I lost any interest I had in them after Siamese Dream. Melancholy was one of their most overrated, and their electronica junk really made me apathetic about their break-up. I don't care much for Zwan either. Besides that, I have no problem with jimmy chamberlein, d'arcy, or james iha

YES !!!!!!!!

Finally i`m not the only person who see`s that album for the overrated crock of **** it really is.

Siamese dream has always been my favorite. I bought Melancholy when it first came out and i was happy with it. True they change there sound alittle, but not as much as adore. I was a little **** when that came out and i was thrilled that it peeked like it did. I never liked a group at that time that gained so much success. Maybe thats what changed the sound so much maybe. Melancholy overrated...yeah, So isnt nirvana: Nevermind?

I like the smashing pumpkins somewhat. I don't own any of their cds, but I have about 20 of their songs. My class song when I graduated was "Tonight, Tonight"....not that I really cared about the class picks...but since we're on the subject of smashing pumpkins...

I like the Pumpkins. I pretty much Like everything they did. Including Adore, haha, which doesnt have much of a fanbase here. I really liked all of thier music. I do agree that Siamese Dream is the best, but I personally enjoy all of thier work.

only heard 1 album and that was siamese dream, really liked it though i kind of lost interest quite quickly.

As soon as they kicked the drummer out they bombed. Adore was absolutely woeful and remains the only cd I've taken back to the shop a day after buying it, because it was so utterly dreadful. Corgan disappeared up his own arse on parts of Mellon Collie and clearly thought he was bigger than Jesus, despite the fact that album contained alongside some of their best records, some of their worst records as well. If he'd trimmed the dross off that album and made it one cd instead of a pointless two cd set then it could've been better than Siamese Dream. But he didn't, so it remains a record where the skip track button is your friend.

Y`see i`ve been saying that for years but for some reason people always seem to think double album = work of genius.

Most double albums i`ve heard suck, this one more than most

I dig the pumpkins, I think they were better than nirvana, but when it comes to the so called grunge scene, soundgarden is hard to top.

They did turn out really interesting songs though. I liked disarms' church bell or whatever it was, I was a fan of EYE, and love the riffs from Everlasting gaze and zero.

id agree with your soundgarden point.
