Call me when there actually is some. Thanks.

I don't know about you lot, but I really dislike the new logo. Pretty tacky, imho.

Agreed, would like to get a bit more of a timeframe on this new album or..anything at all really besides the large amount of rumours.

This has been floating around the internet for a couple of weeks. Could be real, could be fake. Who knows really.

Well it beats the crap outta that other banner, anyway.
I'm looking forward to this, though I do expect them to continue to be kinda past-it.

Looks pretty cool actually. Can't wait for new album

BleakestH · 12-10-2006 10:13am

I think i like the new logo because it reminds me of something from the SD days. hopefully the new album will rock the **** out of us all.

Acid_Violet · 12-10-2006 5:10pm

I like the poster that dead-air posted. It reminds ME of something out of Mellon-Collie era, when I was three/four years old and my favourite CD was written.

Mushy · 12-10-2006 7:55pm

Dont really care what the new logo is, once the cd is good, thats all that counts.

The first picture looks disturbingly similiar to american idiot... I hope Billy hasn't turned pro anti-bush (if you follow)

I'd say that's pretty unlikely...I hope.

Yeah, it does remind me also of 'American Idiot' or My Chemical Romances new concept 'The Black Parade'

Well billy is longer the sarcastic ass-hole we all know and love, now he's become all *shudders* catholic. Apparently it makes him happy, but I just warning you that this album is liable to be ANYTHING.....

Billy's got a hard-on for emo-boys

Says the person who was barely an itch in their father's trowsers when the Pumpkins formed!

I'll be interested to hear what they come up with. Took some time to get my head around the couple of previous releases, but I don't think they're bad albums at all. Siamese Dream will always be one of my favorite albums and I use it as a yard stick for a lot of music, so roll on the release of some music and lets not worry about posters

BTW, did many of you hear the Machina II stuff that got leaked onto the net about 5/6 years ago? Very hit and miss in places, overall good though.

Yeah some really good songs and remixes in there. It didn't 'leak' though, the album was never on sale. Billy and co made 20 or 25 pressings of the album on vinyl and gave them to friends etc with the instruction to make it available on the net for free. Pretty cool gesture.

BleakestH · 16-10-2006 2:11pm

Machina II was pretty cool, although some of the songs were poor enough, there was enough really good material on there to comprise an album that would have been a lot better than Machina I.

Looks like Jimmy C is starting a Myspace blog soon: http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=9685952&blogID=181641657&MyToken=cca392e3-3fe5-4c89-b3d1-e22613d22e69
