And then there were two. With the departure of Mike Byrne and Nicole Fiorentino, Corgan led the charge with guitarist Jeff Schroeder to make 2014's Monuments To An Elegy. An album with nods to its rock past as well as the Pumpkins' synthy future. Joining Frank as guest co-host to do a track-by-track breakdown of this album is former guest of the 'kast, Stephen Patrick Zapata-Kelly! Down a drummer, Corgan & Schroeder turned to Mötley Crüe's Tommy Lee for an assist to achieve the bombastic and skilled attack needed to match the energy of the songs (as well as Rage Against The Machine's Brad Wilk on drums and The Killer's Mark Stoermer on bass for live shows). As the Teargarden project aspirations faded away (and with the subsequent abandonment of the Day For Night album), the future of the Pumpkins was looking dire once again. Luckily, time has shown that the Pumpkins are still going strong and with hindsight, a revisit of Monuments yields great rewards. Especially for fans who may not love the sounds of CYR or Atum (even though we get some glances in a few of Monuments' tracks). Ultimately, Monuments is an album that Stephen and Frank agree is "like a good slice of pizza". Lover, you're strange if you miss this episode! How to support the 'kast: NEW !

On this 99th episode of SP - A to Z, Jason and Jon discuss a classic Siamese Dream outtake, an obscure song used in a film that no one seems to know much about, a pair of Chicagokid songs, the rawest track off Machina II, and a little Teargarden track that Jon wants to write a whole 33 1/3 book about!
It's another installment of our listener chats, Pumpkinheads, and joining us this time is indie musician and artist Huron John! We discuss how his work is influenced by the Pumpkins, keeping the DIY ethos alive, and what it's like being a "Gen Z" Pumpkins fan (and the ridiculousness of these generational labels). We also delve into the inner workings of Spotify and the new gatekeepers of today's music industry, what Tame Impala and My Bloody Valentine have in common with the Pumpkins, and the rich tapestry that is Billy's vision for the band. We all relate on the idea of Mellon Collie training our young ears for a diverse musical palette, and Huron shares some SP memories like seeing the Pumpkins in Chicago with his Dad and visiting the record store to buy the Teargarden box set. All that plus the importance of physical media, more love for CYR and that feeling when art finds you in the right place and time. Hope that place and time for you and this episode is HERE and NOW because it's a great one! Check out Huron's brand new album Cartoon Therapy (and the boardgame-inspired vinyl release of it on June 17th)!

Jason and Jon continue their trip through the letter T! They talk Adore (and pick their favorite and least favorite tracks from the album), Zwan, Teargarden, and two variations on an MCIS classic for the ages.
Jason and Jon get closer to finishing the letter S, and discuss a Teargarden tune, a song that maybe shares the same name origin as another popular band from the 90s, a haunting BC solo track, a classic demo-turned-album cut, and a Gish-era psych track sampled by Tricky!
Jason and Jon continue through the letter S. This discuss a gem off of Teargarden by Kaleidyscope, a song that was slated for an SP record (or two) but ended up on a WPC solo album, an acoustic Adore outtake that somehow doesn't 'sound' like Adore to Jason and Jon, a live improvisation that captures the elusive fun side of SP, and a long lost MCIS outtake.
The gang plows onward with Senor Corgan's aborted epic project about tarot cards of whatever he was trying to accomplish.

Jason and Jon finish up discussing the letter O. They take on 6 songs: a solo Zwan song, a couple of Mashed Potatoes live tracks, an Adore demo, an obscure early live track, and one of the finest tracks of the Teargarden era.
