Earlier this year, Billy Corgan shared that the (mostly) reformed group were preparing to release two EPs this year. The original plans mentioned two four track EPs, so the eight track album may be both combined, however the “Vol. 1” in the title means we may be looking at another album very soon after.
The group recently reunited most of it’s original members for a massive tour which included a special anniversary show. The show featured guest appearances from a bunch of artists including Courtney Love who performed two classic Hole songs with the group.
Billy Corgan recently took to Instagram to blame promoters for a lack of Smashing Pumpkins shows in Australia. Fans remain hopeful that with the release of their first album since 2014’s Monuments To An Elegy, the band might make it over here for some shows.
Check out the tracklist for Shiny And Oh So Bright, Vol. 1 below, as well as the video for their recent single “Solara”.
