Free Music Notes for Zeitgeist
Free Music Review: Boring
Hit: 2 Stars
I'm not a huge Smashing Pumpkins fan or anything but i did really like their first 4 albums. Once they did Adore that's when they turned for the worst. After the break up Zwan was pathetic and lifeless. that band was never ment to go anywhere. In 07 Billy decides to get a new Pumpkins band together with founding member Jimmy Chamberlin and two new people. The result is a sloppy, weak mess. This album only has a 3 good songs. Doomsday Clock, Tarantula and Bring The Light. Other then that the album is just straight up garbage. Plus I agree with everyone who says this album was just a cash grab. It was evident when they made 4 different Zeitgeist albums with 4 different extra tracks at Best Buy, Wal-Mart, wherever the hell else. This is better then Adore or Machina but not by much. This is the Smashing Pumpkins sell out album.
Zeitgeist Poster
Inside the buzzing hive of Smashing Pumpkins' guitars is clearly where bandleader Billy Corgan feels most comfortable. So, after a seven-year hiatus for the short-lived group Zwan and his surprisingly sunny 2005 solo album, Corgan has revived the Pumpkins in all the six-string-spattered shades of emotional gray that made them one of the greatest bands of the alt-rock era. Longtime drummer Jimmy Chamberlin, along with famed boardsmiths Roy Thomas Baker and Terry Date as well as Corgan himself coproduced. Chamberlin also supports mountainous layers of guitar with his fiercest playing. This is a version of the band dedicated to early bare-knuckled form, with a few exceptions: Corgan's grown into a more powerful wordsmith and his lengthy guitar solo explorations of yore are replaced with a trim, barbed textural approach that's ultimately more vicious. That is, until the centerpiece "United States" stretches into an epic punk-metal-informed sibling of Jimi Hendrix's "Machine Gun," with Corgan's strings singing like explosions and twisting metal as he warbles about revolution. Much of this album conjures literal and sonic visions of apocalypse, but there's grace, too, in the blithe grind of the hopeful "That's the Way (My Love Is)" and the melodic "Neverlost." Overall, Corgan's captivating effort to mine both the spirit of these turbulent times and the soul of his defining band is a smashing success. --Ted DrozdowskiThe Smashing Pumpkins are back! After seven years, the acclaimed Pumpkins have returned with Zeitgeist. Featuring the single "Tarantula," this new sound is not to be missed.
Zeitgeist, the first album of new material in seven years from highly acclaimed and multiplatinum-selling Smashing Pumpkins, returns the band to its rightful place at the cutting edge of Modern Rock. Led by Billy Corgan, Smashing Pumpkins created songs that defined alternative music and continue to influence a new generation (just since 2005 the band's MySpace page has tallied an amazing 3,125,000+ views). With Zeitgeist, Smashing Pumpkins are back.
2007 Japanese Edition of the Reunited Alt-rockers Includes the Bonus Track "Death from Above" which is Not Found the Us Equivalent.
