"I didn't know that band could get heavy" bruh...

[@evilashxero]

"Zero" is a pretty awesome heavy song, from the same album. I'd recommend it highly, and I think a lot of other people would too.

[@buzzkillington3840]

Bodies too. good songs

[@rodrigorocha7282]

The video is awesome too.

[@chrono050]

YES!

[@johnnyglue]

BODIES!! So good lol

[@notimportant3686]

correct, that's the other side of the same coin... this is 2 of their best songs

[@Myst031]

"Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins" "Homer Simpson, smiling politely."

[@davidnajor7536]

This is from Melancholy and the Infinite Sadness album which is a double album with like 28 or 30 songs. Released in 1996 it was one of my favorite albums of all time. The range of this band is top of the line. Zero, XYU, Porcelina of the Vast Oceans, Stumblina, We Only Come Out at Night, Tonight Tonight, Jelly Belly, Bodies, Tales of a Scorched Earth and pretty much the whole album is the top in artistry.

[@vicenteraira]

Stumbleine

[@antoniomaraspin]

Not so prepared about: that album was published on 1995...

[@dar3mor6]

Mellon collie was released in october 1995

[@themplar]

It was an amazing album, recently i started listening to it again. Still so good.

[@andreasyggdrasil3244]

AND, there were 5 Singles released with around 4 b-sides in each Single!

[@locustkllr]

Smashing Pumpkins started out as a band that wanted to do their own take on classic rock, some soft parts, some loud parts, a lot of heart and a lot of honesty. You could call them alt rock. Billy Corgan's songwriting and sensibility has driven the band from the beginning. Like most of the great musicians, they grew and experimented. Orchestration, electronica, pop rock, anthemic and politcal statements. Their 90's stuff is their best stuff, in my opinion. Siamese Dream (album) is a masterpiece. Some of their songs on my permanent playlist - Soma, Rain Drops and Sun Showers, Today, Bodies, Cherub Rock, Mayonnaise, Bleeding the Orchid, Everlasting Gaze. it's a sizable body of work from a very intelligent and creative brain- watching interviews with Billy Corgan , about anything, especially non music subjects, always makes me feel dumb.

[@MrArekrem]

Song: deals with heavy psychological issues Vin and Sori: I guess fishtank is a cage for fish

[@lavenderllamamusic]

Billy Corgan is definitely an acquired taste. When I was younger, I couldn’t stand his voice. Now I actually enjoy it. His voice is Smashing Pumpkins, if that makes sense

[@mmaarrttyy123]

It does bro. It is what separated them from other bands in the 90s. Whether you liked them or not. I personally like his voice but agree it is a bit of an acquired taste.

[@kitoyobeni1]

For whatever reason, I tend towards bands with iconic unique singers like the Pumpkins, Jane's Addiction, Warrior Soul, Living Colour (not odd, but an odd fit), Bjork, etc.

[@annej1934]

I’m surprised to see how many people don’t like his voice/ used to dislike it! I love his voice haha

[@brontsmoth671]

Do a Cherub Rock reaction! Or like, any other Smashing Pumpkins song, but out of their top hits, that's my favorite.

[@GoldTop57]

I love how Billy Corgan was in your intro montage to this video standing there with Vinnie Paul

[@jinzoslegions]

Pantera is one of his favorite bands.

[@Ant24RAD]

I didn't notice that, good eye.

[@lewisb85]

Billy is into really heavy stuff some guys from one of his pre pumpkins band when he lived in Florida ended up in an industrial band with David Vincent (ex morbid angel).

[@mmaarrttyy123]

I did see that. It made be laugh. I wonder if they hung out together. They were very different people.

[@psychopad584]

My fav from the 90's with Pearl Jam ! They have a lot of good songs : "Thru The Eyes of Ruby", "An Ode To No One", "Jellybelly", "Porcelina of The Vast Ocean", "Geek USA", "Soma", "Siva", "Everlasting Gaze", "Stand Inside Your Love", "Mayonnaise", "Bodies", and many more... If you like them, you have them for a while !

[@Funktaro5]

Very good choices. Some of my favorites. Soma is definitely in contention for being their best song. Criminally underrated. Their first three albums are absolutely filled with great songs, though.

[@astav]

Just love Smashing Pumpkins. The greatest band of the 90's

[@kimlayman4742]

How I love this song. Love the lyrics. Billy's voice expresses how and what you are feeling inside. The guitar solo & drums just add to the emotion in his voice. Check out The Smashing Pumpkins song Zero as well. This song is a 10 for me. Love this band.🤘🤘

[@heliosvice]

Geek USA could be a good one to react after

[@scottthomas4779]

This was the first song I ever heard as a kid that said how I actually felt inside and didn't know how to say for myself. Definitely a life changing song for me

[@elitesquamthezmbleg8024]

True this song hits me in so many ways

[@crownmithrix]

I’m excited for another SP reaction! Anxious to watch Vin knock it out of the park. Much love for you guys

[@BloodRavyne]

Smashing pumpkins - ava adore

[@purplebeard1526]

One of my favorite Smashing Pumpkins tunes.

