Is Smashing Pumpkins any good? I heard their song Bullet with Butterfly wings and another song I REALLY liked, and I'm wondering if I should go grab a few albums.
What does /mu/ think of Smashing Pumpkins?
What are some must have albums?
Siamese Dream is a 10/10 like my ninth favorite album
i want off this ride
Literally my favourite band of all time.
Literally listen to every single LP, B-Side collection and bootleg live recording otherwise you're a disgusting casual.
Get a girlfriend with bleached hair, send her gifts made of ironic lovehearts then have her break up with you and listen to Gish first.

Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness
The first two albums are great, everything else is decent except Zeitgeist, which is bafflingly terrible

Alright so how about this: Bullet with Butterfly wings perfectly described my emotional state and feelings when I was depressed and angry. Is there an album like that song? I'm not really all that depressed right now, but I love listening to sad/angry stuff like that for some reason even when I'm not sad. It just helps me release something.

Maybe Adore? It's not angry, but quite somber in places. It gets a lot of flak as its very different to their previous stuff. But I really enjoy it for what it is.
BTW to answer the original question, they are the greatest Alt Rock band of all time. There, I said it.

Okay.
I'll add Adore.

Oh, and X.Y.U is probably their angriest song I can think of off the top of my head.

Mellon Collie & The Infinite Sadness is absolutely essential. Start with that.

Don't forget The Aeroplane Flies High boxset. B-sides that equal the album cuts.

shitty music for angsty high school kids.

It's highschool-core but it's very good by 90's alt-rock standards. Siamese Dream is a classic, Mellon Collie and Adore have their moments
