Smashing Pumpkins Re-Release 'Zeitgeist'
It's only been three months since the Smashing Pumpkins returned with their new album, 'Zeitgeist.' Despite that, and despite having released it in five different versions initially, Billy Corgan and Co. are re-releasing the effort.The pimped package, available today exclusively in Best Buy stores, includes a full-length DVD, titled 'Inside the Zeitgeist,' as well as three bonus tracks: 'Stellar,' 'Death From Above' and the previously unreleased 'Ma Belle.'
The unreleased track 'Super Christ,' meanwhile, will not be making its proper debut. The Pumpkins performed the tune at their recent AOL Sessions, which, according to Corgan, may be the only recorded version of that song that ever sees the light of day.
"'Super Christ,' is a song that was sort of germinated during 'Zeitgeist' and now we're playing it live every night," Corgan told Spinner. "Everybody seems to love the song so that would be, 'OK, that's definitely going to be on the next album.' But it may never come out. The AOL Session may end up being the only version that's ever recorded properly."

seriously, Seriously, SERIOULSY NO ONE CARES ABOUT SMASHING PUMPKINS AND HAVEN'T SINCE 1996. They keep coming back like unwanted neighborhood animals. YOUR 30 MINUTES ARE OVER. Be happy you got 30 minutes. Everyone else gets only 15. You can tell that nobody cares by the number of postings on this site. I was just bored.

Actually, there are plenty of people who still love the Pumpkins. It may not be 1996 anymore, but Billy still rocks like he did back then. I saw them in 96 and again 3 weeks ago. And how do you figure they keep coming back. The broke up 7 years ago and this is the first time they've regrouped. Billy did some other projects, but not the Pumpkins as a group. Its really a shame you don't know what you're talking about.

He looked strange in the pic. I am not very interested in his album. This guy has posted his personal ad to a celebrities dating site for several months. That site called http://searchingmillionaire.com . I just visited his profile page yesterday seems he is a certified millionaire there.
