Corgan is a dumbass but very good at taking in 50 years of rock music, sticking it into a blender, and then producing 3 minute melodramatic teenagery pop songs from it

I compared them to Nickelback earlier, but a more accurate comparison would be Oasis. They ripped off bands before them, but whereas Oasis did so to create simple pop songs with an easily definable sound, Smashing Pumpkins only had a definable sound on the surface, but were actually an awkward mishmash of all of their influences that kill the ears.

Siamese Dream was... decent... I guess. But Mellon Collie is a trial.
