The Smashing Pumpkins

At the time of the live recording of "Zero" at Lollapalooza Argentina on March 21, 2015, The Smashing Pumpkins were in an interesting phase of their career. They had just released their album "Monuments to an Elegy" in December 2014, which marked a significant return to form for the band after a series of lineup changes and the more experimental directions seen in previous works. The album featured a more streamlined, rock-oriented sound and was the last to include guitarist Jeff Schroeder. It’s quite a treat to think about how "Zero," a classic cut from *Siamese Dream* (1993), resonated with the crowd in such a high-energy setting, especially as Billy Corgan prepared to wrap up with one last song—talk about a powerful farewell! The moment captured there really showcases their enduring connection with fans, proving that even years later, their live performances can ignite intense emotions.
