When has Yea Forums ever implied that any of their original line-up albums are shit?

I thought most people on Yea Forums seemed to like mellon collie, though not by a large margin

Everyone was telling me Siamese Dream was good and Mellon Collie was mostly filler

They're both good. In fact Adore is lovely and Gish is genius. SP are a good band, and really fun to listen to. Just listen to whatever you want. Don't let people tell you what to like.

PS: Stand Inside Your Love, Heavy Metal Machine, XYU, Geek USA and Behold! The Nightmare are their best tracks

PSS: So is With Sympathy

i started to love this when i saw a thread about the original tracklist with 6 sides
based trips

feel good trips

smashing pumpkins kinda fucking suck, but cupid de locke is an incredible track

It is my genuine opinion that siamese dream has more filler than Mellon Collie.

Honestly I've never got into stand inside your love, even when they were my fav band never really liked it. Also heavy metal machine is much better live.

melon collie is shit. it has like 3 good songs and its 2 fucking hours long

Gish is better

>3 good songs
Idk user, the entire first side of the album minus take me down, and most of the second side is a bit more than 3 songs

You’re a fuck

>listen to whole thing on a long drive
>after two hours, hear it close as the album began

You said this was a meme album
Its literally beauty manifest

This is actually correct. Silverfuck should have been replaced by Drown

trips don't lie

you first

Yea Forums literally made this album popular

Xth for Here is No Why and 1979

Reminder that Smashing Pumpkins are good again

How can this album be so good and Pisces be so shit?

Cause Pisces was b-sides and stuff not good enough to go on actual albums

its pretty boring
its a shame i was really looking forward to the new album with jimmy and james back in the fold but this album was really disappointing, Billy seems the be forgetting what made the pumpkins so great to start with, the grandiose and layered songs and sounds that made albums like SD and MCIS so breath taking but to see them go down the generic radio dad rock route is pretty sad

pisces is fucking great
one of the best b-side compilations of all time alongside incesticide and the masterplan

I like Siamese a little more, mostly for nostalgia reasons, but Mellon Collie goes pretty hard for the majority of the album despite some lackluster tracks

I think Tribute to Johnny is one of their best tracks

What I don't get is why they put A Girl Named Sandoz on there instead of Smiley. Smiley is far superior and it's not a cover song.

>despite some lackluster tracks
which ones?

they need to get Flood back to produce

nah we need pumpkins x steve albini lol

i think Steve would rather work with Liz Phair than with Billy

You are a beta for being influenced by this shit board

Off the top of head it’s the first couple of songs before 1979 on the second disk. I don’t hate anything off the album, it’s just some tracks are more forgettable than others

REMINDER THAT THIS THREAD HAPPENED BACK IN 2016. It's the better version of the Mellon Collie tacklist that Corgan for some reason only released on the original vinyl version. The studio had them switch it up for the CD version. The original vinyl track order is far superior.

From the 2016 thread:

"To clarify just how different it is:

—The CD puts almost all singles in the beginning of side 1. The rest of tracks is just shuffled without any real reason. In result side 2 sounds like a collection of b-sides.

—The vinyl divides them in 6 LPs, titled Dawn, Tea Time, Dusk, Twilight, Midnight, Starlight. Every one has distinctive sound, and is essentially a chapter with its part of plot. Tracks seamlessly fit into each other.

Here's an example of correct track order:

Side one – Dawn
1. "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" 2:52
2. "Tonight, Tonight" 4:14
3. "Thirty-Three" 4:10
4. "In the Arms of Sleep" 4:12
5. "Take Me Down" 2:52

Here's the example of CD order:
CD1
1. "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" 2:52
2. "Tonight, Tonight" 4:14
3. "Jellybelly" 3:01
4. "Zero" 2:41
5. "Here Is No Why" 3:45

You can clearly see it's completely different and makes no sense, except to place hits in the beginning."

There are six sides to the vinyl and they seem to follow a character through 24 hours. It's a much more conceptual piece that way.
