Formed in the early 90s under the ardent guidance of the brilliant and charismatic Billy Corgan, the Smashing Pumpkins have been able to challenge every label, crossing genres and decades with a chameleon-like ability that few bands can boast.
From the distorted and dreamy sounds of masterpieces such as “Siamese Dream” (1993) to the epic symphony of “Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness” (1995), a double album that wrote the history of music, The Smashing Pumpkins have created a unique sound universe: an overwhelming mix of grunge, shoegaze, heavy metal, psychedelia and majestic orchestrations. “Bullet With Butterfly Wings”, “Tonight, Tonight”, “1979” – songs infused with rebellious energy and a melancholic poetry that speaks to entire generations. Their songs are not just music, but emotional experiences, a journey into the dark and light side of the human soul, driven by the unmistakable voice of Corgan and the imposing guitars that lash like electric storms.
In an era where rock seemed already defined, the Pumpkins broke the rules, becoming symbols of innovation and introspection. After more than thirty years, their myth continues to grow, continuing to inspire and enchant. The concerts are pure sonic catharsis: shows of light and sound that
drag spectators on a journey between the glorious past and a future yet to be written.
THE SMASHING PUMPKINS are not just a band: they are a living legend!
