TRACK BY TRACK
THE SMASHING PUMPKINS
MELLON COLLIE AND THE INFINITE SADNESS
Original release date: October 23, 1995
In 1994, Smashing Pumpkins were a rock band coming off a super successful album (Siamese Dream) with an epic heavy sound - but many were surprised at exactly how far they could take "epic" - and they certainly took it far on their 1995 masterwork Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness. Christopher Fritz joins Craig once again as they dive into this one track by track, starting in the neighborhood record store where they met, the show where they saw the original four-piece Pumpkin lineup for what would be one of the last times, Billy's track notes, what songs from the singles that would swap into the album, and culminating with these two friends reuniting to see the band in 2018 to relive some of those memories one more time. Join us on this empty party afternoon where we sing a birthday song to one of the most ambitious albums to come out of the nineties.
