Mate smashing pumpkins are a different band. You have only really heard there musical style songs if that makes sense. There grunge harder stuff is almost a 180 but good. I highly highly recommend cheurb rock and I am one.
Say that's zero and bullets are incredible grungy songs as well and for me is classic pumpkins. Even if we don't see you just listen to these and the whole Siamese dream album you won't regret it and that's a promise
I'm curious what you would think of their new album? Judging by the radio singles it's going for a heavy, almost NiN sound.
@@patrickb8134 I be fair I haven't heard it. I saw them live this time last week and they were amazing. I think there was one new song and mostly there old stuff. They are a cool band with some cool tunes.
Cherub rock is one of the greatest rock songs of all time, check it out next. trust me!!
Haven't watched it yet, I left some long comments on your other pumpkins songs. Hope you like it. This might be my favorite song of all time.
This entire album is the definition of a vibe. Masterpiece of an album.
one of the best albums ever made.
Can't go wrong with any song on this album.
just started listening to this album again regularly , used to be my favorite album back in the day
From Siamese Dream, to Pisces Iscariot, to Mellon Collie... every single song was amazing.
Saw them in concert at a small venue in Omaha supporting this album. It was my first concert as a high school kid and it was amazing. There were probably only 1000 people at the show.
This song is what being a teenager in the 90s sounds like. Billy's voice is a turnoff to some, but I can't imagine anyone else's voice in there. Great song.
💯
Damn skippy.
Class of 97, absolutely right!
@@ryanhampson673 I turned 13 in 1997 so I made it thru some of it! Great times.
Definitely
Siamese Dream is one of the top albums of the 90s. It's just amazing how it blends the heavy with the romantic in a really unique way.
Totally...some shoegaze, some dreampop, some metal....all mixed together into a big noisy wall of magic.
Check out My Bloody Valentine if you haven’t already. Can really tell they drew inspiration from.
Exactly. There's such a softness to the Heaviness, if you know what I mean 😁
I remember buying Siamese dream and Stone temple pilots album Purple at the same time
I remember when it came out, a reviewer said it was like the heavy guitars were there to protect the soft centre (or something similar)
"Hummer" and "Soma" are my other favs from this album. But it's a remarkably consistent record, and my #1 of all time.
I was also going to suggest Soma. It lulls you to sleep then hits you with one hell of a drop.
Co sign both. I’d add Cherub Rock and Geekland USA to make it an even 5
Let's be for real the whole Siamese dream album is dope as fuck. An album were no songs are shippable it's pure bliss . Big shout out to Jimmy Chamberlain him on the drums is dope as
Tossing "Spaceboy" in too, but really the answer is every track.
I agreed I think hummer has one fo the best guitar solos but soma is just a mood those 2 are my favorites off this album and imho the best album
The entire Siamese Dream album is like this. They didnt miss on a single song.
Totally agree
It's another one of those top tier albums. Fantastic from start to finish. Can pick literally any song and it's a hit. Not a single miss.
Absolutely
Silverfuck tho
That’s why I have to pick Siamese Dream over Melon Collie. It’s just too consistent. I think the first side of Melon Collie is consistent though.
Siamese dream is one of the most spectacularly beautiful albums I’ve heard in my life. Truly a special record.
This and Automatic for the People for me.
This is my favorite Pumkins track of all time. I get chills when the full band kicks in every time I hear it. The melody of those two guitars is powerful.
Bro cut it short at the end :/
Same
You can't go wrong on any song from this album. A masterpiece from beginning to end
Facts. Iconic album.
100% .... I think I instinctively knew it upon first listen in 1993, but after 30 years, yes, it's a legendary masterpiece. One of the best rock albums ever recorded. Top 5. And I'm including all rock legends such as Zep. Yes, Siamese Dream is up there.
First album I ever bought, we started off strong over here
This song is incredible! I loved this cassette (yes cassette) at first listen
This era of Pumpkins really helped get me through my teenage years.
Same here they saved me guided me and inspired me with how they approached their music. I've never heard anything like it.
