"We don't have to get fat,
we don't have to get old
We don't have information
that we have to withhold
Free as the bikers back
when they were thin,
We don't have to fade to black
Let the sun come in
Yeah I don’t know….
i realize that "annoying and tiresome" is corgan's brand, but… dude.

Review: ATUM, by The Smashing Pumpkins
The Smashing Pumpkins’ new album is a trilogy-completing, podcast-augmented three-part intergalactic techno-libertarian rock drama!
podcast-augmented …really, the marketing dept is getting overpaid

Looking forward to them not coming to DC.
lol no joke.  I finally opted to head to Philly to see them in 2022, but then President Brandon's pandemic stopped me.  Made the trek last year and it was worth the wait.  Closest spot again is Philly in September.

Ah, typo! 2021…finally made it to Philly in 2022.
Guided by Voices - WELSHPOOL FRILLIES
Welshpool Frillies finds the gang back together, in a Brooklyn basement with producer Travis Harrison. Much of it was recorded live to tape. The catchy ear worms in these new songs are undeniable, as the kinetic energy of the band is captured in its most raw and pure form. The album is brash, no-frills, and punky, inspired by the wiliness of 90s-era GBV.

release date is July 21st.
