Smashing Pumpkins - Communion [2008 secret/lost album]
In the wake of Zeitgeist, there was a brief mini-era during the 2008 shows where Corgan was seemingly looking for the next direction before landing on the idea for Teagarden. In amongst a few more Zeitgeistian metallic/shoegaze leaning tracks like FOL and Superchrist, he wrote about a dozen songs in a spiritually-themed, country-infused style, only studio-recording a handful of them, before seemingly changing direction and moving on. The American Gothic EP (four songs) is reasonably well-known to fans, the tracks on the If All Goes Wrong DVD (five songs) less so though still far from being unknown altogether, plus a smattering of others (one here but there may have been a couple more?) only getting an airing or two on stage before being consigned to history, which are less well-known again. I’ve compiled these tracks into an album, arranged for flow rather than chronology. Given the different sources, I’ve used Audacity to change levels, add compression and a bit of reverb, etc., to get the volumes to balance out from track-to-track. Nothing drastic, but please note if you want to hear these songs as originally released you’ll have to find a different source. I think it’s a great record. Brilliant performances, the If All Goes Wrong band tracks show a real cohesion and lightness of touch which is quite un-Pumpkins-like, with Corgan really embracing some stripped down and organic songwriting after The Big Comeback Statement Album. It’s a (big ol’ country cowboy) hat he wears well, I think. Sunkissed is the most underrated song in the entire SP discography - fight me. Enjoy! {00:00} 01 - Communion {03:56} 02 - 99 Floors {12:03} 03 - The Rose March {16:34} 04 - Peace + Love {22:06} 05 - Again, Again, Again (The Crux) {25:46} 06 - Mama {29:11} 07 - Pox {32:45} 08 - No Surrender {37:04} 09 - Sunkissed {42:14} 10 - Promise Me {46:10} 11 - Medallia of the Grey Skies [Bonus; Live] #smashingpumpkins #thesmashingpumpkins #billycorgan #zeitgeist #ifallgoeswrong #americangothic #teargardenbykaleidyscope #2008 #2009 #alternativerock #altrock #altcountry #99floors #therosemarch #peaceandlove #againagainagain #mama #pox #nosurrender #sunkissed #promiseme #medalliaofthegreyskies