💯
Yeah me too ❤
For sure. I remember thinking I’m not the only one that feels lost and alone
Yeah.... I identify with you fellow GenXer. This song and Soma and many others hit home. The Bsides for this album became "peices iscarot". I used to own all the CD singles for this which contained those BSides. Remember CD and tape singles? OOF
This song really hits home. It's completely gorgeous, and vulnerable.
Vulnerable is generally how I describe 90's alternative in general. Between this, Pearl Jam's Black, like... ANY Counting Crows song.
That's what I love about the Pumpkins at their best. They're not too cool to show a soft side.
Every song on this album is a winner. It is truly spectacular.
Geek U.S.A. is the next logical step on the path you're currently on. One of their heaviest tracks, and really shows off Billy's talents as a rock guitarist.
Geek U.S.A. is pure fire, Jimmy destroys it on drums and still one of their very best songs
Then XYU
Geek USA for sure
XYU!
@@m.ericwatson968 the drumming on Geek USA is godlyke.
Early smashing pumpkins was amazing. I really loved their fuzz heavy work like this one, as well as Muzzle, Rocket and Cherub Rock. They had a lot of later big songs.. a lot that were great, from Zero to 1979, etc… but this version of the band has always been my favorite.
Muzzle is SUCH a fantastic track.
Same
and Drown...
Billy (and the band) don't like to repeat themselves. The sound evolved in every single release from Gish onward. People who couldn't grasp that fell off the train at Adore. But Adore is a master work in its own non-Siamese-Dream way. Worth a listen as an independent piece, not a part of a succession of records. But if you're honest with yourself, Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness sound nothing alike, either. Really in no way at all. So not sure why people were shocked with Adore. BTW, the new 3-disc record ATUM is great. Don't compare it to Siamese Dream, just listen to it by itself.
@@maddruid840 Drown is the most underrated song by them in my opinion. That and Snail(also in the Bad Words movie) good movie btw
This is one of my very favorite songs of all time. It brings instant nostalgia, longing, sadness and beauty.
One of the best rock songs in the '90's ... very emotional ! 🎧🎤🥁🎸
"Disarm" and "Tonight, Tonight" and "Bullet with Butterfly Wings" are MUST-LISTENS by Smashing Pumpkins
This is my favorite song of all time! I’m glad to have been able to share in your first experience to it!!
Same here, this song is a great masterpiece. Hits me at a time when I was in my early 20's. Kid in the 80s, teenager and adult in the 90s. I feel we had it best
One of my favorites. I think the song “Rhinoceros” by Smasing Pumpkins is often overlooked though. I think you would like it a lot.
After 30 years this songs still gives me goosebumps. Hummer and this are still my fave two songs off this album. Polo you da man.. in this video at 6:59, dat exxtra drop oh yeah
I still remember the day I bought this album. Hadn’t heard of them but was leaving on a 12 hr drive and was recommended this and offspring. 30 yrs later, still holds up!!!
The guitar tone here is just a massive wall of sound. One of my favorite tones ever.
1994 .. Ybor City Tampa FL .. 1985 VW GTI .. Falina and me heading back to her place .. two JL Audio 8" subs in the back with a Fosgate Punch 40 running .. I'll never never ever forget this song .. 275 North at 2am used to be safe
One of my favorite ones by them is a lesser known one, For Martha. A song he wrote for his mother after she passed away. the guitar solo is jaw-dropping.
I hadn’t listened to it in years, but my mom just died a few months ago, so when I saw your comment, I went and listened again. It’s really a beautiful and touching tribute, and so powerful.
That look on your face around 2:20 when the bass drum hits, after that little arpeggio in the beginning!
That's the moment when you get a sense of just how deep the sound is going to get, and then, when that first wall of distorted guitar power chord crashes in, it's so fucking satisfying!!!!
I remember hearing it for the first time at 15 as I biked home from my job as a stockboy at Zellers, one summer night in 1993.
