I actually liked the last two albums (Adore & Machina) for their personal sound and songwriting. Not the world's best records as a whole, but there are many little gems to be found on both. It will be interesting to hear what they've come up with now..

listened to it yesterday....I like it quite a bit actually. Might have to pick it up. I always had problems with Corgan's vocals but I think I got over it.
I also enjoyed the last 15 or 20 minutes of their Rock am Ring gig with Uli Jon Roth joining them on stage...that was pretty cool.

As a big pumpkins fan, I'm probably quite unusual in that I had no real expectations for this album.
I'm quite enjoying it actually...not sure it's going to displace any previous pumpkins albums in my heart, but I just like that it's not really trying to be anything other than what it is. It's not trying to recreate everything that every other pumpkins album was

'Where the fuck are my car keys
They were right here in my hand,
I had them just a second ago.
Did I leave them in the kitchen?
Or underneath the cushions of the couch?
I can't find them anywhere, any..
Oh wait. Here they are.'
-What If That Guy From Smashing Pumpkins Lost His Car Keys, By Stephen Lynch.
Hate them.. I dunno. They've just always been too over the top for me.

I had a quick listen at JB Hifi when I went to buy the album for my friend's birthday, it's pretty good I liked some of the heavier tracks on the album, reminded me abit of Machina but not so gay.

Good album indeed.
