover "ToLoveSomebody". The album garnered positive critical attention, with the Alternative Press calling it "some of the most engaging music of his career".

Song of the day

"Landslide" is an acoustic arrangement of the Stevie Nicks song that The Smashing Pumpkins covered on the Pisces Iscariot compilation. It went on to become one of the band's most-beloved tracks and even had the approval of Nicks herself. "There's nothing more pleasing to a songwriter than [someone else] doing one of their songs. ['Landslide'] also led me to being friends with Billy [Corgan] and the possibility that we'll work together," she said of Corgan, though a collaboration never materialized. The song was a hit, peaking at #3 on the US Modern Rock Tracks and at #30 on the US Airplay charts.
