Smashing Pumpkins used to sound like The Smiths!

[snoqualmie]

This is a cool one...

 

[Mortïcïa]

They seem to want to be "artsy". The Smiths are a whole different thing to me.

Whiny rather than artsy?

 

[360MG]

Was this with D'Arcy and James Iha?

Yeah, but that wasn't the reason they were bad.
Billy Corgan was crying because the Beastie Boys had just blown them off the stage.

Poor

 

[Donn Rowe]

Someone's whine is another's lament.

Was it a Sabotage? Or was Billy just Disarmed?

 

[A-Bone]

Was it a Sabotage?

It was like they planned it.

This was in 1994, and I *still* recall how awesome Sabotage was live.

 

[Drowned Rabbit]

I always liked Billy’s voice. I like the way it floated above that fuzz guitar tone. Great sound and instantly recognizable.

Good year

I like Geddy Lee's voice, not to mention Morissey's so. . . no room for judgment on that score.

Why is @Adolf always called a troll? He is not a troll, must we go Through this every time? He’s a true original, and his opinions whether you agree with him or not are valid.

That Pumpkins show had Watergate all over it.

 

[Ry@n]

Whiny rather than artsy?

Heh…

I disagree with that assessment, anyway. The Smiths sound exactly like if an art school was a band.

 

[Taterdaddy]

He is not here to amuse you!

I'm terribly amused by him, so I'll have to disagree.

Didn't she accidentally drown as a result of acute alcohol intoxication?

He is specifically mentioning drug overdose, not alcohol intoxication resulting in loss of consciousness in the bathtub and subsequent drowning.

 

[Exiled_On_Main_St]

Here everyone says exhaustive phrases without ever offering a reason or an argument, and when I do they criticize me

Oh sure, it's everyone else.

Check out early Ministry, in comparison to now.

If we’re doing comparisons, this is my fave: early glam Pantera, never gets old this pic
