I really like the cover of Smashing Pumpkins' 9th studioalbum! The music is progressive hardrock/rock/pop with Billy Corgan's unique nasal vocals making much of the melody in the songs. Good first 4 songs but then it looses tempo and after 9 songs I have fallen asleep. There are no bad songs though, it's just too soft to keep my interest up. It's very spacy and big sounding and I really like the incredibly intense drumwork on the whole album.

1)Quasar (7,0) Progressive and chaotic song with wild weird drumming. Cool.

2)Panopticon (7,0) Sames as above but more melodic.

3)The celestials (8,0) First melodic acoustic and then a very good hardrock song.

4)Violete rays (7,0) Nice melodic piece.

5)My love is winter (7,0) Same as above.

6)One diamond, one heart (5,5) Synth-beat with spacy guitars.

7)Pinwheels (5,0) First a long pling-plong-play with synhesizers and then acoustic progressive pop.

8)Oceania (6,0) 9 minutes of halfboring but halfcharming progressive popmusic.

9)Pale horse (5,5)

10)The chimera (7,5)

11)Glissandra (6,5)

12)Inkless (6,5)

13)Wildflower (4,0)

Score: 6,35
