The Smashing Pumpkins have created one of the most acclaimed bodies of work in music history.  Formed in Chicago in 1988, they released Gish, their influential (and platinum) debut in 1991, which was followed by more platinum and multi-platinum albums including the nine-times platinum Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness and the four-times platinum Siamese Dream.  The pivotal group’s many hits include “Disarm,” “Today,” “Cherub Rock,” “1979,” “Tonight, Tonight” and “Bullet With Butterfly Wings”--songs that defined the alternative music era and continue to resonate on modern rock radio, influencing a whole new generation.

ZEITGEIST (Martha’s Music/Reprise) marks their sixth album and is their first of new material since 2000’s Machina/The Machines of God and the free, digital-only release Machina II/The Friends & Enemies of Modern Music.  ZEITGEIST represents the culmination of two years of work. www.myspace.com/smashingpumkins
