Billy Corgan

In seven years, he wrote and recorded practically alone, drums aside, Gish, Siamese Dream, the collection of outtakes Pisces Iscariot, Mellon Collie, and Adore. Machina I and II were still decent, although far from the earlier works. Then came the Swan misstep and the solo career. Zeitgeist and Teargarden, well. And just when it seemed like everything was over, he gives birth to Oceania, which, in my opinion, is just slightly inferior to Adore, a summa of the first five albums in a single work.
