[@voidwraithprime8521]

The "Siamese Dream" album is one of the greats.

[@jamesl5623]

still my favourite

[@Nick-fi1mc]

Yes it is

[@johnw6137]

Billy Corgan is a shredder! Very underrated guitar player!

[@dzubmariner]

He's one of the best guitarists from that era..even better song writer imo

[@GT.Bugger]

I wouldn't say he was underrated at all. Everyone who knows of him and the band know how good he is.

[@tempsitch5632]

‘Shredder’ is appropriate. He used to be aggressively fast.

[@Nick-fi1mc]

Isn't that James on guitar?

[@cvrsedealer]

@@Nick-fi1mc It's Billy's solo

[@ElPoorKnow]

Hit that whole album for a listen guys

[@susanmary3795]

Every dang song!

[@DocRobert]

Smashing Pumpkins always makes me feel nostalgic. But unlike most music from when i was a teenager, smashing pumpkins made me feel nostalgic the FIRST time I heard it. They’re just tapped into the sonic resonance of nostalgia.

[@DearDeadDaze]

I totally agree!

[@manbotak2939]

Holy word has been spoken

[@Wazzaozzyskier]

"does Billy Corgan play any instruments or is he just the lead singer?" hahaha dude he played everything but the drums in recording this album, D'arcy and James Iha were too moody, drug fucked or both to lay down their tracks so Corgan went fuck it and did it all himself, fact.

[@zachmate9376]

Billy played the instruments because he was a much more efficient and tighter musician that James and Darcy, and also very controlling over the decisions and overall sound. It wasn’t because they couldn’t be bothered or drugged up

[@TheSoloAsylum]

this is 100% correct.

[@jamesl5623]

caused rifts for sure

[@scottwolfe5408]

And gets hated for it🤦🏻‍♀️

[@NikkiZollmanMUA]

@@zachmate9376 It wasn't because he was controlling. Their producer requested it.

[@jeremymcfarland5655]

I listened to nothing but Dre & Snoop when this album came out. A friend of mine introduced me to it and we had an old school "listening party" where we just vibed out and listened to this CD beginning to end. I didn't get it at first but as time wore on, this album became life changing for me. It opened me up to so many emotions and truths within myself at a young age. I recently "rediscovered" this album and have been listening to it incessantly as well as the Mellon Collie album. It's beautiful music and can truly tap into your soul. Thanks so much for listening and sharing it with everyone who doesn't know it. Good to discover you guys.

[@tempsitch5632]

Gish

[@thomsevilla4956]

A Perfect Album IMO

[@ryancoke777]

Last year I discovered Rhinoceros by The Smashing Pumpkins from their first album Gish. It's become my favorite Smashing Pumpkins song and Gish is a cover to cover banger!

[@idigthat73]

Rhinoceros is what got me into SP, way back when...

[@Jrup2110]

Drown from that album did it for me.

[@datapusher-]

I heard Rhino and Bury me... when it was new! Bury me actually hooked me, the drumming!!!!!

[@datapusher-]

@@Jrup2110 Drown was not on Gish. It was on the "singles" movie soundtrack.

[@darrenmoses3385]

Dare I say Gish was the better album, but only just....😊

[@JSkates7]

I went to high school in the 90s and was really into GnR, Nirvana, etc., but I'll never forget when one of my friends gave me a cassette tape of some band no one had ever really heard of and had a strange name. I was walking home from school and thought I'd give it a listen. Popped it into my walkman and hit play. The first song was Cherub Rock. I was floored. I have never been absolutely blown away by anything like that. It was such an amazing new sound and style of music. So original and unlike anything else. Every song on that album is amazing. The 90s was the last decade of great and original rock. That was when rock n roll peaked.

[@focalized]

Billy Corgan is maybe second to Hendrix with what he added creatively to the possible crazy sounds of electric guitar, effects and amplification.

[@rmaxtpmx]

What?! Haha. Oh boy. Corgan's great, but he's not even closer to his like Gilmore and Page when it comes to creative guitar sounds. Morello, Vai, Dimebag...all experimental guys that came before Corgan. Not to mention Dick Dale pushing the limits of guitar application and wild reverb sounds to begin with.

