Last night, the legendary rock luminaries debuted their new single ‘Beguiled’ via a very special live video performance broadcasted exclusively via the bands’ Tik Tok account.

When The Smashing Pumpkins first emerged out of Chicago in 1988, the world had never heard a band quite like them. They spun together rock, pop, shoe-gaze, metal, goth, psychedelia, and electronic into a kaleidoscope of saccharine melodies, fuzzy distortion, bombastic orchestration, incendiary fretwork, eloquent songcraft, and unshakable hooks. 

As a result, they’ve sold over 30 million albums worldwide. Their catalog is highlighted by the platinum Gish [1991], the quadruple-platinum Siamese Dream [1993], diamond-certified Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness [1995], platinum Adore [1998], and gold Machina/The Machines of God [2000]. In 2018, they embarked on one of their most successful tours ever, the Shiny and Oh So Bright Tour, followed by SHINY AND OH SO BRIGHT, VOL. 1 / LP: NO PAST. NO FUTURE. NO SUN. Meanwhile, 2020 saw the release of the band’s eleventh full-length and latest double album, CYR. 

Next month, The Smashing Pumpkins will be embarking on their North American arena tour with special guests Jane’s Addiction and Poppy. News on 2023 UK dates to follow soon.

As prolific as ever, The Smashing Pumpkins will release their next album in 2023. More details to come.
