Nah, Smashing Pumpkins were even better. I wish they were still together. Billy's solo album is coming out this summer though
Except... Machina wasn't that good, or really for that matter, good... especially compared to their first two albums.
Yeah, but if you've read billy's latest "confession" blog entry, you'll see that a lot of the machina songs and the like were pretty rushed to get finished and whatnot. And at the same time they were trying to distinguish themselves from other emerging "heavy" rock bands of the late late 90's. Nonetheless, there was a number of songs off Machina that I did like. I especially enjoy some of the machina acoustic demos that were done. [/quote]
Even Adore was kinda hit and miss, IMHO. They never really topped the prefection of Mellon Collie. 28 tracks and just about every one a keeper. Impressive.