[@johngreen5570]

I Am One is a bona fide jam.

[@jaizarulrohayu44]

Smashing pumpkins - ava adore reaction please???

[@notimportant3686]

this is a great fucking song... .and anyone who didn't hear it in the time it lived, missed out massively

[@robertheaney1685]

Ode to no one Vin and Sori. Heaviest song they ever done. So good

[@carlosretamal1567]

smashing pumpkins one of the best bands ever¡¡, all albums very very good, my favorite is Machina

[@iconfresh7406]

Machina is awesome.

[@mmaarrttyy123]

Zero, Cherub Rock and 1979 are must listens. Smashing Pumpkins are not Grunge but occasionally got labeled as grunge due to their heavier songs and super popularity during the grunge era. They could do it all during the 90s. Pop, alt rock, alt metal, progressive, electronic rock and more. Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness is one of the most diverse albums ever made. It is a double album masterpiece. It has one or two average songs but the rest of the album is near perfection. Their song we only come out at night was recently used in an Apple TV commercial.

[@purplebeard1526]

Smashing Pumpkins...lovey dovey... lol... they were the pinnacle of late 90s early 00s angst.

[@3DJapan]

This song is used as the theme song for Discovery Channel's "Whale Wars". You may have heard it there.

[@fossilkingdom]

One of my favorite bands of all time, they have their heavy moments for sure but I was always more attracted to the sounds and guitar work

[@Bunke09]

Hey Vin, Don't forget you also had a change of heart on your opinion of mayonnaise when you listened to Billy sing Mayonnaise.

[@PUNKinDRUBLIC72]

I ♥️ Nirvana but Pumpkins were the best grunge band. Saw them both live and nothing comes close to Kurt!

[@ecgodsmack86]

Yes classic. Their right do "Zero" or "The End is the beginning is the end".

[@normanbarrera7484]

SP its my favorite band in the world...

[@zdendkstoubar4925]

Great reaction as always. By the way, about fishes, the old thing about the 30 seconds is a total myth. Even the smallest fish has a way bigger range of "consciousness". And also, round fishtanks are basically toture for them. I don't exactly remember why though.

[@Beakyreaps]

try everlasting gaze - smashing pumpkins

[@wendydotson8891]

This was totally my angry song when I was like 14 in the late 90’s. Whenever I was frustrated or angry I listened to this. And this was fairly early smashing pumpkins.

[@richardl9242]

Their album Siamese Dream is an absolute masterpiece! One of my favorite albums regardless of genre of music. This is the album with the song ''Disarm'' on it. I think any of the following from that album would be a good start: -Cherub rock -Today -Hummer -Rocket

[@212mochaman]

I love a fucking long reaction to one of the songs of an era/decade

[@TrueParis3381]

Death - zombie ritual

[@Whitesquall123]

A lot of their radio hits were some of their softer songs, but they have some hard heavy songs - Zero, An Ode To No One, Cherub Rock, Thru The Eyes Of Ruby, Rocket.

[@chrono050]

dude this double album is such a masterpiece... They get hard Vin

[@cadebuildslego4031]

In the mid 90s,when this song was released, I was in the Navy. Everyone in the Navy has a “rate”. The job that they signed up for the Navy to do. Whether it’s an electrician or a deckhand or mechanic or whatever. But no matter what job you signed up for, everyone has to serve time in the Galley or kitchen. Cleaning dishes, busting tables etc. You were known as an FSA, food service attendant. So, During my time in the galley. I came up with, “Despite what my rate I’m still just an FSA”.

[@kitoyobeni1]

The Pumpkins have typically been about both extremes and degrees in between. Some songs are intense walls of fuzz, some are quiet ballads or poppy singles. Some are walls of fuzz with lo-key melodic vocals lol, degrees of light and shade. In between the two are their epics, which are my favorite tracks of theirs; Drown, Starla, Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans, Thru The Eyes Of Ruby, etc. This song was '95, probably why you've heard the "rat in a cage" line. You probably could've had this song as a teenager?

[@_l3m35_]

Smashing Pumpkins is definitely for "acquired tastes". It's usually for reactions like hate or love.

[@petesbricks]

So many great ones

[@daledonlon8895]

This is one of my favourite Smashing Pumpkins songs. Billy Corgan's styles is definitely unique.

[@oppaipoison2074]

i've been waiting for dis oneee

[@hays9008]

Lead singer Billy Corgan wrote this about pain that comes from being a rock star. The lyrics are exceptionally dramatic, and Corgan has said they are a bit of a joke. Good Christians puts a domestic animal out in the woods.

[@chefericksalvage]

You guys are pretty darn lovely together ,love the chemistry

[@kriskeen6739]

At his peak, Billy Corgan could write literally anything and make it work.

[@FreeMTrider]

Sori......I'm glad you met Vin and your world became better.

[@Charsept]

A classic

[@TroubledTurnip]

The kids droopy 😂

[@przemekz4]

Love their song called 1979. So good.

