“Siamese Dream” is similar to Alice In Chains’ “Dirt”, in the sense that the sound and songwriting is consistent throughout, and consistently great, at that. There aren’t really any weak tracks on either album. That said, I’d suggest avoiding the other singles on “Siamese Dream”, as I’d say they’re amongst the songs least likely to grab you. “Hummer” could be a good call for the next one you react to.

Gish is their first album with great songs like Siva, Rhinoceros, Bury Me and Tristessa. The year Mellon Collie came out they also released five singles that had so many great tracks on them. Pretty much fifty songs came out of that era! Thru the Eyes of Ruby would be great as well as Jellybelly. A longer song but one of my favorites would be Porcelina of the Vast Oceans.

when I was 5 years old my mom came home from a walk and gave me this CD that she found on the ground. 20+ years later this is still one of my favorite albums of all time, and Smashing Pumpkins is easily in my top 10 bands of all time. like George pointed out, the guitar tone on this album is unmatched and highly regarded as one of the best guitar tones in rock, period. Geek USA is one of SP’s more over the top tracks, but features a lot of the elements that makes them so great and unique: the groovy, riff heavy approach, the dynamics - going from loud and fast to soft and slow, Corgan’s unique vocal style that alternates between a whisper and a yell, the insane drumming from Jimmy, and as mentioned before - the immaculate, fuzzy and distorted guitar tone that covers you like a warm blanket. I can guarantee that George would absolutely love this album. some other essential tracks on this album would include: Hummer (as a lot of other comments mentioned), Quiet, Rocket, Mayonaise…I could list the entire track list. like most of their albums, it has a great mix of heavy rock anthems and softer ballads - and several tracks the do a bit of both. I would also recommend listening to their first album, Gish. Mellon Collie & the Infinite Sadness is also a great journey of an album, but like y’all mentioned in the Bullet For Butterfly Wings reaction - his voice is quite nasally on a lot of the tracks. it doesn’t bother me but I can see how it could be off-putting to some. keep ‘em coming, boys!

One of the Pumpkin's big things is switching back and forth between super heavy riffs and light/floaty sounds, both between tracks and within tracks. And yeah, there's a lot of repetition of grooves because they're usually going for a sort of trance-like effect. Their big singles tend to be their least hard hitting or energetic stuff, though, so you'll probably need to go for some deeper cuts to find something you'll like. Based on this reaction, the tracks you're both most likely to dig are "Silverfuck" or maybe "Drown", but I'm not sure what other tracks would tick enough boxes (the former has a long & soft middle section and the latter has a long crazy noise ending). I could see you guys liking the textures on a track like "Hummer", but it's probably too slow for your style.

I love this album. In the 90s I listened to it nonstop. We’ll still today! Been a fan of SP since 1993! Soma is my favorite off this album!

I enjoyed this reaction! Mayonaise, Hummer, Rocket, Silverfuck and Quiet are all good ones to react to.

That gurn and slow head nod you guys slip into at the end proves you need more Crowbar in your life.

Damn, first time listen for me and that was not at all what I expected, didn't know they had tracks like this tbh. The slow section and the outro reminded me quite a lot of Deftones. Good pick for sure

Absolute Deftones vibes now that you mention it. Couldn't place it 😁

Pumpkins are a prime influence on Deftones. Especially Chino. He even did a guest spot singing a song with them around ‘18.

@@chrisfuentes4482 first I’ve heard of anyone saying pumpkins were an influence on them, let alone a prime one, lol. Considering they both came up at the same time I highly doubt that. Chino has always stated his influence goes further back to the 80’s and new wave and singers like Morrissey and Dave Gahan.

@@sharinglungs3226 Definitely an influence. Chino has said it heaps before. Deftones first album is years after Gish
@chrisfuentes44822 жыл бұрын
@@sharinglungs3226 well they didn’t come up at the same time considering the Pumpkins actually started in the 80’s and the year the Deftones had their first album out, Pumpkins were on their third & blowing up. Chino has said this multiple times including a “Chino picks 5 non metal albums for metal heads” list for Revolver where he lists Siamese Dream. Plus it’s pretty obvious just actually listening to the guitars on multiple songs like “Be Quiet and Drive”.

This song takes you on a journey. It has dynamics for days, and is one of the major highlights of Corgans talents as a songwriter.

They didn’t care for it (it’s on Patreon). I think Helmet could be redeemed if they listened to “Speechless” or “I Know.”

Pumpkins I always found to be a band best when heard from start to end of album.. Individual songs are often so different and varied, they had some of the sodtest sweetest melodies on albums shared with brutal hard fuzzy sounding songs.. theres a few songs I really dont enjoy if I play them on thier own, but by the end of album am perfectly set up to enjoy them.

Keep in mind, it is the start of the 2nd side if this were a tape. I always liked this song, let alone this album. A song off it that has grown on me is Spaceboy. If you guys like the rockier side of SP, check out Thru the eyes of Ruby. Has the drums, epic guitars and transitions aplomb.

This fuzziness on this album is legendary. It was an achievement to get this much fuzz layered in and to fit in a mix.