I didn't go home. I went to the park across the road, climbed my favourite tree and listened to this song over and over and over again, pushing my earbuds as far into my poor ears as I could, trying to lock this amazing sound into my head forever...
I love that it still hits that hard!!
Dude. I’m sitting in my truck watching you react to this and I felt like I did in 93. Sitting around in my buddies basement smoking and living in our feelings. This song is my second favorite pumpkins song and I will always cherish this. Thanks for this today. Peace out man.
What's your first favorite? I love hearing people talk pumpkins!!
What's first?
@@MrNickjam cherub rock,mayo,disarm,hummer
@@AA-se5ys Where's Soma in the list? That's my number 2 after Mayo
Same on the “reliving”. Hearing this like it’s new to someone. When Siamese dream and melancholy came out… I just can’t imagine how kids are living these days and nothing that groundbreaking comes out at all.
Honestly, it was like “mankind has achieved new greatness here“ and I just bought it on a CD.
I have definitely listened to Siamese stream more than any other single CD back in the CD days
Every time I hear this song I get transported back to High School sitting in my 1992 Astro Van hanging out with my girl Laura smoking a J hanging out in a place called the Levy and this song is playing in the background as we stare into the stars. Man I miss those days
Luna, Mayonaise, and Soma are my favorite Pumpkins tunes. Billy Corgan is the group's primary composer; his musical versatility and cathartic lyrics have shaped the band's distinctive albums, which one writer described as "anguished, bruised reports from Billy Corgan's nightmare-land."
Fool enough to almost be it
Cool enough to not quite see it
Doomed
Pick your pockets full of sorrow
And run away with me tomorrow
June
We'll try and ease the pain
But somehow we'll feel the same
Well, no one knows
Where our secrets go
I send a heart to all my dearies
When your life is so, so dreary
Dream
I'm rumored to the straight and narrow
While the harlots of my perils
Scream
And I fail
But when I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will
Mother weep the years I'm missing
All our time can't be given
Back
Shut my mouth and strike the demons
That cursed you and your reasons
Out of hand and out of season
Out of love and out of feeling
So bad
When I can, I will
Words defy the plan
When I can, I will
Fool enough to almost be it
And cool enough to not quite see it
And old enough to always feel this
Always old, I'll always feel this
No more promise no more sorrow
No longer will I follow
Can anybody hear me
I just want to be me
When I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will
“Drown”, from the singles sound track, was always one of my favorites of theirs.
Siamese Dream is an absolute masterwork. incomprehensible the amount of vision, talent and execution it took for this album to manifest.
One of my favorite songs of all time. Just something to the vibe of this song. Thanks for checking it out.
The greatest alternative rock album of all time. From start to finish it is pure brilliance. I was 18 when it blew me away and at 49 it is still in heavy rotation for me and still blows me away all these years later. Soundtrack of my life.
I'm 40 years old and I'm not afraid to admit that listening to this song wells me up inside it reminds me of times when being an open nerve honest and maybe even being a little depressed was cool I missed the old days in the nineties.
I feel so grateful that this song has been in my life for the past 30 years. So glad more people are discovering them…incredible band
Mayonaise takes me back to the same place, every time. Being 14 in 1995. In the pale afternoon light...air still warm....twilight coming. Turning off of the sidewalk onto the dirt. The trail through the bushes, under the tall power lines. The empty land between the suburban housing developments was our land, the land of those who were stuck in between childhood and adulthood.
Loved your comment. Like poetry. Brought tears to my eyes. You captured this beautifully.
@@kat19805 Thank you, stranger = )
Only saw them once, early in the Siamese Dream tour at the Blue Note in Columbia MO, right before they had started blowing up huge on MTV. Tickets were $8! Those were the days for seeing great shows without getting totally bent over by Ticketmaster. Their first 2 albums Gish and Siamese Dream are my favorites SP albums, and are masterpieces of classic grunge and Pumpkins albums, 2 of the best 90's alternative rock albums.
