I used to love the Smashing Pumpkins, i also liked Zwan and his solo effort. But since Zetigeist I think Billy lost it...
Though I was really excited when I first listened to the samples, and was somewhat amazed when I first listened to Oceania, in the end, is just an average forgetable album.
It is way better than Zeitgeist and every other inferior song on TGBK, but it isn't something to be called "The Smashing Pumpkins". He should just forget about rock and roll and continue with his synth pop thing, like in The Future Embrace. It wasn't amazing, but at least it seemed to be honest...
