I heard a live broadcast of a Smashing Pumpkins concert once on the radio in the mid-90s. They sounded horrible. Some bands I just prefer in pre-recorded format.

I wasn't aware that the Smashing Pumpkins had reunited. I know Billy Corgan did several producing gigs for other artists and had a pet project called Zwan (which I hated), but can you send me a link to something on the new album? I'm curious.

here's a wiki article on it: Zeitgeist (The Smashing Pumpkins album - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

Thanks. I found a link that streamed me the single, "Tarantula". I like it, but I'm curious to hear the rest of the album.

I have also heard the Tarantula song, on the Radio.

San Antonio station.

I would recommend Wilco (A.M., Being There, Mermaid Avenue) and Fugazi.

Motley Crue (self titled 94 release)
Motley Crue (Generation Swine)

Nirvana, Bush, Pearl Jam, or any other grunge band. Orgy, Korn, Limp Bizkit (lol), old Staind (Dysfunction), Primus, Alice In Chains, Marilyn Manson (Mechnical Animals!), NWA, Ace of Base, MC Hammer, Vanilla Ice, and many more!

Either that or the start of Faithless - Insomnia. That's such a timeless classic as well.

I too missed the 80's and the 90's.

Skunk Anansie was a great little British band
