Rating is too low. Why isn't this on Spotify with the rest of the pumpkins work?

Because it's the worst thing under the Pumpkins name and even Billy knows

"Jimmy's drums and Corgan's leads keep this a solid 3 at least"

This is still easily better than both Monuments and Shiny pt. 1, people are bugging

Yeah, at this point I actually prefer this to Oceania. That was hailed as a return to form but it reeks of damage control. I like the dark "Zero EP" vibe they were going for with the heavier tracks here and Neverlost is a really cool post-punk type ballad, obviously Stellar is excellent and I'd love a whole album in that style.

Neverlost is just breathtaking

I def prefer Oceania and Monuments to this but this is definitely not their weakest record--that'd be the new one

True Shiny 1 was dismal. I'll go back to With Sympathy on occasion but the rest is just awful.

This album has so much going for it but some of the production and mixing choices really bring it down

This is without question better than Monuments and Shiny. This actually isn’t a bad album at all, fairly underrated imo. But Oceania is solid as fuck, their best since Machina and I would definitely call it a return to form. Too bad it went to shit after with Monuments, which I consider to be their worst album — opener on that is awesome tho. Think it’s called Tiberius?

I prefer monuments to this by a hair, I think the pop elements on that work better than on any of their late era stuff

Could never get into Monuments at all, despite trying quite a bit. As a massive longtime Pumpkins fan, I damn well tried. Tiberius is awesome though.

"he is amazing. this is his best pumpkins work i think"

i think that & a lot of what Corgo's doing on guitar are really this album's calling card. Billy doesn't seem to need to write super emotionally resonant songs anymore, but at least it's still fun to hear them playing together on this level. Wish they'd actually do that on the newer stuff especially now that James is back in
