New Smashing Pumpkins Single - Tarantula
Hey all, here is a link to the new Pumpkins single:
http://flv2mp3.com/delivery/11795262...390_396181.mp3
Any thoughts? I'm actually really surprised, I expected it to absolutely suck but it sounds pretty damn good.

It's pretty catchy but still decently heavy (for Pumpkins) I enjoyed the guitar. When does their album come out? I might have to check it out.

I'm pretty sure it's due out in another month or two. I'm actually surprised it hasn't leaked yet, I thought it would be out there by now. I wasn't expecting much at all but this new single is pretty decent outside of the lyrics.

Yeah pretty much.
I wasn't impressed at all by Korgan's singing though, seems to really have lost some of it.
But it was pretty decent.

Something is wrong with this, it sounds live, or in studio or something. It's a good song, but it doesn't sound fully complete, I don't know why.
And wow, I agree, Corgan has lost a step. Otherwise good song though.

It needs more cowbell.

I echo that. It sounded like his voice was fading in/out a bit, it just wasn't consistant.

I will somewhat agree though. It has the basics of a good song, just seems to be missing a lil mojo or something.
Is this a leaked song, or there new single that they put out?
I kind of hope that it's leaked, b/c if that is there first main single I won't be expecting much from the album. Althoug with some bands it seems that the first single is always my most hated song from the album.

I'm pretty sure this is the first single. If so, I'm satisfied - I'm usually not a fan of singles but I do like this song.

It is the first single. I think it's a little under produced intentionally. I like the sound of the song too. He certainly didn't go out of his way to make a radio friendly hit. Good for him.

Awesome song.
Lots of old pumpkins sound in there.
Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.

Not bad.
A little heavier than what I was expecting, but that's not a bad thing.
Definitely interested to hear the rest of the album.

From what I've seen/heard... Corgan's voice is one of those that people either love or hate. I'm one of them that just can't stand his voice. It sucks because I think he's a very, very taleneted songwriter and musically the Pumpkins were (and are still judging by this track) a tight band...... but I can't bring myself to stomach his voice.
To each their own I guess though...

I've always liked the Pumpkins, but this song is meh. Not bad, but not great either. I'll have to listen to the album.

I think Billy Corgan should have just stayed under whatever rock he was living under for the last few years.

Are they planning on touring? I guess it depends on CD sales?