[@DFGHOUSE]

I think the song you're looking for is "Where boys fear to Tread"

[@mementomori2839]

This song was the intro song for that Whale Wars show where they went after poachers with water hoses. But you probably heard it before on the radio or something

[@johnw6137]

This band can get incredibly heavy.

[@coyote4237]

Such a great song.

[@WarPigs413]

Smashing pumpkins defined the sound of the 90s. Great band

[@marlonmagdadaro4165]

You should react to Cherub Rock.

[@moridin462]

Best song they ever did

[@antoniomaraspin]

This song was a big hit in Europe during 1996 summer (as it was usual, US albums were out later in Old World). Like "1979" and "Tonight tonight". Smashing Pumpkins aggressive? Yes, because they were one of few grunge acts born outside Washington state (the other one were Stone Temple Pilots).

[@GermanWehrmacht]

If you thought they couldn't get heavier then look into The Everlasting Gaze and Stand Inside Your Love

[@ryandusyk4848]

‘I fear that I am ordinary, just like everyone...’ - starting lyrics to Muzzle by Smashing Pumpkins, same album, my favorite pumpkins song, would love to see a reaction!

[@Rabinfunk]

The Smashing Pumpkins - The Everlasting Gaze

[@megadev9099]

Oh yeah, the Pumpkins definitely have some range.

[@realscience948]

Good song...never really into them that much, but no complaints about this one! I think they were trailblazers in their own way??

[@mark22611]

So many goods songs by these guys.... go deeper.

[@kelly4250]

Smashing Pumpkins were MY group in high school...wow haven’t heard them in over 20 years 😂

[@youn1700]

Think of this song from the view point of a singer that has to perform in front of a crowd every evening. And the fact, they expect him to perform flawlessly in front of them every evening. "Now I'm naked, nothing but an animal But can you fake it, for just one more show?" and "Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage". This is basically Billy telling his fans off.

For those that are interested their new album "Cyr" is about to drop in November and they are currently doing a 6 part animated series on youtube with some of the music from the new album. Part 1 and 2 are out now.

[@TwelveDeck]

Their best songs are their heavy songs, such as Cherub Rock, Fuck You, Where Boys Fear To Tread and Zero.

[@ericcolacino1825]

You thought SP was a soft band? Bruh lol you are too funny

[@Zakofidea]

Didn't know they could get heavy? Check out "Zero" or "Jelly Belly".

[@curtiswilson3569]

Check out Zero by them. That is probably my favorite of their hard stuff.

[@sean88gator]

Vin, as far as Smashing Pumpkins goes you will absolutely love "Drown", "Tristessa", "I Am One", "Thru the Eyes of Ruby" for harder songs and Sori, for more beautiful rock go with "Mayonaise", "Soma", "Stand Inside Your Love", and for alternative 80's sounding, go with "To Shiela", "For Martha", or "Glynis". You will not be disappointed.

[@DA-sf3vs]

I love his voice

Here we go with the pumpkins sesh 🤞

I love all of the pumpkins stuff. Massively amazing discography, but yea his voice is different, but I couldn't hear a more normal sounding singer pulling off his songs.

[@neomoscoso10]

Despite all my rage, I am still just a rat in the cage... especially during this pandemic... 😷😠

[@mmaarrttyy123]

Sori must be having a bad day. This song was massive in the 90s. The music video helped a lot. His voice is an acquired taste but this song is fire. I saw Smashing Pumpkins at a Festival a few years ago and this song went off. Try not to mosh to this. It's Impossible! Rat in a cage means you are trapped by society. You hate your job, but you can't quit it, because you have debts to pay. Billy Corgan hated playing the same stuff all the time but it is what the fans want. They only want to hear the old stuff and not the new stuff. The life of a rock star can be tough at times. Having to do the same stuff over and over again. They did get payed well back then so it is not all bad.

[@WaveGazer]

If you want more heavy Smashing Pumpkins you should try Cherub Rock.

[@williambinns218]

What's funny is this song and tonight tonight we're on the same album and both singles

[@jenewbee]

Zero next please

[@robertshulenberger]

This is such an iconic song. You've never heard the Smashing Pumpkins song "1979" ?!?! 16:15; Dimebag Darrell was from Pantera, Damageplan, King Diamond, Anthrax, among a few others but it's still a shame what happened to him..

[@paquipeon9735]

Take it from a old school Pumpkins fanatic. They can go plenty hard. Especially live. I dare you to react to Silverf*ck, F*ck You (A Ode to No One), Jellybelly, Geek USA to name a few.

[@frenchy_B97]

funny you mention Kurt, Billy dated Courtney before she met kurt

[@VinAndSori]

No way?!!

[@cranboogie]

VinAnd Sori Pumpkins’ song called “Bodies” off the same album is dedicated to Courtney for sure! And “Love” as well.

[@Funktaro5]

​@@VinAndSori He also WAS friends with Marilyn Manson. I couldn't believe you dropped those two names and were dead on.
