Last year, Billy Corgan called the Smashing Pumpkins' future “murky.” These days, however, it’s looking quite bright – including a tour and a new album.

Like musical notes, the individual elements on the cover of Smashing Pumpkins' 1995 opus are relatively meaningless on their own – but together, they tell a beautiful story.

Although the world might have lost David Bowie, cover songs from the likes of Nirvana, Beck, the White Stripes and Foo Fighters prove his legacy will live forever.

Billy Corgan was asked if he would be interested in reuniting or finding out about former Smashing Pumpkins members James Iha and D'Arcy Wretzky.

Reliability isn't exactly a defining quality of a rock star. Here are 15 albums that were started (and sometimes finished) but never got an official release.

According to Corgan, the record company killed the chances of 'Drown' becoming Smashing Pumpkins' first big hit.

If you ever find yourself searching for an example of how friction and emotional turmoil can lead to musical brilliance, look no further than 'Siamese Dream.'

Billy Corgan received a co-writing credit on Miguel's 'Wildheart' track, "Leaves," for its similarities to the Samshing Pumpkins’ hit, “1979.”

If you can move past the baggage that comes from a comeback album without half the original members, Smashing Pumpkins' 'Zeitgeist' holds up surprisingly well.

Legendary original drummer Jimmy Chamberlin has rejoined the band for the Smashing Pumpkins' 2015 North American tour with Marilyn Manson.
