A tribute album collecting together covers of Smashing Pumpkins songs is forthcoming, featuring a wealth of rock talent.
The album is to be released by MySpace Records and given away with the July issue of Spin magazine, and its tracklisting looks like this:
Panic! At The Disco - 'Tonight Tonight' (+44) - 'I Am One' The Academy Is - 'Mayonnaise' Deftones - 'Siva' 30 Seconds To Mars - track TBC The Bravery - 'Rocket' Young Love - '1979' The New Amsterdams - 'Thirty Three' Test Your Reflex - 'Ava Adore' Ben Kweller - 'Today' Hawthorne Heights - 'Bullet With Butterfly Wings' Gliss - 'Rhinoceros'
I like Deftones. We were just talking about them in the office, actually. What else came out of nu-metal that was any good, really? That said, I saw that tossbag singer out of DiSturbed on Cribs the other night - he's clearly done okay through singing like an ape with its nuts in a tiger's jaws.
