So?

how shitty the new version of Heavy Metal Machine is
horrible merges of covers to said HMH live

HMM rocks my cock. I think it's miles better than the original.

I tried very hard not to notice that Ginger's a girl and that Jeff's asian

Jeff is an Asian?

I tried to block out this video that I have seen like 500 times...

Same shit, different era.

Guitar Hero is an entity of evil. It degrades the value of music.

There are gazillions of bands that are at the same level or higher level of greatness that donate their songs to the GH series. It didn't degrade the value for me when I discovered a song by a band that I'd heard about but hadn't heard before, The Butthole Surfers.

Plus, Guitar Hero is fun. My younger God-brother owns GH 2 and 3, and it's a ball to play.

He's been learning classical style guitar for about four years prior to owning the games, also. Dunno if that's relevant, but yeah, you can take or leave that statement.

I've just now come to terms with all the shit that Billy and co. have stacked since they got "back together."
I now admit to myself that it was a big dissapointment. It had some ok songs, and some great songs, but it just was not worth looking forward to for so long.
Billy has sold out big time.
Superchrist is trash

I think you pass the test for having an almost Netphorian-like, controversially critical opinion that is so out of place on this forum.

*applause*

This is the only step in the road I haven't supported Billy on.
I have been a very loyal fan, and I am not like a Netphorian.
I'm not swearing off the SP, I'm just really pissed off right now.

Well, good thing we're only dealing with music here. After all, it's someone else's band. Looks like Billy is still successful doing whatever he wants. I'm happy for him.

Cooooooooooooooool, I have to buy the shitty guitar-hero-whatever-crap-to have the legal ownership of GLOW!!!
Thank you once again, Billy...after letting us down all the time since the Pumpkins have allegedly been reformed...I hope for your scalp, that your trippy multirelease-album won't be an I-Tunes or wall-mart exclusive release.

Sorry, I'm really disappointed by this

aren't we all....

What's your source???? Nobody official has confirmed any of that yet.

well that's what I remember reading from somewhere, or I heard it on a fan interview on youtube..
I cant remember....it was a while ago
of course I 1/2 assed looked on sp.com, but didn't find much except the new single is ready to roll, September can't come soon enough, & it will be hitting the airwaves soon.
this is going to piss me off if I can't find the info....

was it an interview maybe?

i remeber hearing that before, but maybe i just heard it from you reggae i'm not sure though.

G.L.O.W. Release Information
Ξ August 6th, 2008 | → | ∇ Billy Corgan, Music News, Smashing Pumpkins |

Netphoria has been informed that the new Smashing Pumpkins single entitled G.L.O.W. will be physical release in Europe and the U.S. will get only a digital version. As far as we know the G.L.O.W. single will be released alone without any additional tracks.


I found this...but I know that is not where it came from when I first heard /read about...

I think someone just fucked up BAD because they used the words "G.L.O.W.", "exclusive" and "Guitar Hero" in the same sentence, sparking all this confusion.

i would say that is probably it. i know that what the post on netphoria said i have heard other places too, so that is what i was going with. i am just gonna pick up an import cd, no big deal. billy peviously said, they were having a hard time getting glow relased on cd in the us, so that is why it is not being done that way. everything can't be perfect all the time. so settle down.

I think it was SP.com

The title proves my point:

THE SMASHING PUMPKINS TO DEBUT NEW SINGLE "G.L.O.W." AS PART OF DOWNLOADABLE SONGPACK EXCLUSIVELY FOR GUITAR HERO

It's impossible to not misinterpret that.

yeah that definitely was not communicated properly...
but then again it was about GH mainly not the actual song being released.
I just want a date for the single release

I believe that Billy stated what you are talking about in the Mancow interview.
