For about a year, my ex-husband couldn't figure out how to install Photoshop on his computer. He'd always decide to do it while stoned out of his gourd and the code was written on the CD, so he'd eject the CD, enter the code, and then get an error message because HE DIDN'T PUT THE CD BACK IN THE CD-ROM DRIVE. He was absolutely amazed when I managed to successfully install the software and then embarrassed to learn why he wasn't as successful.

Tyler could be so much fun...

As a man of questionable taste, I bet I could still tolerate at least half of Siamese Dream. The Pumpkins are a joke, but I cannot resist Rocket.

Absolutely they're equivalent, yes, that is what I'm saying. FOB is much more equivalent to SP than Hole is to either. FOB is today's version of SP. Same deal. Mainstream major label alternative band du jour. Playing MTV events, musical guest of SNL or Conan or whatnot. Heavy rotation on the kiddie rock radio station.
The music isn't identical, at all. FOB's stage show is more lively for sure, and their singer is better than Corgan in pretty much every respect I can think of. The timbre of his voice is certainly less annoying. Musically, it's six of one half a dozen of the other for me, in that neither blows me away but I can recognize both bands as very good at what they do.

I haven't looked up record sales, but I'd assume they're roughly equivalent, and within about three years if FOB is sticking around as well as Green Day, they might have crushed SP by then.

The only way I see them as non-equivalent is that one was the music you liked when you were a stupid kid and you still have a special place for it in your heart, and the other was never for you in the first place cause you've aged out of the MTV target market.

And no, YOU'RE on crack!!! LOLZ3R!!!!

I will never for the life of me understand a male who likes the Smashing Pumpkins.
It's fucking girl music. Seriously. It's music for girls having a rough time with their period.
If you like them, do it in private. Don't make everyone else sick. It's fucked up and creepy.
You wanna put things in your butt when you get home from work? That's totally fine, just don't talk about it at the dinner table, you know?
Nobody wants to hear about it.