[@datapusher-]

@@rmaxtpmx I think in terms of guitar effects, and experimentation in the recorded music he is correct. Dimebag had effects but it was more about tone and technique with him. I can tell you right now there werent over 20 guitar tracks on a Pantera record. Billy pushed the limits with feedback, delays, reverb, chorus, reverse delays, etc. Also, everyone hated Adore when it came out but that was literally the direction of music. Also.... Morello is a hack, F that guy. "ooo he used a switch as a gate on his guitar" others did that before him!!!

[@BareThomas84]

Yes, Corgan plays guitar. In fact, he does TONS of the instrumentation on their albums. The guy knows what he's doing. Although, James Iha wrote the heart of this song, as well as Mayonnaise

[@jimivader8979]

James only wrote the opening riff of this song. Billy says this in If All Goes Wrong documentary. Though that 1st riff does draw you in so well.

[@Fauss]

@@jimivader8979 Its really the feel of the whole song..

[@BareThomas84]

Your talk of sadness and embracing that feeling... I know exactly what you mean. You know it's not good for you, but it becomes comforting, like an old friend where you know what to expect from them. It makes you unhappy, but you also feel safe.

[@ShanLH5]

“The comfort in being sad” as Kurt Cobain said

[@kristaspecht]

Agreed

[@SD-kx1se]

James Iha, the guitarist, is a member of A Perfect Circle.

[@veevamm3642]

🥰😍🥰😍🥰

[@jommywop]

James was rhythm. Billy played almost all of the lead guitar.

[@Hollywood6IX]

Oh wow really

[@jommywop]

@@Hollywood6IX Billy played everything but drums for the recording of Siamese Dream. He's underrated as a guitar player imho.

[@jommywop]

[@mendyrckz76]

🦋 Smashing Pumpkins Always brings me back to the early 90's. Nice Reaction Today Guys!

[@BareThomas84]

I was JUST searching for Smashing Pumpkins reactions. And there you go. I'm a subscriber, so I saw you did this right away. I grew up the biggest Pumpkins fan, but I've fallen off the last 6 years or so, because their new music just hasn't had the same edge. But I will never get tired hearing anything they did, especially from 1988-2012. Fifty years from now, songs like this will always take me back to when I first started buying their CDs...

[@kitoyobeni1]

Their next album is supposed to be the third part of Mellon Collie and Machina storyline. I'm anxious to hear it personally (I've been a Pumpkins lifer as well). I love all the stuff up through and including the Machknas (other than Adore, that was a strange step for me). I've liked much of the material since, but not to that same level.

[@BareThomas84]

@@kitoyobeni1 I hear you. Actually, Machina 1 and 2 are my favorite albums. I've been dying for the reissue to come out! And yes, I'll be interested in what they put out. I just don't hold my breath for any real aggressive tracks.

[@kitoyobeni1]

@@BareThomas84 They haven't been aggressive yet since the reunion, but I'm still holding out hope for at least some classic Billy solos. This last album didn't have much for me, too many keyboards.

[@NoYoutubeName1]

The fact that you capitalised the word JUST made me think of the Radiohead song. I’d love for TTs to react to Radiohead… who’s with me?

[@SargNickFury]

This song makes me smile, and cough, just thinking about the memories. Hippie chix, black lights, and a bubbling 6 foot gfx. 90's chill.

[@tiffanykennedy8397]

Thank you!!! This is a brilliant song. I’ve been waiting for this since Mayonnaise. 🖤 🖤🖤

[@Sadbastard]

My all time favorite SP song. Everything about it is perfect. The slow build up and the haunting vocal melody and that solo!! Their most underrated song IMO. I have a cover on my channel check it out. Smashing Pumpkins for life 🤘🤘

[@danielhenderson3753]

My favorite band. I went to Lollapalooza 94 to watch them headline. I was fortunate enough to be front and center, right under Billy's nose. They opened with Soma and I fucking cried. So much emotion all at once.

[@joaovitorpaulino7439]

Fun fact: except by the drums billy played and mixed every instrument on this album. An absolut talented madlad.

[@eboethrasher]

James played guitar on the songs he wrote...

[@Hld0487]

Billy Corgan is known for layering tons of guitar tracks on top of each other to create that Smashing Pumpkins "wall of sound."

