Interview with Billy Corgan

Smashing Pumpkins' (SP) undisputed leader Billy Corgan has an interview over at Onion A.V. Club.

He also mentioned in the interview that his relationships with D'Arcy Wretsky (SP Bassist) and James Iha (SP Lead Guitar) are "pretty poor" and that they might not join the reunion tour. He also discusses his reasons for not playing their old songs.

He also mentions his short-lived band, Zwan and some of the reasons why he quit (effectively disbanding the group).

I listen to Zwan music and I like a lot of their songs from their one and only album, Mary Star of the Sea. There's Lyric, Settle Down, Declarations of Faith, Honestly. But then as some of the band members say "that sounds like the Pumpkins."

"No shit."
