The Smashing Pumpkins

In the live recording of "Disarm" by The Smashing Pumpkins at Gröna Lund on May 31, 2019, the band was riding a wave of renewed creativity, having released their album *Shiny and Oh So Bright, Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun.* just months earlier, in November 2018. This marked a significant moment in their career, as it was their first album to feature original members Billy Corgan, James Iha, and Jimmy Chamberlin together since *MACHINA/The Machines of God* back in 2000. This reunion not only stirred nostalgia among long-time fans but also showcased a fresh sonic perspective, blending their classic sound with new iterations. Filmed in the vibrant setting of Gröna Lund, a historic amusement park, this performance captures the emotional depth and powerful energy of a band unified in purpose, reminding everyone why they’ve remained a vital force in the alternative rock scene for decades. It’s a lovely confluence of past and present, resonating deeply with their audience.
