Smashing Pumpkins Announce Tour, New Album Details
The Smashing Pumpkins, anchored by bassist Nicole Fiorentino, have announced an October tour of the U.S. The 12-city trek will focus on intimate venues spanning coast to coast and serve as a warm up for 2012, which will also see the release of a new album, Oceania.
Oceania will be the group’s first full-length release with Fiorentino, who joined the group after an open audition.
Set for a release early next year, the project is described as “an album within an album,” as it is a continuation of the on-going 44-track epic, Teargarden by Kaleidyscope. So far, all of Teargarden has been available for free download, though no word has come on the availability of Oceania.
