	Adore New - Vinyl - B0021122-01 Sealed 2023 2LP gatefold reissue. Custom hype sticker on shrink. "Left without a drummer after Jimmy Chamberlin's dismissal, the Smashing Pumpkins took the opportunity to revamp their sound slightly -- which is what Billy Corgan claimed they were going to do on their fourth album anyway. Adore, however, isn't a drastic departure. Using dream pop ballads and the synthetic pulse of "1979" as starting point, the Pumpkins have created a hushed, elegiac album that sounds curiously out of time -- it's certainly an outgrowth of their previous work, but the differences aren't entirely modern. Whenever synthesizers are added to the mix, the results make the band sound like a contemporary of the Cure or Depeche Mode, not Aphex Twin. That's not necessarily a problem, since Adore creates its own world with layered keyboards, acoustic guitars, and a rotating selection of drummers and machines. There's none of the distorted bluster that cluttered Mellon Collie and none of the grand sonic technicolor of Siamese Dream. Adore recasts the calmer moments of those albums in a sepia tone, in an attempt to be modest and intimate. Only Billy Corgan would consider a 74-minute, 16-track album a modest effort, but compared to its widescreen predecessors, it does feel a bit scaled down. Still, Corgan's ambitions reign supreme. This is no mere acoustic album, nor is it electronica -- it is quiet contemporary art rock, playing like a concept album without any real concept. Its very length and portentousness tend to obscure some lovely songs, since all the muted production tends to blend all the songs together. But even with its flaws, Adore is an admirable record that illustrates the depth of the Pumpkins' sound, even if it ultimately isn't a brave step forward."

	Cyr Colored Vinyl - New - SUM1377 Sealed 2020 2LP Gatefold Reisse On "Orchid" Purple Colour Vinyl With Custom Die-Cut Inner Sleeves. Includes 24-Page Booklet Insert. "Billy Corgan Has Never Been One To Shy Away From Epic Statements. Some Of The Most Revered Songs Of The Smashing Pumpkins Catalog Were Showcased In Sprawling Double-album-length Productions, And Even More Concise Releases Wore Corgan's Specific Brand Of Grandiose Arrangements And Deep, Unfiltered Emotionality. Cyr, The 11th Studio Album To Bear The Smashing Pumpkins Name, Is Another Example Of Corgan's Knack For Creating Massive Albums, Only This Time Translating Layered Guitar Rock Into Dark, Moody Synth Pop. Longtime Followers Of The Band Will Recall Them Overhauling Their Sound In A Similar Way As Early As 1998's Adore. Unlike The Electronic Tinges That Added To The Cold Elegance Of That Album, However, Cyr Puts The Synths Front And Center. Guitars Are Mostly Buried Under Warm Synth Pads, Buzzing Electronic Bass, And A Mixture Of Programmed Beats And Lockstep Live Drumming. Original Pumpkins Guitarist James Iha And Drummer Jimmy Chamberlin Rejoined The Band For 2018's Shiny And Oh So Bright, Vol. 1, And Are On Board Again For Cyr, Adding Drive And Dreaminess To Corgan's Dark Synth Pop Ruminations. Songs Like "Confessions Of A Dopamine Addict" And The Sinister Title Track Combine Shadowy Background Vocal Harmonies And Stacks Of Cure-informed Synth Lines For The Kind Of Tense, Trembling Atmospheres The Pumpkins Excel At. It's Uncanny How Easily The Group's Angsty Guitar Daydreaming Translates Into Computerized Rock. Their Distinctive Songwriting Ache Is Present In The Huge, Glowing Chorus Of "Save Your Tears," Just As Their Unique Catharsis Is Communicated Through The Pounding Four-on-the-floor Rhythm And Sinister Synth Stabs Of "Adrennalynne" Or The Dizzying Electronic Polyrhythms Of "Schaudenfreud." The Angry Metallic Grooving Of "Wyttch" Is One Of The Few Moments On Cyr Where The Band Lean Into The Loud Guitars And Organic Drums Of Their Earliest Albums. There's A Grim Intensity To Many Of The Record's 20 Tracks, But For Every Moment Of Brooding, There's One Of Sensitivity That's Equally Powerful. Gently Melancholic Tunes Like "Dulcet In E" And "Birch Grove" Are Built With The Same Synth-heavy Arrangements As The Rest Of The Album, But Their Soft Loneliness Recalls Other Sadly Beautiful Songs The Band Have Offered Up Since The Early '90s. The Desolate Synth Sounds And Uneasy Atmospheres Of Cyr Complement Corgan's Narratives Of Tortured Love And Outsider Perspectives. It's Another Epic Statement Rife With Troubled Beauty, Presented From A Slightly Different Angle But True To The Spirit Of Longing And Restless Wonder That Has Defined The Smashing Pumpkins For Over 30 Years."

