The Smashing Pumpkins Live Performance of Today at Lollapalooza Brazil 2015
When the Smashing Pumpkins performed “Today” at Lollapalooza Brazil in March 2015, they were riding the wave of a resurgence in their career, having just released *Monuments to an Elegy* in December 2014, which marked their first album of new material in over four years. This album was significant as it was produced by the legendary Rick Rubin and featured the band's iconic blend of alternative rock, showcasing their evolution while still holding onto the signature sound fans adored. This live recording captured a moment where Billy Corgan and the band exhibited a renewed energy on stage, engaging with the audience during a festival that celebrated their legacy. Interestingly, this performance also signified their enduring relevance in the rock scene, proving that despite the ever-changing music landscape, the pumpkin's influence and passion remained intact. How cool is it to see a band that shaped so much of the '90s still rocking hard?
