Our Take

In the vast, colourful tapestry of alternative rock, where angst-ridden lyrics and distorted guitars reign supreme, one band has managed to carve out their own unique niche: The Smashing Pumpkins. With their latest compilation album, "Rotten Apples (Greatest Hits)", the Pumpkins have curated a veritable feast of their most iconic tracks, guaranteed to satisfy even the pickiest of music snobs.

From the haunting opening chords of "Siva" to the anthemic "1979", this collection is a masterclass in grunge-inspired melodrama. Frontman Billy Corgan's unmistakable wail cuts through the wall of sound like a knife through butter, captivating listeners with his twisted tales of love, loss, and everything in between.

But it's not just Corgan's vocals that steal the show. Guitarist James Iha's shimmering riffs and drummer Jimmy Chamberlin's thunderous beats provide the perfect backdrop for Corgan's tortured lyrics, creating a sonic landscape that is as dense and intricate as a spider's web.

While some may dismiss the Pumpkins as mere relics of the '90s alt-rock scene, "Rotten Apples" serves as a timely reminder of their enduring influence on modern music. So grab a pumpkin spice latte, put on your favourite flannel shirt, and lose yourself in the melancholic majesty of The Smashing Pumpkins. Trust us, you won't regret it.
