It's not that good. I'll stick with Siamese Dream.

It's solidly mediocre. Not worthy of the Pumpkins name in my opinion.

Even Adore and Machina I, the albums that lots of people hate, are still much better.

Agreed. I bought it today, and I wasn't really that impressed. When I heard about the Smashing Pumpkins reunion, I thought the original band was getting back together, but that was not the case, and it shows. There are a few tracks I like, but the rest all sound the same to me.

It reminds me of the Weezer releases in the early 2000s: it's like they gave up, and basically said "yeah, we're in it for the money..."

Who cares about the other band members... Smashing Pumpkins IS Billy Corgan.

They shouldn't have released Tarantula as the first single IMO.

There are a few songs I like off the album and it may grow on me but right now I still rank it last compared to all the other Pumpkin albums.

This is so true. SP is Corgans baby.

I like it, it has a couple cool songs but nothing compared with old Smashing Pumpkins. Its kinda goofy how everyone feels the same way..

Give me Mellon Collie over Zeitgeist anyday.

Maybe D'Arcy and James Iha had more influence on the band than people think.

To be honest listening to this album just makes me want to go back and listen to old SP. The songs on Zeitgeist that I like, I really like, but seriously I think the rest is pretty bad.
And who knows maybe it will grow on me.

Anyone got tickets for this tour or have seen them already? I might go to the MN date.
