The year 2000 saw a end of one of the most original bands of there era, the smashing pumpkins had finaly played there last gig.
Billy corgan the lead signer ana a gitarist for the band quikly went on to form Zwan with the former pumpkins drummer Jimmy Chamberlin. But it just wasn't the pumpkins, and after only one album release they broke up.
A few years have passed and Billys back with his first solo album.
So is he back on form? YES , im very happy to say . with Future Embrace he is back on form producing pumping and beutifull rock.
From a production point of view billy has obiously decided to go for a highly produced electronic sound, with a drum machien almost used thruout ,and ever other instrument going through somesort of electronic process. I dare say alot of the sounds might not be instrument at all in the conventiall sence. The closest i can releate this to in his former work is probabally machiena and machena II(available as a free offical download). but without so much of the really fast tracks-I cant imagine he will be giving headbanging gigs to promote this tour.
The songs are emotionally writen right from the first song, and are resnablely upbeat with 'all things change' being a song about him moving on after a hard period in his life. As seems to be a thing of his past few releases he sings about love and hope in alot of the songs. He also manages to fit in a rather nice cover of tolovesomebody which is done with a heavy electronic sound that fits in well with the rest of the album.
I dont want to say much more other than you wont be disapointed with this album if your a fan. If your new to him id recomend maybe listinging to 'machiena'(smashing pumpkins) and the masterpiece that is 'infinite sadness'(smashing pumpkins)
Thanks - go and buy it

I am sorry but you really need to run this through a spellchecker as there are far too many mistakes. If you correct all the errors let me know and I will take another look.

Advantages: New music from Billy, a fresh direction that often satisfies. Nice cover art and booklet Disadvantages: Not anywhere near as good as the pumpkins. Might not stand up to repeated listenning
