Free Music Notes for American Gothic
Free Music Review: Sunkissed indeed
Hit: 4 Stars
Being one of my favorite bands, but reserved at the fact that half of the principal band was not returning, I was hesitant at embracing the "return" of the Smashing Pumpkins. Zeitgeist had it's moments, but is, for the most part, in the lower regions of my Pumpkins favorites list. I just picked up the import of American Gothic though, and I'm pleasantly surprised. Besides being mainly the stripped down tender Pumpkins stuff that I've always favored, it's more genuine and heartfelt than the bulk of the album it was omited from.Free Music Review: Very Quick Delivery
Hit: 5 Stars
I received my CD very quickly and it came in brand new condition, as was advertised. I wouldn't hesitate ordering from you guys again!
Free Music Review: Acoustic Corgan tunes. (3.5)
Hit: 3 Stars
Okay, I'll tell you something: There's no way I'm going to suggest you shell out FIFTEEN bucks for an album with just four songs, no matter how good those songs may be. However, where Corgan flirted a lot with electric guitar and the synthesizer during Zeitgeist, these songs are fairly down to earth sounding and has a side of the artist you wish you could hear more often. Nothing here is as good as "Zeitgeist" (on a limited edition release of the album), but the songs are at least listenable. "Pox" is my favorite of the bunch, with some of Billy's strongest melodies. That's what made the lush side of the group so great, anyway. I also enjoy "The Rose March" and its interesting scats in the beginning. It's not as ambitious or sentimental as one could hope for, but if you want to hear some more Pumpkins it is a nice turn in pace. Just nothing special.Free Music Review: Good new stuff from the Pumpkins
Hit: 3 Stars
While not my favorite, the songs on this EP are very well written. It is a little "toned down" as compared with some of their more recent work.Free Music Review: Gorgeous return
Hit: 5 Stars
We all love a good Pumpkin rock out, but Billy is at his best when you can actually hear the snarl/sweet fight in his voice through the distortion. And while I admit I am a huge fan, the Pumpkins have lost me a little over the last few years.
I hope Billy decides to go with this sort of sound in the future; amazing and gorgeous. If you ever loved the Pumpkins for their light and dark layers, and vicious songwriting, BUY THIS. You won't be disappointed.
