The Smashing Pumpkins

The Smashing Pumpkins were riding a wave of resurgence during their live performance in Moscow on June 8, 2013. This concert took place shortly after the release of their album "Oceania," which came out in 2012. "Oceania" was part of an ambitious project called "Teargarden by Kaleidyscope," highlighting their experimental approach but also marking a return to form that fans had long awaited. Interestingly, during this era of their career, the band, led by the ever-charismatic Billy Corgan, was reestablishing their presence in the rock world after a tumultuous breakup and regrouping earlier in the decade. The 2013 Moscow show captures that passionate drive, blending nostalgia with the excitement of new material. If you listen closely to "Tonight, Tonight" and its reprise in this performance, you'll feel that compelling mix of triumph and reflection, a hallmark of the band's enduring appeal.