Can’t wait for you to hear “Cherub Rock”
My favorite Smashing Pumpkins song has got to be "Eye" off of the Lost Highway soundtrack. The beat is great, the lyrics are great, but the transitions -- the transitions are just awesome. Such a good song!
The live version with Marilyn Manson is so good.
Yes! I’ve been commenting every video about reacting to Eye! We need to push for it! It’s one of their best songs but it seems people have forgotten about it!
Holly crap I don’t know this song 😮
@@alfieholloway it’s wicked good. A hidden gem.
Pumpkins on a David Lynch soundtrack. Cant go wrong
Siamese Dream is the greatest album of the 90s. You should definitely react to the whole thing
30 years ago it was all I listened to, for years. I can still lose myself in SP 😊😊
"Cherub Rock" was their first hit, it's amazing, you'll see why it made them famous. Also, "Zero", "Today" and "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" were big hits, and all amazing as well.
I like to think this song encapsulates being a teenager in the 90s. I was one and it always hits home.
Somehow 1979 is like that even though it's not about the 90's. It just makes me feel like getting in my first car that had no A/C and driving around aimlessly because we had nothing else to do.
Billy Corgan is an emotional song writer. Ironically, he was at his best when he was unhappy and you can see that in the song writing in both Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. These three albums are undoubtedly among the top alternative albums of all time. When you get a chance, you should listen to them all from start to finish. You will not be disappointed. Not all the songs are "hits", but they all are worth listening to and represent a lot of the mellon collie overtones of the 90s. I personally recommend the song Jellybelly 😁
What’s ironic is this is literally like the only song Billy never wrote
James actually wrote this one , which is crazy, not only cuz of Billy’s control and ego we all know of, it’s also one of their best songs
@@ACarter87 James wrote the basic chords, but Billy wrote the lyrics and the melody.
I'd argue that there are few songwriters that aren't tapping the ol emotional well when doing their thing. The mood and overall tone varies wildly, but it's pretty much all emotion when music is the topic.
Glad to see you enjoying them so much. Even though they were selling out stadiums and headlining festivals in the 90s they're still one of the most criminally underrated bands of all time because the deeper cuts that fewer people are familiar with are *so* good.
Yes, this. People who think Today or 1979 are the pinnacle of the group literally have no idea. Those aren't even top 5 best songs by the band. Ruby, Porcelina, Mayonaise, Soma, Snail, For Martha (song about his deceased mom), Drown, and so so many more. The Machina 2 (not an official release) has some bangers that never got refined into full releases.
I have lyrics from this song tattooed. This song hits right in the feels every single time - from when I first purchased this album in the 90's, until now. It's seen me through a lot 🖤🖤
Polo you have 3 whole albums of this consistency.Gish. Siamese Dream. Mellon Collie. 3 masterpieces in a row. Adore and Machina are great as well. Pumpkins have an ENDLESS catalogue of good songs
Including a new 3-disc 2-hour-long album that came out this month... ATUM. If you want to get into it in pieces, start with Beguiled, and if you want an even better version, find the Jimmy Fallen show version. They killed it live and it's better than the recorded version.
All great albums BUT between Siamese Dream and MCIS is the crown jewel - the often unmentioned Pisces Iscariot album! If I were shipwrecked and could only have one album, its the one.
"be you, they'll adjust". i'm sure you've heard this before, but i really needed to hear that, so thank you.
One of my fav tracks off an incredible album. My room mate and I played guitar in college and we learned this song, including that two-guitar intro. We played it over and over, it's such a brilliant song
So glad you discovered this song. One of my all time favorite songs. Siamese Dream is a masterpiece from start to finish.
It was a joy watching you take it all in for the first time…brought me back to when I played that track over and over again.
"I just want to be me / when I can, I will"
My inner battle cry
Man the nostalgia and chills I get from this song are unmatched :( I was 18 when this song came out and it feels like yesterday :(
Their first full length offering "Gish" is a fantastic album. My favorite of all their pieces though has got to be the 4 song EP, Lull. It kicks off with "Rhinoceros", rolls into "Blue" (an amazing track), then is followed by my favorite of ALL their songs "Slunk", which just throws out some dynamic music, before finishing up with "Bye June".
