And I say this about the man I consider to be the greatest songwriter since John Lennon.
The best way to describe the album would be Machina B-sides. The whole thing is a mess. And with the exception of a couple songs almost every track sounds the same. Like was posted in the pumpkins reforming thread, supposedly Chamberlain plays on a few of the tracks, but I sure as hell couldn't tell with all that Elektronika racket Billy was bandying about. My ears started bleeding on track #4 when I realized just how bad it was.
I'm not completely giving up yet, but I need to let this one sit on the shelf for a couple of months before I even look at it again.

Everything you said here is dead on. The SPs have always been one of my favorites, and I even liked Zwan (except for Paz's terrible background vocals), but Corgan's solo album is boring, boring crap IMO. After listening to it, I began hoping the SPs never reform.
