The Smashing Pumpkins - Aghori Mhori Mei

The Smashing Pumpkins have returned with their 13th studio album, Aghori Mhori Mei, which marks a significant moment for the band. This release comes shortly after the departure of long-time guitarist Jeff Schroeder and follows last year’s expansive triple album, Atum. What’s most intriguing is how frontman Billy Corgan took inspiration from the band’s early ’90s creative approach, attempting to blend the past with the present. The result is a concise, 10-track album that aims to reconnect with the raw energy that first made them icons. But is it worth your time? Let’s dig into what the critics think.
