Our Take

Ah, the Smashing Pumpkins. The band that once had us all rocking out in our Doc Martens and flannel shirts are back with their latest album, Adore. And let me tell you, it's a far cry from their grunge-filled heyday.

Gone are the power chords and angst-fuelled anthems, replaced instead by a more introspective and experimental sound. Frontman Billy Corgan's haunting vocals float over delicate electronic beats and dreamy synths, creating an ethereal atmosphere that is both captivating and unexpected.

Tracks like "Ava Adore" and "Perfect" showcase the band's willingness to push boundaries and explore new sonic territories. The result is a collection of songs that are both hauntingly beautiful and strangely futuristic.

But don't worry, loyal Pumpkins fans. The band's signature melancholy is still very much present, with lyrics that touch on themes of love, loss, and longing. It's just presented in a more sophisticated and artful way.

Overall, Adore is a bold departure for the Smashing Pumpkins, but one that pays off in spades. It's a mature and introspective album that proves the band still has plenty of surprises up their sleeves. So sit back, relax, and let the haunting melodies of Adore wash over you. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
