Just in case there was any doubt how musically talented this band was... Holy fuck.
There’s plenty of upside to the collapse of the record industry of the 20th century, but here’s one thing we may never see again: a legit band like this being given the money to spend 8 months straight in the best studios in the world to make a grandiose double concept record. Anyone can make a record now, but there’s a reason Mellon Collie sounds the way it does. It’s not just the four brilliant artists (you see it in this video); there’s a team of talented and trained people working in their favour, in a very well-equipped and expensive space, making this happen. I’m just glad it did. A friend told me something that I quote often: [as an artist and human being] Be thankful that you live in a universe where you had Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness to listen to as a teenager...

I dunno what i is, but every time i see Billy, for a split second i think he's British. He doesn't come off as American, until you hear him speak.
613 songs later... incredible genius, that man is....
WOW. This is what the original conception of Mellon Collie sounds like. Staggering. Sounds out drunk and with a bunch of flubs. turns into one of the most gorgeous pieces of music ever conceived. Interspersed by more flubs. I LOVE IT!!!!! So human. SO GORGEOUS!!!
It's fascinating seeing a lot of the clips that appear in "Pastichio Medley" in more extended versions, and with video as well. Great stuff!
Riffs and melodies drip off him in this 90s era like burning candlewax
I love MCIS.... My favorite album and this change my life

Corgan with hair! I miss the Meloncollie and the Infinite Sadness days. Jellybelly, F.U. and Ode to No One, Tribute to Johnny Winter, Muzzle, Porcelina of the Vast Oceans, Tales of a Scorched Earth, and Thru the Eyes of Ruby, and Set the Ray to Jerry, were my favorite drum songs from that time period. In particular, the intro and outro, for Jellybelly, and the drum fill before the guitar solo for Fuck You. Coolest bass-line goes to the mid-section of Tribute to Johnny.

D'arcy holds it down just fine; she's hardly "horrible" or anything of the sort. She's not a master of her instrument like Billy, but then few are. They only fired her after a decade with the band when her personal problems got out of hand. If she'd really sucked, Billy would've fired her before they even had an album out.

XYU and Thru the Eyes of Ruby both super early incarnations. I'd love to see how those got fine tuned and if it was Flood seeing something in them that made them worth working on or Billy really wanting them or the rest of the band's input. I knew Muzzle had like a dozen lyric rewrites but it's crazy seeing these songs I know by heart in such early forms.
the first five minutes of the mellon collie intro evoke so much emotion. Way better than the album version.

Matt Kaz times changed, music has changed. Not selling out but making music to fit the new generation in the alt form. Not saying the other band members from the beginning had nothing to do with it but I’d say that music 20+ years ago was just different then what people put out now and that’s a big reason why people feel this way that the quality isn’t there. But no matter what Corgan is still a great songwriter who contributed the most, which him thinking that and others led to the original bands down fall. Which I’m with you though their albums of the 90’s kicked ass compared to what has been released since the beginning of the new millennium.
