Released on this day '95

Billy wrote over 50 songs for this album despite label not wanting a double album. I often imagine what if this album was just one.

[Jordan Eder @Jordan4225]

@Cherie_O @TonesOfMusic I’m all for their cover of this song but the question was what is your favorite song by the smashing pumpkins not their best cover.

@painsketches @consequence @SmashingPumpkin @Billy They actually did a pretty good tease of it that night, there is a clip on YouTube, it sounded really good. He’s almost 60, he probably struggled to keep up with all the screaming in that song when he wrote it in his 20’s. That songs intense!

@seanonolennon @FunkyBeaches Nah, that stuff freaks them out!! Just a drop of it on there back and you’d of though you hit them with some of that RAID. They’ll be on their back kicking their legs under a spot you can’t see under your cupboard for a few days.

The Smashing Pumpkins’ first TV appearance ever, 1988.
This is “There It Goes” — the first song the band ever recorded — performed on The Pulse. Billy Corgan was 21. Newly recruited drummer Jimmy Chamberlin was 24. James Iha and D’Arcy Wretzky were both 20.
Like so many early Pumpkins songs, it begins with the bass. Corgan often introduced a track this way, even an entire album. In this band the bass was never just the root note; it carried its own melody, weaving through the guitars instead of sitting underneath them.
What you hear here is psychedelic rock mixed with new wave, a young band still heavily marked by The Cure and Joy Division. The sound is already distinctive, yet completely different from the band that would later make Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie. Corgan’s voice is more melodic and controlled. They’re still searching, still experimenting, still finding the voice that would become theirs.
They drift slightly out of tempo. They even stop and start the song over. And they play it anyway, with a kind of raw determination that already hints at everything that was coming.
This is the original lineup before the myth, before the albums, before the arguments. Just four very young people already sounding like no one else.
