The Smashing Pumpkins are an American alternative rock band known for their distinctive blend of dreamy melodies, heavy guitar riffs, and introspective lyrics. Formed in Chicago in 1988, the band rose to international fame in the 1990s with their breakthrough albums Siamese Dream (1993) and the double LP Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness (1995), the latter of which debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and was certified diamond by the RIAA.
The band's signature sound—helmed by frontman Billy Corgan—was further shaped by guitarist James Iha and drummer Jimmy Chamberlin, both of whom remain in the current lineup.
