Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness

Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness

The Smashing Pumpkins

This whole box set takes me back to a time of self-discovery where I was awed by a music video of a weird band whose sound was so dreamy yet rebellious that I could wrap my teenage personality around it.

Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness is framed as a day in the life of an angsty youth that captures the emotional swings of adolescence. The double album is explicitly split into two halves. Dawn to Dusk represents daytime, youth, and the friction of interacting with the outside world, while Twilight to Starlight transitions to adulthood—a shift from rage to melancholy.

Listening to the album fuses the kid watching “1979” for the first time on MTV with the adult revisiting it past the twilight.
