That album turn 25 years old tomorrow, October 24th.
I was 16yo and Smashing was one of the most important thing in my life back then.
In other news, they announced they will release a 33-Song Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness and MACHINA Sequel and they plans to tour in honor of double album's 25th anniversary in 2021. https://www.spin.com/2020/10/sma…
- Mellon Collie is a timeless masterpiece. As is Gish and Siamese Dream. What a trifecta.CyBrainX
- i agree. And i would put the The Aeroplane Flies High boxed set in there tooBennn
- Yeah. I bought that when it came out. It was packaged in a vintage record carrying case that looked like a lunchbox. https://www.ebay.com…CyBrainX
- All was great albums! Was a super fan when I was 16 tooeryx
- CybrainX, I still have mine :)Bennn
- it was in limited number when it came out. I wanted it so bad, i asked my mum non stop to get it!Bennn
- I bought it on CD the day it came out. Also saw them on this tour. It was good but nothing was ever Siamese Dream againnb
- Seen them at lollap or bfd or sum near SF, they walked out mid show, the called us the audience dirty pollutersmoldero
- I worked on the Canadian release of this. It went gold at just one record store in my city. I still have the album art on a syquest, lolGnash
- 1995 walking through washington square park at around 3am from a late shift. starla playing in my walkman. they were the soundrack of my life back then.sea_sea
- Those 3/4 first tapes were everything, especially Gish and Siamese Dream. They lost me after Chamberlin was out.sea_sea
- wonderful recordcolin_s
- missing red renault 11isaca
- Remember seeing Siamese Dream all over the local music shop, then saw them on Snl. Got hooked during h.s. too <3pinkfloyd
- Pisces iscariot, starla oh my. The end of "blue", crush in gish. Love those songs.pinkfloyd
- "Here is no why" another great track.pinkfloyd
- Piano intro sucks on a massive scalei_was
- Wow, shit, this brings me back. Firing it up now!elahon
- It’s perfect Autumn music, when it’s grey and cold outside and the leaves have turned colour.shapesalad
- Ugh. I still have this album, but I cannot listen to Billy Corgan.dasohr
- can't dive into melancholic these days -:) but back in the days i loved it, also the album artwork is great. i put many cd's in the trash - this - stays with meapi
- It's odd how after Adore he completely lost the ability to write good songs anymore.CyBrainX
- What's the point of people shitting on this album? Just don't post if you don't like it. The internet is full of shitty people.pinkfloyd
- I like Adore and can tolerate Machina and Zwan.fooler
- I remember hurrying into the CD store thinking there would be a huge line or it would be sold out on day one! hahaha a clerk laughed at me a bitnb
- This album legit saved my life oncescarabin
- Billy Corgan said music saved his lifepinkfloyd
- He didn't saved mine, his voice sucksi_was

Bill Evans got me hooked on jazz. This is my setup.
- wow Naim amplifier I think, nice setup !!!i_was
- NSK poster ftw!renderedred
- oh that's a lovely setsted
- are those rubber cubes what u r using as legs for speaker? idk how that horn is mounted but it looks like that it gets lots of resonance from down bellow.sted
- @sted wooden cubes. No resonance, pretty transparent setup.fisheye
- @i_was this is naim dvd5 moded as cd drive. Specs are in the comments of the video.fisheye
- this is great. wow. really brings me into the musicjaylarson
- Whole room is bonus.PhanLo
- Yeah this is a great low budget set of kit.ben_
- @ben You are not the sharpest knife in the drawer, aren’t you?fisheye
- i hope this guy doesn't live in an apartment block with a sound installation like that...milfhunter
- Fisheye, enable “detect sarcasm”. It’s a beautiful setup, and a great choice of music to showcase it.ben_
- @milfhunter lol it isn't about the volume. the sound what leaves that room will be surprisingly nominal if you do things in the right way.sted
- like the only thing i would replace are the wooden legs what transfer sound to the floor and f up a bit the lower frequencies.sted
- and possibly the relationship with the one down bellow :)sted
- The volume is usually 60 - 70 db in the listening position. And yes, I live in apartment block. The system is very transparent. I measured the outcome and ...fisheye
- ... it is pretty close to the source. So if the recording is good, it sounds good an if it’s bad I don’t listen to it. ;) There is a thing when you dig into ...fisheye
- ... let’s say audiophile world, the music you listened to before is eventually being ignored just because of the recording quality. That sucks.fisheye
- curious if you find that statement depends on the context of the recording... punk music or early 90's rap for instance... is clarity the only measure for you?ben_
- @ben_ I don’t know about clarity, I was talking about transparency (neutralness of the system). I enjoy sound stages, holography, depth of the sound stage, ...fisheye
- .. the illusion of walking between musicians in my living room. But as I mentioned, it all depends on recording - mix and mastering.fisheye
- ... regarding the music you mentioned, I gravitate towards recorded music with mics, not generated music via softwares but a lot of sludge, stoner, doom ...fisheye
- ... you can see on my Instagram @dejanmiletic my previous gearfisheye
- Cool, yeah it was an honest question... you mentioned how recording quality leads to not listening to certain music anymore.ben_
- But for me, anyhow some of the magic of music that gets opened up with a good system is the background you don't get to hear otherwise!ben_
- I don’t know about opening up, but any interference or coloration of the source is usualy unexceptae by audiophiles..fisheye

- watching his streams where he cant get in the groove, and his confidence wanes and he has to stop taking requests for topics, and gradually over 20 minutes hekingsteven
- jams out a few ideas like no one is watching... and all of a sudden the spark reignites and he switches up the ballad he's been developing in to a trap housekingsteven
- track and your so focused on reading his emotional state through body language. as he lets rip with some filthy lyric from the darkest depths of his subconscioukingsteven
- ...s. he may not be the best musician in the world but everything that is so endearing about improvised music, how he exposes himself through the streams.kingsteven
- and then like a talk show host, takes a caller and starts again. offt, hopefully when shows start again some folks can take influence what this man does.kingsteven
- he is an awesome entertainer.sted
- I had a few weekends of just playing vr with Marcs streams blasting in the backgroudmoldero

This UK band black midi are blowing my mind. Just-out-of-high-school guys making some ridiculously creative music.
- wow! really good!renderedred
- Full KEXP performance
https://www.youtube.…mg33 - Huh! How weird for me to see this now - I think they played last night at the studios here. I wondered why it was so busy!Nairn
- This sounds really cliche... but hearing that song was as close to a "first time I heard Smells Like Teen Spirit" moment in a LONG time.mg33
- Just been to check the roster and last night was a "Secret Gig". I saw 'Black Midi' written on a notice earlier and thought it a cool band name. Damnit!Nairn

MOTHERFUCKER. DID I MISS HISTORY IN THE MAKING?!Nairn - I like how the guitarist is playing that audio sample by holding the iPhone up to the pickups.mg33

- tbh. already too fiddly - next record will be painfully niche choreographed clown music a la dirty projectors or wild beastskingsteven
- Remids me of Düreforsögjagara
- Lots of cool ideas and creativity there. I'd like to see some of that style incorporated into more of a jam. That would keep me listening.nocomply
