Pumpkins debut and for me their best.they did follow it up with some excellent albums but Gish tops them.
Verified purchase: No
'Gish'. Pumpkins debut album. Raw. Experimental. 'I Am One', 'Bury Me', 'Tristessa' blast along at break-neck pace, showcasing Billy Corgan's heavy riffs and individual guitar sound. 'Rhinoceros' is psychedelic rock, with a haunting undertone, dreamy, hypnotic. Jimmy Chamberlin's drums are sharp, tuned high, sounding tight. Amazing fills. Quick. Subtle. It is evident listening to this album that 'Siamese Dream' was just around the corner. These are essentially the two best Pumpkin albums. 'Melancholy' was good but too long. Then they changed direction, injecting electronic music into their alternative rock sound, Corgan a self-confessed Depeche Mode fan. Mode are great. But the pumpkins are 'Gish'. This album rates up there with 'Bleach' and 'Ten' as an early-nineties classic rock debut album. Raw. Tight. Individual. Ghost BookFiends.Read full review
This is such a great album, it brought us the Smashing Pumpkins in 1991 (UK 1994)...This Album was the start of it all for the Pumpkins, with great tracks such as I Am On, Siva, Rhinoceros, and the only song D'arcy wrote and sang, Daydream is superb in my opinion. Not has spine tingling as Gish's 2 year older sister Siamese Dream, but still a great Pumpkins album. A must for any SP fan.
