The Smashing Pumpkins return



Seven years since they broke up, the Smashing Pumpkins are back together, with a few line-up changes and a new record out next month. The video below shows Billy strumming through the song 33 at their comeback show in Paris.



For the uninitiated, the Pumpkins formed in Chicago in 1988, and have made some really really really really really good rock albums.
