Which 3 SP albums do I like? Gish, Siamese Dreams, and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.
Siamese Dream is my favorite of the 3 and “Geek USA” is probably my favorite song of all time.
The 4th album Adore has a couple good songs but that’s when their style started to change and they started breaking up. Chamberlain left prior to this album for personal reasons then Wretzky and Iha left bc Corgan is a dick.
Chamberlain and Iha have come back recently, I think but Wretzky HATES Corgan and will never work with him again.
So why do I like those albums so much? Mainly Jimmy Chamberlain. He doesn’t get enough credit for his talent. He’s the reason I fell in love with those albums to begin with.
Those are my three as well. I think Siamese Dream is probably my favorite too. I think I’d go with Today as my favorite song. Interesting about the band drama… I’ve never known anything about them other than their music and that Corgan is a crazy infowarrior type.
I don’t really contribute any money to any artists, and I pirate albums of the shitty ones. Maybe concerts but I won’t go to like a Kanye concert for this exact reason.
Look, Corgan is my favorite musician, Pumpkins my favorite band.
I just look past things like this.
My favorite band too. Corgan just makes me embarrassed to say it out loud.
Really? They had like 3 good albums 30 years ago. Anything remotely recent has been the worst dogshit I’ve attempted to listen to.
I agree with this completely. But for me, those 3 albums are better than almost everything else.
Interesting. Which are your three?

Iha and Wretzky didn’t get along with Corgan.
Apparently, Corgan wouldn’t let them play their own parts when recording the album. He did all guitar and bass parts himself.
Somehow pretty much every artists I like is a piece of shit. Just gotta separate art from artist and not give a fuck about who they are as a person.
I’m sure their wallet appreciates your separation.
