Look Billy Corgan is an amazing lyricist and guitarist. His vocal and musical melodies are astounding. Zwan fucking rocks and doesn't sound dick like Smashing Pumpkins. Hell, "Baby Let's Rock" might as well be a Cheap Trick cover. Ok so maybe some of the lyrics and song titles (i.e. "Baby Let's Rock") for Zwan aren't the best Billy's ever come up with. But think about the way the music really sounds. It's like 70's rock. All the rainbow's and stuff look like they came right out of "Yellow Submarine" It all fits great. Zwan sounds like a tribute to all the bands these guys grew up listening to. I understand totally how Billy's voice can get annoying. I've owned(several stolen) a total of about 87 Smashing Pumpkins cd's and I went through a time where I couldn't bare his voice. Then I realized you can detect so much sincerity in each and every whine or scream. If you see him live you'll realize he has an amazing range. I've heard him do the death metal growl. If anybody really payed attention to all the guitar parts on every album he's ever done listened to all the words I think his voice begins to sound alot different. He certainly writes better lyrics than Maynard(and I love Tool too) but come on...the lyrics to "Hooker w/ a Penis"...he coulda done better. He has done better. Also I think some Tool fans should really listen to "Hooker..." they might find that they are the stupid boy (wearing Vans, 501's, Beastie-T, nipple rings, new tattoo). I like to call them posers. Not because of tattoos and nipples rings, it's cause they're trying too hard. You're not cool cause you spent 80 bucks on bondage pants and chains and spike gauntlets from HOT TOPIC. Sometimes you can just tell when someones fake. Like having a screen name like "maynardsdick". Maynard's short ass would probably kick yours if he met you. God knows I'd like too. Farewell and Goodight.
