    so all the b-sides have actually leaked too? all i've heard is "Death From Above" and "Gossamer (Live)"

    and as far as the album goes...i'm pretty disappointed so far and i'm a big smashing pumpkins fan...but thats only after 2 listens so maybe it'll grow on me...it's not bad but as of right now i rank it as my least fav album

    No, only Death From Above has leaked. Gossamer has no studio version anounced yet.

    I really am liking this CD. There are a few songs that I think are just 'alright' but the first 7 or 8 songs are all amazing! A+! I like the flow of the record overall though. I think the only problem that I am having is I love the older SP stuff so much it's kind of hard to compare this with Gish/SD/MCIS/Adore, and even Machina. I do think this is way better then antyhing Billy has done since Adore.

    I give it a thumbs up! :O)

    I'm having trouble getting into this. It just doesn't sound like a true Smashing Pumpkins to me...yet.

    that's how i am...tho i do really like gossamer a lot and wish it woulda been on this album...hopefully there is a studio version out there somewhere
  • I've listened to "Zeitgeist" about 5 times now, and I think it shapes up well... It's definately the poppiest of the Pumpkins albums.

    I think the first seven tracks (thru United States) sound vintage Pumpkins, hard rockers, and come across well... The last 5 songs aren't bad, they are just a lot different.

    Take '(Come On) Let's Go' that has commercial single written all over it, very bouncy.

    Some of the stuff at the end of the disc, along with the b-side 'Death From Above' sound like maybe they were left over from Billy's solo project, more synthy/electronic driven numbers.

    All in all, I like the way it stacks up and I'd say it's the 3rd best Pumpkins album to date, behind SD and MCIS. It's a shame Gossamer didn't make the album.
