Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins
Released 1993Alternative & Indie
Start herePicked by a lifelong record collector

Layered, cathartic alt-rock balancing crushing guitars with fragile melody. Ambitious and emotional. A defining 90s record. Released in 1993, it's an early landmark for The Smashing Pumpkins.

On vinyl: Vinyl can be scarcer than the CD from this era, so it's worth looking for a recent repressing.
