TRACKLISTING: 1 The Rose March, 2 Again Again Again (The Crux), 3 Pox, 4 Sunkissed,

OVERVIEW: Smashing Pumpkins will release an acoustic EP entitled 'American Gothic' on February 11th on Martha's Music/Reprise. 'American Gothic' collates four exclusive new tracks that were recorded in Pass Studio in Los Angeles when the band were taking a break from touring. Produced by Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin (with one track co-produced by Roy Thomas Baker), the EP features the songs 'The Rose March', 'Pox', 'Again Again Again (The Crux)' and 'Sunkissed'. "We have always regretted not recording more in between tours because albums have never caught the full story of the group...it's sort of 'Zeitgeist' plus," said Corgan of 'American Gothic', the title of which is "continued comment on the state of our country". The release of 'American Gothic' coincides with the band's upcoming arena tour, the dates of which run as below. Smashing Pumpkins made a rapturous return to the live arena with a number of low-key shows across North America and Europe. Kerrang! described the Paris show as "stunning" whilst the band also received unanimous praise for their Shepherds Bush Empire show that sold-out immediately. They also proved to be a highlight of the Carling Weekend with strong performances at their headline slot at both sites. 'Zeitgeist' entered the UK album charts at # 4 and proved to be a worldwide hit. To date it has yielded two singles, 'Tarantula' and 'That's The Way (My Love Is)'.

About the humble CD single:

Another digital format and even though they can hold 80 minutes of information (like a CD album would) record companies only fill up a small portion of the disc. Sometimes only 1 or 2 tracks on there totalling 5 minutes or so. It's like going to a restaurant and getting a plate of food with 2 green beans on and wondering where the rest of your meal is. Sometimes they're lovingly packaged though and when the music is good then you're into a winner. Also you get videos on there sometimes which you can watch on your computer. That is excellent.
