Modern day Smashing Pumpkins. The community is very split these days.

It doesn’t help that Billy Corgan is a MAGA Republican.

Worked with Billy about a year ago on his wrestling program.

I heard him tell a small audience of people that he was, "Rock n' Roll."

The context was in regards to covid protocols, something like "I'm Rock n' Roll and all, but we've gotta do what the facility says..."

Not the worst in context I suppose, but I just couldn't get past, "I'm Rock n' Roll", falling out of his mouth.

He’s such a douche.

I didn't even realize they were still around. Is the new music more hard rock, or more of some of the soft shit they put out?

[–] xfts 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The majority of it is softer. There's been a lot more synthesizer keyboard type stuff since 2018 or so. Jimmy and James are also back in the band.
