From the radio to the internet, here’s Smashing Pumpkins new single, Tarantula. It’s off of their upcoming album, Zeitgeist, due out in July.

It is reminiscent of old school SP, as if it came off of the Gish album. This is good, in my opinion, as I didn’t really care for SP’s late albums, which had an electro-pop feel to it. Overall, I really like the single, and I’ve been a hardcore fan of SP since the Siamese Dream days. I still have my Pisces Iscariot CD, and even though it is worn to death, it still gets the occasional listen from me.

i like how this song kinda comes full circle back to gish-era sound. Im loving this tune and I hope its only a taste of what the rest of the album has in store!

I love it! I think it is about time they put a new album out. Part of me wishes it was the original line up, but I will take what I can get. WELCOM BACK!
