*shudder* I really hate zwan. I was a huge fan of siamese dream and mellon collie (like everyone who likes the pumpkins) but after that there wasn't enough in their albums to keep me interested in the whole thing.

Zwan was really average. The whole thing I loved about the pumpkins was that earlier on they were able to somehow mix a whole ton of different influences and yet keep a kind of uniform alt-rock sound without letting one sound really overpower the others.

Any time zwan seemed to try something creative and different it seemed as if it was just for the sake of throwing in something unique, without anything that tied it in to the rest of the sound.

but hey, thats just me.
