Thanks man, I'll try my best to stay updated...
I think I'll go into more detail for the next few. I'm going to highlight The Whitlams next, more than likely.

I think that "Mellon Collie..." is even superior to this album but without doubt "Siamese Dream" is the most representative of the group.

Thanks as well. I agree about Mellon Collie too. It may be a slightly better album overall compared to Siamese Dream but, like you said, it is the most representative of them. Most Pumpkins fans I'd like to think have more memories of Siamese Dream then Mellon Collie. Although '1975' is on Mellon Collie and it's one of the most nostalgic songs anyone will ever hear. Actual most of their songs remind me of past times, even 'Perfect'. Love the Pumpkins.
