Smashing Pumpkins single to debut as GH: World Tour DLC
Those hoping to find lead singer Billy Corgan on the game's disc won't be disappointed either as, well, he's actually on there. Corgan will appear as an in-game and undoubtedly creepy character, singing and gyrating (probably) through the band's "Today," or whatever other career song you choose to fling at him. Be gentle.

any chance this is a song that was recorded 15 years ago? otherwise, no thanks!
DCBlack @ Sep 2nd 2008 8:10PM
That pack is still good enough for me. I'll buy.

You are all crazy! Anyone who loved 90's Pumpkins needs to pick up Zeitgeist. It will not disappoint.
Cheers.

Man, they used to be good...
now... notsomuch

Agreed. By far my favorite band all throughout high school. Yep, I feel old now.

Guitar Hero has been doing a thing recently by announcing great bands that aren't so-great anymore for DLC in World Tour.
Metallica, REM, now Smashing Pumpkins...
REM is better now than the rest, but at least we get some classic Smashing Pumpkins as well.
...I just wish and hope 1979 comes to Rock Band DLC because even though I'm getting the WT core game, I don't want to have to keep switching =(

Siamese Dream is the best album ever made. END

A moment of silence for the late Rock & Roll.

They were never good.

Sad that it looks like Bullet with Butterfly Wings news was a fraud :(
Oh well. This is still pretty much the best news ever. Here's hoping for lots of Pumpkins DLC down the pipeline.

Who is that creepy looking guy in the middle? The one with the weird long hair?
kavendano14 @ Sep 2nd 2008 6:08PM
He has no hair now, now you guess.
mezzanine @ Sep 2nd 2008 6:16PM
Billy Corgan, of course. And I always thought he looked better with long hair.

It's a joke guys...
War Machine @ Sep 2nd 2008 5:40PM
My god, Billy Corgan's ugly!
DCBlack @ Sep 2nd 2008 8:13PM
They're all ugly.
Jevanzz @ Sep 2nd 2008 5:53PM
The Pumpkins rock! WOO!
dark_inchworm @ Sep 2nd 2008 6:01PM
It's been a long time since they rock and rolled.
Spoiler:
OOH YEAH OOOOH YEAH
abbazabba @ Sep 2nd 2008 9:51PM
Rock & Roll is a Led Zeppelin tune there, broseph.
dark_inchworm @ Sep 3rd 2008 2:34PM
I'm aware of this. It was simply a generic rock and roll reference.
Someone would have to be far, FAR out there to confuse those two bands, methinks.
Kyattsuai @ Sep 2nd 2008 6:07PM
Any news on whether or not the songs in said packs are going to be available separately? I still don't know if I'm getting GH4 yet, but I would definitely like to play 1979.
Farseer (GDI) @ Sep 2nd 2008 11:34PM
Well, judging by all previous GH DLC, I'm gonna have to go with no. You want one, you buy them all.
Flit @ Sep 2nd 2008 6:08PM
Yay! Throw the half hearted schlock rock that has spewed forth from billy corgan since the days of "Machina" to the hell that is Guitar Hero DLC! Bwahahahah!
KeenCommander @ Sep 2nd 2008 6:28PM
Eww...Billy Corgan...*pulls out knife*
Get away, evil monster, AWAY!
Feanor @ Sep 2nd 2008 6:59PM
Hmm, songs like Sunkissed and Tarantula don't sound like schlock rock to me... I'm going to go ahead and say that you're full of shit.
Mixaboy @ Sep 2nd 2008 7:30PM
Guitar Hero could get Stairway to Heaven and the Rock Band kiddies would find some way to spin it negative. Hell, they did with Ozzy and Jimi.
VaultICEE @ Sep 2nd 2008 9:18PM
I don't hate on Guitar Hero for the songs they put in...
But its basically everything else. =/
I was disappointed at the graphics, the chart layouts... it doesn't even look better than RB1 in my eyes.
I'm only buying the core game to see if the music maker isn't as bad as it looks and the awesome exclusives they nabbed.
Banstyle @ Sep 2nd 2008 10:50PM
I miss D'Arcy. :(
Farseer (GDI) @ Sep 2nd 2008 11:36PM
Hmmmm... if this new single is like any track from Zeitgeist, then I guess I'll hold out for the entire Siamese Dream album to drop on RB. ;)
j.lee @ Sep 3rd 2008 12:55AM
Which button do you press to get the original lineup back together?
doubleofive @ Sep 3rd 2008 11:26AM
I don't get the attraction to adding the lead singers to GHWT. I mean, the point (at least of RB) is for YOU to be the band. Having your likeness being Corgan or Ozzy kind of defeats that purpose. I understand that they will let you create your own character and its all detailed and stuff, but whey even license the likeness of the real artists unless you're just going to sit back and watch?
