The Smashing Pumpkins rarely do something without some flair! ATUM is due out on April 21, 2023. A Rock Opera in 3 Acts, 11 songs per Act so we are getting 33 new songs from The Smashing Pumpkins! 'Beguiled' is the first single out.

So we get 33 songs AND we get thirty-three podcasts with William Patrick Corgan. A PODCAST devoted to a song at a time.  Thirty-Three with William Patrick Corgan. Corgan calls it a deep dive. Beware when you go to listen, there are a bunch of commercials before it starts, but don't be thwarted! It is well worth the wait. Not only do you hear a new track each week, but they discuss past songs. Billy Corgan does the podcast with co-hosts Joe Galli and Kyle Davis. There are many special guests on the podcast including Butch Vig of Garbage, Tommy Lipnick, Willow Smith and  MANY MORE to come. They are on Episode 7 as I write this so there are 26 more episodes yet to come. We get one per week.

For Smashing Pumpkins fans and Music Enthusiasts, the Podcast is some tremendous listening.  I am binge listening!!  You get to check out the first 7 songs now.
