Zeitgeist will be released in four different versions through major corporate outlets. There are specific editions for Best Buy, Target and itunes and a normal boring version for everyone else. Each of the three special editions will have a specific bonus track on each one. Excellent. Now THAT's value-for-Billy's-wallet right there. I cannot enthuse enough about how disgusting this is. It's hard enough for poor, struggling music fans without a new Smashing Pumpkins album being released. I mean, we were already devoid of originality and talent being pushed by major labels, and what with independent record stores closing down, our choice is becoming ever, ever limited.
So this is what we do - don't buy Zeitgeist. It'll teach baldy a lesson. Instead buy Handsome Furs, Silversun Pickups, Shellac, Asobi Seksu, Girls Aloud ...anything but this. This goes double for fans in the UK (because of the exchange rate - it's like depriving him of the average weekly wage of a New Orleans waitress per album). Of course no one is reading this, but it'd be funny if they were.
