Smashing Pumpkins translate '90s angst into an evocative mix of dream pop, prog rock, goth, and grunge. The band's sound has rippled throughout various forms of alt-rock: Their swirling guitar effects echo in Starflyer 59's shuddering shoegaze and Deftones' seething mix of metal and melody, while younger bands like Silversun Pickups fully embrace the Pumpkins' drama, even nailing Billy Corgan's throat-ripping howl on "Lazy Eye."
