Zeitgeist - Smashing Pumpkins
Review created: 10/21/07(updated 10/21/07)
Everyone knows that Billy Corgan was the genius behind the Pumpkins and he proves it on Zeitgeist. Zeitgeist is the new Smashing Pumpkins CD and it's really good work, except it is only two Pumpkins, Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin on drums playing all the music. Gone are Bass player D'Arcy and guitarist James Iha. The sound is essentially Pumpkin, but with a lot less dissonance. The power chords and riffs aren't quite as powerful, but the music rocks, basically because Corgan is a musical and lyrical genius. The songs fall somewhere in between Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness and Adore. I liked it a lot right from the first listen and I don't think any Pumpkins fan will be disappointed.
