The Smashing Pumpkins

Led by Billy Corgan, The Smashing Pumpkins blended alternative rock, grunge, and psychedelic influences into a sound all their own. Their 1993 album Siamese Dream was a critical and commercial hit, with tracks like “Today” and “Disarm” helping to solidify their place in ’90s rock. Their 1995 double album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness was even more ambitious, featuring hits like “1979” and “Bullet with Butterfly Wings.” Corgan’s complex songwriting and the band’s shifting dynamics marked their music as consistently innovative, despite various lineup changes.
