The Smashing Pumpkins

In June 2019, when The Smashing Pumpkins rocked the stage at Forum Karlín in Prague, they were riding high on the waves of their album "Shiny and Oh So Bright, Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun." This album, released in late 2018, marked a significant moment in the band's history as it was their first since their reunion in 2018 with key founding members Billy Corgan, James Iha, and Jimmy Chamberlin. The live recording in Prague showcases not just their classic sound, but also a renewed energy that resonated with fans. A fun tidbit? This concert came right amid their "Shiny and Oh So Bright" tour, where they aimed to reconnect with their roots while simultaneously exploring new musical textures. It's not just a concert; it’s a celebration of a legacy that’s evolved through the years, blending nostalgia with fresh vibrancy. Isn’t it fascinating how music can transport us back in time while still feeling totally current?
