Title: a balancing act between Black Sabbath and Bowie tendencies
Review: This album is fantastic. The only reason I'd recommend it over Siamese Dream is that it has more of what it's good at. While Siamese dream only had 1 or 2 radio songs, most of this album is singles it seems. I do not believe there is honestly a 'bad' song among them. There are, however, weaker ones, but on the whole this is a true masterpiece. It may throw some off balance to hear a heavy metal song and then a glam/dream-pop song, but that's it's intent. I think it would have been more interesting if these two influences (Sabbath, Bowie) would have made 2 seperate discs as well. It would have been a more consistant album. Flood's production is magnificent as was Butch Vig's before him, but that doesn't take away from the fact that Billy Corgan is one of the 90s greatest songwriters. I don't go in much for alternative music, but this is great.
Is the review positive or negative?
