What is smashing pumpkins?

An alternative rock band lead by Billy Corgan, (who's voice is very awesome and original, but disliked by many idiots )from the late 80's until their breakup in 2000.

The Jewish teen watched in amazement at the screen, feeling a rush of nostalgia as the Smashing Pumpkins DVD played in front of him.

....to other gay ass losers who only limit themselves to the radio and mtv, Smashing Pumpkins are "weird".
who the hell cares if the lead guy is pratically bald?? atleast he sings about shit other than shooting people and having sex like 50 cent...or molest 14 year old girls like R.Kelly.

What does "smashing pumpkins" mean?

An amazing alternative rock band that recently got back together and is currently in the studio working on a new album!

After listening to "Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness," I had reached the conclusion that The Smashing Pumpkins are one of the best rock bands in history.

One of my (and plenty of other people's) favourite band. Their music is embracing and can be light and soft like "Soothe" from the album "Pisces Iscariot" or dark and heavy like "Zero" from the album "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness", and anywhere in between.

Smashing pumpkins

A very good alt-Rock band of the late 80's and early/late 90's. Fronted by Billy Corgan who did vocals,James Iha played guitar, D'arcy Wretzky played bass, and Jimmy Chamberlin played drums. It has been a rumor that ever since the group started the band has had tension between them, musically or personally, nobody really knows. And how they lasted for as long as they had is unknown as well. But they are a band that had left an influence on Rock. they touched upon arena Rock that had never been fully touched upon in the 70's. Most people just like their early albums such as Gish,Siamese Dream and Mellon-Collie and the Infinite Saddness. I love these albums but I think their later efforts such as Adore and Machina are very good and complex albums even though they didnt stay true to their original sound. It just proves that the Smashing Pumpkins are a very talented band and can manipulate any genre of rock music. Billy Corgan has one of the most unique voices in Rock and his influence in the smashing pumpkins will be missed.
Also, BILLY CORGAN KILLER ILL KILL YOU DONT DISS ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS.

Smashing Pumpkins albums:
Gish
Siamese Dream
Mellon-Collie and the Infinite Sadness
Adore
Machina:The Machines of God
Machina II:The Friends and Enemies of Modern Music
Note: Machina II was never released in stores if u want to get the tracks of this album you have to search for it on the internet.
