LABEL: Virgin
VINYL RELEASE DATE: 12/04/2012

Though theyd been alt-rock titans since the dawn of the Nineties, Smashing Pumpkins wildly-eclectic, ideas-stuffed and legacy-defining third album may be their finest hour. Mellon Collie is Billy Corgans feverishly inspired opus of metal-plated riffage (Bullet with Butterfly Wings, Zero), symphonic rock (Tonight, Tonight) and electronics-pulsing coming-of-age anthems (1979). The 28-song epic also sports a treasure trove of deep cuts. One of the eras most bombastic rock albums, now delivered as a deluxe, four-album box set.
