TBT, I wasn't that stoked for the old Smashing Pumpkins.

Not at all.

I no longer have the gene for excitement of any new release. Bands trickle out half an album before the full release, so I'm often tired of it before it goes live.

As a huge fan of Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie, they fucking suck so bad now and have so for 2 decades at least.

If any of y’all want to hear something truly bizarre and horrible, check out the song “Hooray!” from ATUM.

Off-topic, I know, but...gosh, old Star Trek had such a different vibe from the 90s shows!

I'm stoked for the new Opeth album after hearing the old-school sounding preview.

Fuck the Billy Corgan Band..

Give the kid a break, Cokewagon. He’s a Bang Tango and KISS fan.

agreed, listened to a few songs, the opener (whatever its name is) was cool, but i dunno...i dont feel the urge to listen to the songs again, and i love to find new music all the time!

Are they considered a Gen X band? I'm 54 and couldn't give two shits about them.

I saw them at Irving plaza two summers ago from the side of the stage and they absolutely crushed. I just really can’t get into any of the new stuff or want to see them in some shed/arena. They really belong in a club like that.

Not at all. I haven't really liked one of their songs since Zero.

Like it or not, we're the Grunge Generation, baby.

Here we are now, entertain us.

I listened to Siamese Dream about a month ago - goddamn what a great album. Does any of their newer stuff sound like that?
