Rotten Apples: Greatest Hits gathers a decade of The Smashing Pumpkins onto one CD, the band's own summing-up after they called it quits in 2000.
Released in 2001, the set traces Billy Corgan's restless band from the fuzz-drenched alternative rock of their early albums through the arena-sized ambition of the mid-nineties and the colder electronic textures that followed. Few groups of the era swung so wildly between tenderness and noise, and fewer made both sound this inevitable.
The hits arrive in rough chronological order, so you can hear the evolution happen. Cherub Rock still opens like a wall of guitars breaking through cloud cover, while Today hides a darker lyric inside one of the sunniest riffs of the decade. Tonight, Tonight sweeps in on strings worthy of a film score, and 1979 rides a looping, hazy groove that sounds like suburban nostalgia caught on tape.
Later tracks catch the band's final, more electronic phase, with a then-new song serving as a parting shot before the lights went down.
For newcomers it is the cleanest way in, and for long-time fans it is a reminder of how much ground one band covered in barely ten years. Turn it up, then turn it up again, and let the guitars do the talking.
