Title: Ain't Your Grandfather's Pumpkins...
Review: Those looking for another Siamese Dream, be aware, this disc more resembles Mellon Collie. The musical stylings of the album make for an easy transition from the modern rock charts to the pop. Stand Inside Your Love, the lead single, is a masterful song in the same vein as Tonite, Tonite. The disc has many great songs: Try, Try, Try, This Time, The Everlasting Gaze, and Wound are just a few. The only real problem with this release is Corgan's adament refusal to edit himself. Glass + The Ghost Children, while in my opinion is the best song, is over 10 minutes long. Plus, rumoured future singles The Crying Tree Of Mercury and Heavy Metal Machine are horrible. Despite those two songs, however, the other 13 are great, and bring the band back around to a more popular sound then the overly dark Adore. A must have for anyone interested in alt. rock music today.
