G.L.O.W.

"G.L.O.W." is a single by The Smashing Pumpkins that premiered on Chicago alternative rock station Q101 on September 29, 2008."Studio version of G.L.O.W. to premiere today on Q101". SmashingPumpkins.com May 28, 2008. This song was the last recorded Smashing Pumpkins song to feature drummer Jimmy Chamberlin, who left the band in March 2009, and before he rejoined in 2018. The Mellon Collie-era demo song "Zoom" has a similar riff to "G.L.O.W." may have originated from it.
As for the title, Billy Corgan has said he simply wanted to call the song "Glow" but stylized it with full stops as part of an inside joke, possibly in reference to the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling.
Corgan has reflected back as "G.L.O.W." being an example of where the band was headed had Chamberlin not left.
==Background==
Sometime in early 2008, Guitar Hero approached The Smashing Pumpkins about including a new original song in their upcoming game, Guitar Hero World Tour. Corgan agreed and wrote and recorded "G.L.O.W." for the occasion. He later recalled that his bad posture is accurately captured in the video game, as he himself acted for the animated figure. Guitar Hero producers had promised him they would not use the footage of him wearing "the stupid suit with the little white balls", yet they did anyway. Possibly in retaliation, the band refrained from playing any major hits at the Guitar Hero World Tour release party on October 25, 2008.
In July 2008 it was announced on the band's official website that the recording of this song was complete. Bjorn Thorsrud was confirmed as a co-producer of the track, stating: "'G.L.O.W.' has me glowing all over"."New song, G.L.O.W., recording finished 2008 ". SmashingPumpkins.com July 23, 2008. Later that month the band's website reported that the track had entered the mixing stage, with mixing by Chris Lord-Alge, and that it was still slated for a September release."Chris Lord-Alge helps Billy Corgan to mix “G.L.O.W.”". HipstersUnited.com July 30, 2008. The article also featured a photo of Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin among others at Ardent Studios in Memphis, Tennessee where "G.L.O.W." was recorded.
In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Billy Corgan stated that, with American Gothic and "G.L.O.W.", the band "finally turned the corner... where it’s starting to feel like our music again, and not theirs, whoever 'they' might be," referring to the band's choice to continue making music without a record label."Billy Corgan discusses Pumpkins song in 'Watchmen' trailer" 
"G.L.O.W." was released as iTunes first "digital 45" on November 4, 2008. It was also released as a downloadable track for Guitar Hero World Tour on November 15, 2008, along with "1979" and "The Everlasting Gaze". The band worked on a music video with Justin Coloma for the song, which premiered on MySpace on December 2, 2008.
The cover art was created by artist Kateri Forbes.

Get Ready

Get Ready is an album by English rock band New Order. The song "Turn My Way" features contributing vocals from Billy Corgan. The album was released on August 27, 2001. Earlier that year, Corgan performed as a touring guitarist at select New Order shows. It was the first appearance of Corgan following The Smashing Pumpkins' 2000 breakup.
Corgan's involvement materialized from his long-standing friendship with Peter Hook. "I first met him when he was 15 and thinking of forming a band," said Hook. "He was a big fan of Joy Division and New Order, and he came to dinner with us one day as a friend of the promoter." Corgan's influence is evident on "Turn My Way", which begins with Pumpkin-esque noise and Corgan's voice, taking the song into American rock territory.
== Reception ==
Get Ready received generally positive reviews from music critics. David Browne of Entertainment Weekly opined that New Order have "never sounded stronger or more vigorous", calling Get Ready "a stunning and confident return to form". Robert Christgau of The Village Voice deemed it the band's best album "in 15 years", while AllMusic critic John Bush described the record as "their first work in 15 years that's focused on songwriting and performance rather than grafted dance techniques." Q listed Get Ready as one of the best 50 albums of 2001.

