  • Wiltwither Share Video For “Front Door Phobia” Featuring Johnny Booth’s Andrew Herman

    Wiltwither have premiered a new video for their new song “Front Door Phobia.” The track, which features Johnny Booth’s Andrew Herman, is from the band’s new album “Pure Light,” which will be released on October 31.

    Wiltwither said the following about the single:

    “‘Front Door Phobia‘ touches on the graphic nature of modern society. It unapologetically explores concepts of isolation, political unrest, and the ever-growing tally of daily war crimes in a visceral, adrenaline-pumping track. Relentless low end crushes against you as you’re assaulted by panicked vocals and screeching guitars reminding you that every moment spent amongst ‘the public’ may be your last.

    The track also features Andrew Herman of Johnny Booth; a truly special moment on the record for us. He and the rest of the Booth guys have helped shape us into who we are both as creatives and people, and it’s nothing short of a pleasure to have him join us on such an important song for our career.”

    Drummer Tyler Syphertt also commented on the album:

    “We took a lot of steps in order to define who we are musically. Much of my background is in hip-hop, R&B, and jazz, so those elements seep through the record. The influences were all over the place—from Kendrick Lamar to Jesus Molina. We got these slight undertones of retro mid-century futurism by researching classified projects like MK Ultra and other historical events. Instead of just being heavy, there’s a ton of ear candy. We took leaps into new territory.”

    Vocalist Nick Rendelman added:

    “This record discusses the good, the bad, and the ugly of life. It also shows humans coming together and sharing their experiences, thoughts, and perspectives with one another at a level they had never imagined. If you’re experiencing the record as a whole, I’d love for you to walk away caring about your neighbor a little bit more. For as heavy as it is, the message is to be kinder and more compassionate.”

  • The Smashing Pumpkins To Release “Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness” 30th Anniversary Deluxe Box Set In November

    The Smashing Pumpkins will be releasing a 30th anniversary deluxe box set edition of “Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness” on November 21. Pre-orders can be found HERE.

    The band shared more information on the set:

    “Celebrating 30 years of Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness with a Super Deluxe 6LP box set, featuring eighty minutes of unreleased audio from the 1996 Infinite Sadness Tour, pressed on 180g vinyl, new liner notes in a hardbound book, a custom tarot deck, seven frameable lithographs, and a cloth bag—all housed in a velvet slipcase. Also available: a 4CD Deluxe Set! Shipping begins November 21st. Madame ZuZu’s Teahouse is offering a boxset which includes a limited edition, numbered 12″ x 12″ lithograph print featuring the original Tonight, Tonight artwork, personally autographed by Billy Corgan”

    Billy Corgan also commented:

    “Unearthing these live recordings from the original lineup’s true, last large-scale tour was a labour of love, and for me certainly a bittersweet as once we blew apart in 1996, we were never quite the same: be it emotionally, or spiritually. Thankfully, I can say this as the band is now enjoying our greatest public success since that time, and one can hear in these tapes the raw power that such nascent faith afforded us, then, and the will and wisdom to persevere that followed.”
