Episode Details

In 1998 The Smashing Pumpkins returned to us in a different shape than before. Now there were only three, and what remained of the band felt like grief in a gothic gown, introspective and embracing solitude. Somehow Adore mirrored where I found myself as a young man learning to be alone for the first time, and this album has only matured over time. Join me this week as we revisit this divisive departure we found ourselves in Once Upon a Time.
