The following message has mysteriously appeared on the Smashing Pumpkins website:

"The Smashing Pumpkins are currently in the recording studio with legendary producer Roy Thomas Baker (Queen, The Cars, The Darkness), at work on their first new album since 1999."

Awesome! If there's anything I want out of a new Smashing Pumpkins album, it's glittery pomp and new wave sparkle.

Still no word on who's in the band other than Billy Corgan, or when the album's coming out. However, I'm guessing that it's going to come out on Warner Bros. or Reprise, since the mailing list on the Pumpkins site is run by Warner/Reprise.

hmmmmm....im surprised this didn't get any hits. did i miss something?

im very excited. billy said it'd be different so its interesting that theyre using a queen producer. bc is a fan of the cars though so i can see why he'd want him.

isnt jimmy confirmed for the line-up?

im saving $400 dollars a week so i can quit my job and go to the first show *cringes*

ah, i can't wait for the new album. i wish they'd say who was in the band though, i'm so curious.

thanks for the update though.

there's another post about it.