This lil EP is just a bomb!!! Give it a spin. You won't be disappointed about giving this one the 15 minutes to listen to.
I've been a Pumpkins fan since early on but I never thought they'd be great live. Boy was I wrong. I've seen them several times in smaller theaters and small clubs and they truly rock. Their music is heavier than it seems at first. Some of the best shows I've ever seen.
This sing helped me get through my best friend passing in high school. Thanks for listening.
I retire after 30 years in the navy at the end of the month and remember listening to this in my room at my first training command . It was awesome to fall asleep to.
Finally you did it, I hope you enjoyed the beauty and the pain of it, it is a masterpiece from them. Thank you for finally checking them out AFTER 7 MONTHS OF LONG AWAITED REPLY.
Man, this album is pure gold from top to bottom. One thing I enjoyed about this video is that it wasn't that long, because sometimes the song is so good that you forget to stop to talk about it. Great vid!
Holy dang. I love this song. Geek USA and Hummer too.
I loved the smashing pumpkins growing up because even before I knew how to articulate the sentiment I could feel they were a band with Midwestern sensibilities that mirrored my own in many ways.
I am SO PHO KING happy you covered this Polo. I knew you were a Tool fan and recommended this in a comment. You have great fans and great ears for great music.
you found their greatest song and it didn't take you long. the guitars whistle on this bitch. probably the greatest song i've ever heard in my lifetime. certaintly my fave SP song bar none. the record should have been called "Sonic Dream" b/c that's what it is. it's a masterpiece of a record. top 3 records in my lifetime right here.
One of my favorite pumpkins songs of all time! The weird little hissing sound is from a really cheap guitar Billy bought and liked the sound so much he used it for the song... It's also kind of crazy how many good songs they have.
That sound is the whole song
This is my favorite wakeup alarm ringtone, because even when the intro gets loud, it's still soothing in a take your time way.
Great album, a masterpiece really. That intro is one of the greatest pieces of guitar music ever written.
Im glad you are getting turned on to all this awesome 90s rock. Sometimes I think it would be cool to have the people such as yourself who have a reaction channel to do a reverse day sometime where you pick a song that most of us may not have heard thats a favorite of yours and do a video with it.
I've always admired how absolutely deliberate Billy and the band are with their tones. It comes off as low fidelity but it is anything but. Very layered and beautiful.
That whole album is like a religious experience. Absolutely phenomenal.
Like the Beatles ?
Yes!!!!!!
I use to play this song and To Forgive from them when I was at rock bottom and needed something to help me vent. I still deal with the pain today, but I’m just glad I didn’t take my life and I’m still here holding on to hope. 🖤
I remember my friend in middle school making me listen to Gish. I was hooked right there. Awesome band!
So glad you've discovered the Pumpkins. They are one of my favorites, and they have a TON of great tunes.
Polo, TSP is a great road to travel with songs that just grab you with chill vibes (like Mayonnaise) or sudden blow your wig off chords (Cherub Rock). Great band and the more you discover, the more you'll come to realize just how overall great they are.
Don’t know how I hadn’t heard this song before but heard it in the finale the show Beef and it immediately became my favorite Smashing Pumpkins song
Billy corgan is a underated vocalist I love smashing pumpkins 🤘🔥🫶
The entire Siamese Dream album is iconic. A great listen all the way through.
Silver Fuck. Now that's a song title. And a real barn burner of a song!
When ticket prices weren’t crazy yet (2008-09) the pumpkins did a bit of a residency at the Tower theater outside of philly. 4 shows in 5 days. My buddy and bandmate were getting our masters together at Rutgers U and we went to all four shows. Smallish venue, different set list every night. We still talk about it. $40 a night made it manageable. One of the best weeks and experiences of my whole life.
I'd love to hear this song for the first time again. The Pumpkins are incredible! They've made A LOT of music. And they're kind of goofy as well.
