Fan since ’92 at 10 y/o. I distinctly remember first hearing BWBW on the day of its release and saying “woah…is this Smashing Pumpkins?!” and instantly becoming more excited than I’d ever been waiting for release day. Told everyone I knew to go buy it, and waited eagerly for the day. My dad drove me to Best Buy to get it, and I remember the feeling of getting home, opening it up and being so blown away by the layers, textures, dynamics, lyrics, artwork…everything. A true masterpiece that was the soundtrack to my life then & now. Long, dark nights of depression that this record helped me through but now stands as a testament to life, love, and endless possibilities. Eternally grateful for this album.
