Title: Radio-friendly Pumpkins
Review: Previous reviews are accurate...if you like the Smashing Pumpkins you will like this new album...the Smashing Pumpkins consistently put out good albums...every song sounds like they were singles made for radio play. (I can't blame them for having a knack for writing catchy radio-friendly songs or becoming successful enough to do it....but it used to be nice to say "Yeah, Smashing Pumpkins, you wouldn't know who they are, the radio doesn't play them..." Many of the songs rely on softer subtler melodic sounds than the earlier heavier riff driven sounds. Not to say there aren't heavy songs on the album though. Overall, this was an excellently made album, and even the cover is interesting, filled with artwork, and consistent with the "feel" of the album's mood.
Is the review positive or negative?