[@epicmage82]

You are 100% right! I mostly listen to depressing music, because that's my thought process. It's something I can identify with, and feel more understood, and not alone. For most people depression is something you get now, and again. Some people are that way 24 hours a day. I'd say I've been that way since I was around 8 years old. I'm 40 now, and the only thing that changed is the amount of stuff that weighs me down.

[@jcvenker]

Thank you for covering The Pumpkins. The Pumpkins are my all time favorite band. Tool is my second favorite all time, your channel is becoming my favorite review channel. You haven't even gotten to the mind bending stuff. Starla, Tales of a Scorched Earth and An Ode To No One. These 3 songs proove how dynamic this band is. Billy Corgan may be the most talented artis to ever come out of the 90's era. He shared lead guitar with James Iha. In fact he plays some of the more difficult solos on his own! Take a dive into his lyrics. Just amazing song writing. I request you react to An Ode To No One!!

[@christopherrousseau1173]

How about SilverFUCK? That song is mind bending too

[@jcvenker]

Dudes... I've been doing a pumpkins kick all night... Then you go and do this.. And yes, Billy can be a gigantic douche. He'll admit it. "If you want to be able to stick to your vision, you're going to piss people off"... Dude now runs the NWA.

[@mason1011]

Thank you guys for reviewing this gem . many of us have this album locked away in our hearts 💕

[@himynameis3664]

Talking about Billy being a douche. I really think it was because he was so young, recognising his own talent for song writing and instrumental prowess. I mean at that age everything goes to your head, and his sheer talent on whatever instrument he picked up just snowballed into his personality. It's nice to see him more humble these days

[@christopherrousseau1173]

Corgan also ran another band, Zwan. I've never researched him, but his music has been awesome. Even when they fired the drummer for heroin addiction it was awesome (ADORE)

[@kristaspecht]

Adore!

[@sadmachine7486]

Zwan was a band where the album was ok, nothing special, but some of the live shows were fantastic. The acoustic live shows were the best IMO.

Picture this: consume everything about this song prior to the explosion… conveying the anger, sadness, regret… deception (or whatever) from a failed- and failed hard, relationship and hear the music actually going through something like the stages of grief: denial, anger, bargaining, depression then acceptance. Then the guitars start screaming at you and the world and it’s literally fucking sobbing and wailing in your ear drums. Want to see that portrayed perfectly… youtube search: Finowa soma.

Love these relating vids!! Was a 90’s attitude, MJK from Tool, Curt Cobain, Billy here Trent Reznor NIN, Robert Smith The Cure. Lane Staley AIC and on & on. Was a rejection of fame and attention. Usually created more curiosity, ultimately more fame. Musical geniuses that worked with so many, so many genres, behind the scenes snd front of scenes. Feels like this is bringing full circle. Rediscovering decades and putting together. Keep doin what your doin, truly rocks!

Great reaction guys. I loved the conversation at the end. Im the type of person who has always listened to “depressing” music. Its comforting for me. But, i can also understand the flip side, those who avoid depressing music because of the difficult emotions it can bring. There are so many great classic Pumpkins songs left to do. But, i would actually like to hear a newer song. They have a song called “Violet Rays” from 2012. It’s gorgeous and somber (like a lot of their music) and doesnt get enough attention.

One of their best! I was obsessed with SP back in high school. I would drive in my POS and smoke a little prior and just drove and had no destination. Siamese Dream is in my top #10 albums of all time.

[@venus0031]

Fantastically accurate view. Billy corgan's music has specific feel about it. And his chord progressions can range from soft to dream and from angry to victorious. The smashing pumpkins always have been pretty much my favorite band. I leaned a lot of their songs on guitar and with the solos you can see how intricate they are and how technical the melodies are. It's a beautiful thing

[@drewbieware]

I’m not sure how true this fact is, but apparently during the making of this album the other bandmates were all fucked up on drugs and Billy basically had to do the entire thing himself

[@christianperez7846]

The interesting thing about this song is who Billy will “betray” himself to. “Betray” means to give oneself away to an enemy. He goes from “betray myself to anyone, but you”, to “betray myself to anyone “. It’s a process of someone letting their significant other and family, finally get in to their life. It’s about someone letting go. Might be a death bed or at a critical point in life, where Billy let’s everyone in to his life. Plus the solo. Might be THE best guitar solo I’ve ever heard. The gist of it is, “I and my experiences are not for you. They are for you and I to discover”.
