- Episode 77: Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream Greg Potters 36:48
In this episode, we are going back to 1993. The Seattle grunge scene was in full swing. Most bands of that era were releasing their 2nd and 3rd albums. But in this mix, was a quartet from Chicago, Illinois who fit in somewhat with the early 90s grunge scene, although they were based out of a different city. A city, mind you, that has birthed SEVERAL amazing musicians and bands such as “Chicago”, Wilco, The Paul Butterfield Blues Band, Ministry, Earth Wind & Fire, Freddy Jones Band, Veruca Salt and many more.
But unlike these groups I just mentioned, this band was different. And on July 27th 1993 Smashing Pumpkins released their 2nd studio album, one that I consider a masterpiece and today, Siamese Dream. I’m going to take you back to remind you just how masterful this album was, or still is!
I’m going to take you beyond the hits which were Cherub Rock, Today, and Disarm, and give you the full experience of what the back half of this classic record was like.
So grab your favorite libation, sit back or enjoy your drive or walk right now and check out my review of Smashing Pumpkins 1993 release, Siamese Dream. Grip it and rip it..
