THE SMASHING PUMPKINS have released two new songs from their new double album, “Cyr”, due on November 27 via Sumerian Records. The 20-song follow-up to 2018’s “Shiny And Oh So Bright, Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun.” was produced by singer-songwriter Billy Corgan. Check out “Confessions Of A Dopamine Addict” and “Wrath” below.
“‘Cyr’ is dystopic folly,” Corgan said in a statement, “one soul against the world sort of stuff, set against a backdrop of shifting loyalties and sped up time. To me it stands as both hopeful and dismissive of what is and isn’t possible with faith.”
THE SMASHING PUMPKINS have also announced “In Ashes”, a five-part animated series written by Corgan, featuring new songs from “Cyr”. Episodes one and two — “As The Crow Flies” and “Inspirations, Aspirations” — will arrive on September 25.

The Slow Show – Lust and Learn (2019)
FLAC (tracks) 24 bit/44,1 kHz | Time – 46:21 minutes | 473 MB | Genre: Indie Rock, Art Rock
Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © [PIAS] Recordings Holland
With 2015’s ‘White Water’ and the following year’s ‘Dream Darling’ The Slow Show established themselves as a band who inhabit their own universe. There are antecedents – the exploratory beauty of Talk Talk, the ability to frame a story like Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds, The Blue Nile’s determination not to waste a single note. It all coalesces into something other: unless you’ve heard The Slow Show before, you won’t have heard anything quite like The Slow Show. As the name implies, songs take their time in The Slow Show, though there’s a fresh sense of immediacy in lead single ‘Hard To Hide’. But this is music built to last. That’s not accidental: singer Rob Goodwin and keyboardist Frederick ‘t Kindt spent 18 months honing every note of ‘Lust And Learn’ into shape. Kindt helped establish leading Manchester studio Blueprint and knows the best local strings and brass players, who have helped The Slow Show since the start, while the Halle Youth Choir add the perfect counterpoint to Goodwin’s rich, sonorous voice.

Originally filmed in December 1968, “The Rock and Roll Circus” was originally intended to be released as a television special. The special was filmed over two nights and featured not only the Rolling Stones but The Who, Jethro Tull (with future Black Sabbath guitarist Tommy Iommi filling in for the recently departed Mick Abrahams), Marianne Faithful and an all-star jam featuring John Lennon, Eric Clapton, Keith Richards and Mitch Micthell. Sadly, this also marked the final appearance of the Stones founder and original guiding light, Brian Jones, who would be dead within six months after filming the special.
The Rolling Stones Rock And Roll Circus has received a 4K Dolby Vision restoration of the concert film on Blu-Ray.
Stunning 4K restoration performed in Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos Sound. First time on Blu-Ray – now with Dolby ATMOS.
The show also featured performances from The Who, Jethro Tull, Taj Mahal, Marianne Faithfull, Yoko Ono, as well as ‘supergroup’ The Dirty Mac – consisting of Eric Clapton, Keith Richards, Mitch Mitchell of The Jimi Hendrix Experience and John Lennon. Unheard tracks by the collective are available on this release for the first time ever.

The Sisters Of Mercy – Greatest Hits Volume One: A Slight Case Of Overbombing (2018 Remaster) (2018)

Studio Masters, Official Digital Download | Front Cover | © Parlophone UK
A Slight Case of Overbombing gathered together material from goth merchants the Sisters of Mercy’s three major-label releases. That fact immediately sets the stage for complaints from longtime fans desiring their indie music. However, for the listener more familiar with the band’s mid- to late-’80s college radio tracks, this is a very good collection. The lyrics are rather pointless and Andrew Eldritch’s vocals lack dynamics, but his singing has personality that overcomes his limitations. It’s the edgy, hard gothic rock of the music that is their strength. There’s an undeniable pull to songs like the galloping “This Corrosion” or the epic “More” (both produced by Jim Steinman). There’s also a mix of “Temple of Love,” featuring Ofra Haza, and an unreleased track, “Under the Gun.” Not essential, but a good record for the casual fan (although more extensive liner notes would have been nice).

Floodland is the second studio album by English rock band The Sisters of Mercy. It was released on 13 November 1987 by Merciful Release and Warner Music Group. The recording of the album began in January 1987, roughly two years after the band disbanded following the departures of band members Craig Adams and Wayne Hussey. It was produced by Larry Alexander, band frontman Andrew Eldritch, and Jim Steinman while being recorded at Power Station Studios in Manhattan, Strawberry Studios in Manchester, The Wool Hall in Bath, and AIR Studios in London.
The Sisters of Mercy broke up soon after the band finished the tour for its 1984 debut, First and Last and Always. Undaunted, the group’s founder and frontman Andrew Eldritch kept the name and continued to make music with his faithful drum machine Doktor Avalanche. The Sisters of Mercy came back stronger than ever in 1987 with second album, Floodland, a commercial and artistic breakthrough.
In the summer of 2015, Rhino released a vinyl box set that focused on the music surrounding the band’s first album. Continuing that trend, the next set will spotlight the group’s influential sophomore album, and will include a trio of 12″ singles from that era: “This Corrosion,” “Dominion” and “Lucretia My Reflection.”
The second incarnation of The Sisters – which featured bassist Patricia Morrison of Gun Club – explored new sonic avenues on Floodland. The tone was still dark and moody, but now the loud guitars shared space with keyboards and the rich orchestrations of producer Jim Steinman (Meat Loaf) on tracks like “This Corrosion” and “Dominion/Mother Russia.” When the album was released in November 1987, it climbed the charts in England where it reached the Top Ten.
Along with the studio album, the box set features further essential music released during that time including the 12″ version of the first single, “This Corrosion.” It features a different mix of the title track, along with the B-sides “Torch” and “Colours.”
