Two SP references in the last "Girls" episode..First one a very cool Mellon Collie T-shirt. Then Ray is listening to Today.

Nice.

As perfect as Siamese Dream is, I could probably go the rest of my life without hearing Disarm again.

I'm definitely on a Pumpkins kick right now. Anyone else hear the similarities between the Spaceboy and Footsteps (PJ) riff?

Love the pumpkins, they are one of my favorite bands.
I actually think their 4 first albums are all pretty great (maybe 5)

Who else thinks Mellon Collie should have been one record?

or, if it had to be a double record, I wish it incorporated more of the b-sides from those sessions. There are some remarkable songs hiding there

I'd cut it downt o

Tonight Tonight
Jellybelly
Zero
Here is No Why
Bullet with Butterfly Wings
To Forgive
An Ode to No One
Love
Galapogos
Muzzle
Bodies
33
In the Arms of Sleep
1979

I guess my only real issue is that i lose interest after 1979

Stumbeline, Cupid, and Where Boys Fear to Tread are also pretty good

I prefer Mellon Collie as a double album, I really like almost everything in it
And Porcelina, Thru the eyes of ruby and By starlight are some of my favs by them.

As I admitted elsewhere, I listened through Mellon Collie for the first time just a few days ago despite having been a casual fan of these guys for at least 10 years. I'm not a fan of trimming double albums, especially really good ones.

He looks more like Spenno. Anyway I couldn't pass on the opportunity of a lame joke but the truth is I don't have an opinion on this band, never heard anything except a couple hits. I assume they were hits anyway.