Ghost Children/Friends and Enemies

Ghost Children/Friends and Enemies (or Ghost Children II) is a 2006 tribute album, featuring a variety of artists from different musical backgrounds and from all across the globe covering songs by the The Smashing Pumpkins.
This release is a follow-up to the 2001 tribute album, Ghost Children: A Tribute To The Smashing Pumpkins, which was conceived, produced and sold by Neil Main in aid of the Act IV charity, the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Northern Illinois. The name of the compilation is a homage to The Smashing Pumpkins' internet only release, Machina II/The Friends & Enemies of Modern Music.
A tribute album with a limited edition of 200 copies and was - unlike Ghost Children: A Tribute To The Smashing Pumpkins - produced by Act IV, a group of Smashing Pumpkins fans responsible for the Act IV: A Tribute To The Smashing Pumpkins charity concerts at Metro Chicago. Like the previous Ghost Children CD, each CD is hand-numbered. It was released on November 17, 2006 through the Act IV website. All profits from Ghost Children II are donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois (formerly known as the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Northern Illinois). This tradition comes from The Smashing Pumpkin's July 7, 1998 charity tour stop in their hometown of Chicago, where they donated all the profits to Make-A-Wish. This compilation is sponsored by the SPIFC.
For this compilation, organizers drew upon covers from three years of Act IV demos. This included demos for the two Act IV benefit concerts in 2001 and 2002, as well as the cancelled Act IV 2003 concert. Additionally, the organizers received a new batch of entries from everywhere from Brazil to Switzerland. In all, nearly 70 artists were considered for inclusion on the charity compilation. Ultimately, 13 tracks were chosen for the CD by a selection committee involving Act IV organizers and other Smashing Pumpkins fans, such as Neil Main (the producer of the original Ghost Children), and Karl Daher of The Smashing Pumpkins Internet Fan Club.

Ghost Children: A Tribute To The Smashing Pumpkins

Ghost Children: A Tribute To The Smashing Pumpkins is a 2001 tribute album featuring fourteen international bands and artists covering songs by The Smashing Pumpkins.
Originally conceived as an idea for a website, Ghost Children evolved in to a full-length CD following collaboration between producer Neil Main and Act IV's creator Steven Pukin in late 2000. It was due to this collaboration that Ghost Children was made possible. Tracks submitted by artists and bands looking to play at Act IV's 2001 show were automatically submitted for the project. Almost 100 tracks were received by this method, with 20-30 demos coming via the website. Pukin also endorsed the disc to be sold at the show.
There was an initial limited run of 200 pressings, all selling within two hours during the first Act IV show on the July 7, 2001 at The Metro in Chicago. Metro owner Joe Shanahan booked the show for July 7 to celebrate the anniversary of Smashing Pumpkins Day in Chicago. The show raised more than $10,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and the city of Chicago again declared July 7 as Smashing Pumpkins Day in honor of the show.
A copy of Ghost Children was given to Billy Corgan – who was present at that show – who then electively stated his satisfaction with the effort on The Smashing Pumpkins official message board. Due to the accumulating high demand, a second run of 200 CDs were produced in late 2001.
Articles on the release appeared in the Chicago Tribune and on MTV News while Neil Main promoted the CD via Northampton Scene magazine and on FOX FM. Production of a second edition run of 200 copies commenced in late 2001, giving fans unable to attend the concert the chance to purchase the album by mail.
All profits were donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Northern Illinois.

"Glass' Theme" (or simply "Glass") is a song from The Smashing Pumpkins' sixth studio album, Machina II/The Friends & Enemies of Modern Music.
The recording consists of the Jimmy Chamberlin's drums as recorded by Flood, and later a total of four rhythm guitars (with overdubs) and seven tracks of bass were added by Billy Corgan, recorded by Howard Willing.Billy Corgan. November 24, 2020 Instagram Q&A. Note Corgan said the guitars/bass were added in autumn 2000, but the band was in the middle of touring at that time so he likely meant 1999.

Glass and The Machines of God (Matt Walker Remixes)

Glass and The Machines of God (Matt Walker Remixes) is a non-commercial bootleg of former Smashing Pumpkins drummer Matt Walker's remixes of songs intended for the Glass and The Machines of God animated web series.

