Machina I & II first. Hoping to have an update on that soon.
The hype is probably the first era of the band up to the Metro show-wonder what of their later albums is getting the most love. I saw their 3rd or something show back in London in 2007, would love to know if any good recordings of that are floating around.
Zeitgeist is a fucking beast of a record. I actually had hoped BC and JC would carry on together like that as a two piece.
yeah, I really don't get how it didn't really seem to catch on. I LOVED that album.

Still have the flag you sent me! It’s hanging in the basement near my drum kit!
I loved Zeitgeist too. To me it felt like the most pumpkins sounding record I'd head since MCIS. I don't suppose it ever got pressed on vinyl?
Not sure, I remember the different versions that all had a different unreleased song on it. Some really good ones! I think they are all collected as a playlist on YouTube somewhere.
Yeah I have the 2 coloured Zeitgeist singles but the full album never made it to vinyl. They were pushing multiple cd formats and packaging heavily back then. I've never owned the album because assumed it would come to vinyl and didn't want to buy twice. I guess I could pick up the cd really cheap now.

Found this as I got curious. He seems to have really thin skin. It’s a shame. Art is art and not every is going to get it.
A little while back, Billy Corgan pulled the 2007 Smashing Pumpkins album Zeitgeist from streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music. Corgan reflected on this decision during recent Instagram story Q&A’s.
So you took Zeitgeist off streaming services because you’re unhappy with the mix?
“No, I took it off because everyone told me it was no good. So I said, OK #becarefulwhatyouwishfor.”
I really wish I could’ve heard Zeitgeist before it was taken off music platforms.
“Me too. Shame those albums are so poor that they had to disappear.”
Why don’t people just buy Zeitgeist CD if they wanna hear it so bad? I have 4 diff versions.
“I have 3,000 copies in storage that label sold me for scrap (They were going to destroy them rather than store). IF you really want them.”
Guess I’ll just email ZuZu’s and ask to buy one. SP fell of my radar between Adore and Oceania so I’ve barely listened to anything from that gap
I bought it digitally back in the day. I somehow got one with bonus live tracks, but can't find any information on it (or if those tracks were just added by a fan to a torrent).

Post 2000 SP has been very uninteresting for me. I tried to like Zeitgeist, but it’s meh. If he remixes it, I may give it a chance. The original mixing was brutal.

My sense is he'll follow through with it. He's mentioned it enough times on Instagram live chats that I think we'll see it happen.
Loved them on the Zeitgeist tour, only ruined slightly by all the people who didn't love them and just spoke through the whole show, or shouted for Hummer for 2.5 hours.

hadn’t thought about that album for a long time, just went to get it and it’s nowhere to be found

edit: I guess I know why....there's no release listed on discogs for a US release of this. Europe, Mexico, Canada, Australia, Argentina and the UK.

Have to say, I’m a bigger fan of Oceania. Favorite of the post break up albums.
