Mellon Collie and The Infinite Sadness is The Smashing Pumpkins at their most ambitious, a sprawling 1995 double album presented here as a 2CD edition.
Billy Corgan set out to make a defining statement, and he did it with 28 songs split across two discs, moving from daybreak to starlight. Working with producers Flood and Alan Moulder, the band, with James Iha, D'arcy Wretzky and Jimmy Chamberlin, built a record that swings between crushing alternative rock, dreamy ballads and orchestral grandeur without ever losing its emotional core.
Tonight, Tonight is the sweeping centrepiece, strings soaring over Chamberlin's rolling drums in a song that feels like pure, defiant hope. Bullet With Butterfly Wings brought the raw fury, a seething, quiet-loud anthem that became a rallying cry for a generation of disaffected teens. 1979 is the opposite: wistful, shimmering and nostalgic, a perfect snapshot of suburban youth. Zero snarls with heavy, grinding guitars and Corgan's sneering vocal.
Elsewhere, Porcelina Of The Vast Oceans stretches out into a nine-minute epic, and Thirty-Three offers a gentle, intimate moment amid the storm.
It is excessive in all the right ways, a landmark of nineties rock that still feels huge, and a record fans return to again and again.
