Album Notes & Community Reviews

The debut solo venture from the Smashing Pumpkins frontman sharply pivots away from alternative rock towards dense, 1980s-inspired synthpop. Featuring collaborations with Robert Smith of The Cure, the production relies heavily on drum machines and layered synthesizers, masking his signature guitar work within cold, electronic textures.
