Few nineties records sound as positively massive as Smashing Pumpkins’ sophomore smash. That’s in part due to the reported hundreds of Big Muffed-out guitar overdubs melancholy mastermind Bily Corgan grafted onto each track. Even without that studio over-excess, psych-grunge earworms like “Cherub Rock,” “Rocket” and “Geek U.S.A.” elevated the Pumpkins into becoming full-blown rock deities among the rest of the slackers in the Alternative Nation.