The pumpkins are one of those bands that make "albums"... the songs work on their own...but to really appreciate the music on another layer, it would be worth listening to the entire album... Start with Siamese Dream and then Mellon Collie... The ones that come after are great albums as well. but these two records are near perfect from start to finish. It would be fun to watch a whole album reaction.
Start with Siamese Dream? Acting like Gish never happened. And Gish is fucking amazing.
Gish. Start with Gish.
Gish ftw
Has anyone said Jellybelly!?
Billy Corgan (singer) said that Butch Vig (producer) used techniques he learned from workin with The Smashing Pumpkins when he made Nevermind with Nirvana. Particularly Kurt’s guitar tone. Thats a really wild thing to think about!!!!
This song has my all time favourite guitar solo - brief and to the point, with a tone you feel like you can chew on. Wonderful
The whole “Siamese Dream” album is such a win. Not a bad song at all. “Hummer” would be my next suggestion.
This is REALLY my favourite band of all time but the three songs you reacted to may not be the pumpkins I necessarily concider my favourites. I tend to go for the heavier stuff and if you want to hear what a badass drummer Jimmy Chamberlin is you should check out Geek U.S.A., Cherub Rock, I Am One, Siva or X.Y.U. to name a few.
Oh dude this entire album is an utter masterpiece. It’s one of the epitomes of the 90’s. I could listen to this for the rest of my life and I plan on it.
A bit of trivia on that whistling sound on the guitars...
Billy Corgan explained it, he bought a "cheap guitar" (that was his phrase) and every time he stops strumming it produces the whistle, so he used that guitar for this song and now here we are..
Soma is a ridiculously good song...the whole of Siamese Dream and Gish are just the Pumpkins at their simplistic best...
All the pumpkins albums between Gish and Machina II are completely excellent. I personally don't think any of the songs on those albums are even average, they're literally all excellent.
The fact that you've listened to three songs and two of those weren't "hits" but epics in the SP catalogue, and you liked them is completely amazing. You'll love the hits I'm sure, but I'm really happy for you. You get to listen to all these songs for the first time. What a blessing it has been to see your channel, and to see you actually enjoying all this good rock music. Makes me feel good knowing there's a new pumpkins fan.
Still remember listening to this song for the first time and when the wall of guitars opens up it blew my mind.
so much fun watching someone else's mind get blown by this song. unbelievable track. incredible album. seeing SPs live in May 2024 and cannot wait.
Listen to Anything off the album Siamese Dream- Cherub Rock
Just listen to the whole of Siamese Dream. I can pretty much guarantee you'll appreciate the time spent.
My favorite band of all time. They're on tour this summer, get out and see them live
1994 I was 15 in the front row of a SMASHING PUMPKINS CONCERT in Dayton Ohio, it was MIND BLOWING! I was never the same after that show !!!!!!! The set list was stunning. Hard to pick but my favorite is LUNA but you can not go wrong with the pumpkins.. oh & I only paid $15 for general admission, then had to run as fast as I could for front row🏃♀️😂
This in 1993…pre iPhone, pre CZcams, pre iTunes, it is hard to explain how discovering this band especially this album felt back then.
My first music show, I was 14, lollapalooza 94, headlined by beastie boys and smashing pumpkins in Minneapolis… take me back
My fave 90s band! Cherub Rock, Space Boy, Eye, End is the Beginning is the End, Stand inside your love, Landslide cover... ❤ so good.
The Pumpkins should be in the R&R Hall of Fame!!!
This is some Bob Mould "wall of guitars" shit. Sounds like 27 guitars cracking it out in perfect time with each other. Not to mention the drumming. WOW. Thanks dude
This album was part of the soundrack of my high school life. It's so incredible seeing people just starting to get into the music I fell in love with when I was young. If this one is the sound of teenage angst, Adore is the sound of learning to grow up.
Drown, Cherub Rock, Hummer, Soma, etc, how many times I listen to these tracks summer time in my room in my youth
I’m so jealous of this man!!! I wish I could go back and listen to this song for this first time again.
