Synths up, guitars down: The Smashing Pumpkins' CYR is Billy Corgan's bold 2020 detour into dark, glittering synth-pop, presented here on CD.
Coming two years after the reunion album Shiny and Oh So Bright, which brought James Iha back into the fold, CYR swapped the band's trademark wall of distortion for drum machines, keyboards and choirs of backing vocals. Corgan produced the twenty-song set himself, and the result is moody, melodic and unashamedly eighties-flavoured, recalling the cold new wave records that shaped his teenage years.
The title track Cyr is perhaps the clearest statement of intent, its pulsing synths and sleek chorus sounding miles from the grunge years. The Colour of Love opens the album with drive and gloss, while Confessions of a Dopamine Addict pairs a dancey rhythm with Corgan's unmistakable sneer. Wrath brings a darker, more dramatic edge, its melody rising over a bed of shimmering electronics.
Fans expecting Siamese Dream may be surprised, but those willing to follow the band's restless creativity will find plenty to love. CYR is a reminder that the Pumpkins have always been more adventurous than their nineties reputation suggests, and it rewards anyone who lets its long, glossy run play out in full.
