Happy Birthday, #BillyCorgan! Twenty years ago this year, the #SmashingPumpkins released the epic 'Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.' "When we made 'Mellon Collie' we were like, 'We need to get on the radio. We need to get on MTV.' It didn't affect our thinking to the point we compromised. The production on 'Bullet With Butterfly Wings' is so dark I can't believe that was a big hit song. It felt like we shined it up. But we went for it, which is different. We went for it just like Mötley Crüe went for it in the Eighties. We didn't shy away from it. We didn't play games with it. I guess that's maybe more of what's changed. That sense of people going for it. Maybe once people see that, that they can't take things that are too avant-garde into the mainstream, maybe they just figure, 'Fuck it.' We were lucky that we could do really dark stuff and get away with it. I don't think you could turn in a 'Bullet With Butterfly Wings' to a record company today and they'd say, 'Great, let's put it on the radio.' They'd think it's too weird. They'd want you to shine it up or overproduce it. You can imagine what that song would sound like if it was recorded today. It would need a DJ breakdown." From RollingStone.com.
