The Smashing Pumpkins and Jane's Addiction will hit the road this October for the Spirits On Fire tour. The tour will be opened mostly by Poppy, with a few dates opened by Meg Myers instead. The Smashing Pumpkins also recently finished recording their new album, so it's probably safe to assume there will be new music by the time the tour comes around as well!
In October 2020, Smashing Pumpkins head honcho Billy Corgan announced via YouTube that the as-of-yet untitled album would be a follow up to 1995's Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness and 2000's Machina, describing it as "kind of like a rock opera." The album presumably wraps a trilogy of music that Corgan began writing after Smashing Pumpkins' landmark second album Siamese Dream in 1993.
More recently, guitarist Jeff Schroeder said there was "nothing [he] can give details on quite yet" regarding the album, but did note that the Pumpkins had "some pretty exciting announcements [to make] at some point…" though he didn't elaborate.
