1990's alt-rock outfit The Smashing Pumpkins have announced dates for a new UK tour.
Bringing the latest incarnation of his ever-changing band, Billy Corgan and co will return to the UK in July for three live dates supporting seventh studio album 'Oceania'.
Released on June 18th last year, 'Oceania' features 13 new tracks and was released via EMI, in conjunction with frontman Billy Corgan’s Martha’s Music label. It’s the band’s second album since their reformation in 2005 and their first since they began their 44-track project ‘Teargarden by Kaleidyscope’, which sees them giving away 11 four-track EPs for absolutely free – they’re currently two and a half EPs in.
Speaking about their latest material, guitarist Jeff Schroeder said: “In this day and age, with what’s going on politically and socially, it just feels right to play something that’s a little more spacey and dreamy. We want music to move people on an emotional level.”
