....to other gay ass losers who only limit themselves to the radio and mtv, Smashing Pumpkins are "weird".
who the hell cares if the lead guy is pratically bald?? atleast he sings about shit other than shooting people and having sex like 50 cent...or molest 14 year old girls like R.Kelly.
An alternative rock band lead by Billy Corgan, (who's voice is very awesome and original, but disliked by many idiots )from the late 80's until their breakup in 2000.

Music Revolutionists: The Smashing Pumpkins

These four people made some of the best music of the Alternative Rock movement of the 90s. Hits included Disarm, Tonight, 1979, and Bullets with Butterfly Wings. There best albums are Mellan Chollie and the Infinite Sadness, Gish, and Siamese Dreams.
Better than any music of todays generation. Rap is Krap kiddies. 50 cent is really a pansy.
The smashing Pumpkins, gods of Alt Rock
An act that immediately preceeds being chased by the owners of said pumpkins
I was smashing pumpkins last halloween, and this crazy lady chased me in her car for a while
In response to definition #7, there was officially no "The" in the name of the band (as far as the print on album covers) until the release of Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness in 1995. You're not clever, guy.
"What's the best album of all time, d00d?"
"Why, it's Siamese Dream by Smashing Pumpkins, of course!"
"Thx!"
One of my (and plenty of other people's) favourite band. Their music is embracing and can be light and soft like "Soothe" from the album "Pisces Iscariot" or dark and heavy like "Zero" from the album "Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness", and anywhere in between.