Glass and the Ghost Children

"Glass and the Ghost Children" is a song from The Smashing Pumpkins' fifth studio album, Machina/The Machines of God. This middle section of the album features various clips from "Le Deux Machina" with piano by Mike Garson.
Machina served as a concept album in which "the band had become such cartoon characters at that point in the way we were portrayed in the media, the idea was that we would sort of go out and pretend we were the cartoon characters." From there, a story was conceived revolving around a rock star named Zero (based on the public persona of Billy Corgan) hearing the voice of God, renaming himself Glass, and renaming his band The Machines of God. Fans of the band were referred to as the "Ghost Children".
== Background ==
In the Thirty-Three podcast, Corgan for the first time touched on the meaning of the song and the larger Glass and The Machines of God story. He explained that "Glass and the Ghost Children" tells the story of Glass' female love interest, who was drugged up and crashed her car and nearly died, similar to the music video and story that was created for "Try, Try, Try." The song describes when Glass went to visit her in the hospital, as she's hallucinating from the drugs. The end section of the song is meant to directly portray her hallucinations.
The final product of the song, in particular the first section, was recorded live off the performance floor with Corgan on bass and the usual James Iha on guitar and Jimmy Chamberlin on drums. Vocals were added later.Billy Corgan. #MachinaMixes updates on Instagram. November 26, 2020
== Equipment ==
A Gretsch Silver Jet with a Bigsby tremolo was used as Corgan's electric guitar in the studio recording, while James Iha likely used his Gibson SG.Christopher Scapelliti, "Machina Shop: The Tools of Billy Corgan and James Iha's Trade", Guitar World, April 2000.

Glissandra

"Glissandra" is a song by The Smashing Pumpkins off of their 2012 studio album, Oceania. The title appears to be a play on words, given the main riff involves notes "gliding" into each another, known as glissando in music theory.
An old Roland guitar synth pedal was used in the recording, as well as a Boss pedal that acted like a whammy bar. "It's one of my favorite sounds on the record", Corgan told MusicRadar.

Glynis

"Glynis" is a song by The Smashing Pumpkins that was first released on the No Alternative compilation album, and later on Rarities and B-Sides and on the 2012 deluxe reissue of Pisces Iscariot. The 2012 mix is almost identical to previous versions except with different vocal takes with Billy Corgan laughing at his crackling voice.
An old Speak & Spell toy "hello" starts the song, and the soupy solo in the middle is the result of double-tracked guitars fed through a vintage Electro-Harmonix Bassballs pedal. The song is a dedication to former Red Red Meat bassist Glynis Johnson, who passed away from AIDS-related complications in 1992.Richard Thomas, "Signal To Noise: The Sonic Diary Of The Smashing Pumpkins", Electronic Musician, October 1st, 2008

Good Soldier

Good Soldier is the fourth studio album by Sierra Swan. It was produced by Billy Corgan and independently released on Bandcamp on February 25, 2014. A compact disc and 50 signed copies of the LP were also independently released, under a label she called Lemons and Salt Music.
The album was recorded in Billy Corgan's private studio, most likely Pumpkinland II. The album took all of two weeks to record. Long-term Smashing Pumpkins collaborator Bjorn Thorsrud engineered and mixed the album, with mastering by Howie Weinberg.
== Background ==
Corgan had not produced for another artist for over 10 years. "Generally speaking, I don't like producing. I feel like artists deserve their own version of record production, and my version is pretty particular," he told MusicRadar. He made an exception for Swan, saying "There were a lot of reasons for me deciding to work with Sierra, but one of the biggest is her sheer talent. Quite simply, she has one of the greatest voices I've ever heard."
== Reception ==
MusicRadar called Good Soldier a "a rarity in current-day rock, a triumph of highly personal songwriting and minimalist sonic architecture that manages to connect with listeners without telegraphing emotions or overstating musical cues." The blog Audioeclectica wrote that "Sierra's voice is whimsical and takes you on quite a journey through her songs. She has one of the most pure voices in all of rock music."https://audioeclectica.wordpress.com/2015/03/27/band-of-the-week-sierra-swan/

Gossamer

"Gossamer" is a song by The Smashing Pumpkins that was an outtake of Zeitgeist. No studio recording has been made available, but it was performed regularly during the summer leg of the Zeitgeist tour, and a common feature of the band's live sets up to 2010. Its debut at the first Paris show in 2007 indicates that it was written during the Zeitgeist sessions, but this is not confirmed. The song duration typically ranges from 15 to 35 minutes. It was recorded live at the Fillmore and was released on the DVD If All Goes Wrong. The song returned to live rotation for the band, for the first time with James Iha notably, in 2024. This rendition of the song included a short part of Billy Corgan's solo song "The Spaniards" near the ending.