	Gish New - Vinyl - 5099990959615 Sealed 2021 180gm gatefold reissue of their classic debut release with custom hype sticker and features an alternate artwork. The influential alternative rock band formed in Chicago in 1988, fronted by singer, songwriter, and guitarist Billy Corgan. Renowned for their genre-blending sound, the band combines elements of alternative rock, grunge, dream pop, and psychedelia, marked by layered guitar work and introspective lyrics. "Gish," released in 1991, is the debut album of The Smashing Pumpkins and served as a crucial stepping stone for the band's breakthrough. Produced by Butch Vig, who later worked with Nirvana, "Gish" features a fusion of heavy guitar riffs, melodic hooks, and psychedelic overtones, showcasing the band’s early signature sound. Tracks like “I Am One” and “Rhinoceros” illustrate Billy Corgan’s ambitious songwriting and virtuosic guitar skills. Although "Gish" achieved moderate commercial success initially, it has since gained recognition as an essential alternative rock album from the early '90s, laying the groundwork for the band’s later mainstream success with albums like "Siamese Dream" and "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness." Their dynamic approach and distinct aesthetic helped define the 1990s alternative music scene, earning them critical acclaim and a devoted global fan base. Over the years, The Smashing Pumpkins have been recognized for their innovative musical style and their impact on shaping alternative and indie rock. more

"While Gish had placed the Smashing Pumpkins on the "most promising artist" list for many, troubles were threatening to break the band apart. Singer/guitarist/leader Billy Corgan was battling a severe case of writer's block and was in a deep state of depression brought on by a relationship in turmoil; drummer Jimmy Chamberlin was addicted to hard drugs; and bassist D'Arcy and guitarist James Iha severed their romantic relationship. The sessions for their sophomore effort, Siamese Dream, were wrought with friction -- Corgan eventually played almost all the instruments himself (except for percussion). Some say strife and tension produces the best music, and it certainly helped make Siamese Dream one of the finest alt-rock albums of all time. Instead of following Nirvana's punk rock route, Siamese Dream went in the opposite direction -- guitar solos galore, layered walls of sound courtesy of the album's producers (Butch Vig and Corgan), extended compositions that bordered on prog rock, plus often reflective and heartfelt lyrics. The four tracks that were selected as singles became alternative radio standards -- the anthems "Cherub Rock," "Today," and "Rocket," plus the symphonic ballad "Disarm" -- but as a whole, Siamese Dream proved to be an incredibly consistent album. Such compositions as the red-hot rockers "Quiet" and "Geek U.S.A." were standouts, as were the epics "Hummer," "Soma," and "Silverfuck," plus the soothing sounds of "Mayonaise," "Spaceboy," and "Luna." After the difficult recording sessions, Corgan stated publicly that if Siamese Dream didn't achieve breakthrough success, he would end the band. He didn't have to worry for long -- the album debuted in the Billboard Top Ten and sold more than four million copies in three years. Siamese Dream stands alongside Nevermind and Superunknown as one of the decade's finest (and most influential) rock albums." All Music Guide – Greg Prato more
