Although the Smashing Pumpkins had only released two studio albums by 1994 (1991's Gish and 1993's Siamese Dream), they had an overflow of songs that were either relegated to B-sides on European singles or remained unreleased. Billy Corgan proved to be one of rock's most prolific songwriters of the 1990s alt rock movement -- as the quality of these early leftovers were often just as strong as the songs that were officially released. Since nearly all of these songs were never issued domestically, the B-side/rarity collection Pisces Iscariot was issued alongside their first long-form home video, #Vieuphoria. The collection proved to be a feast for fans -- it's inexplicable why such exceptional rockers (Plume, Hello Kitty Kat, Frail and Bedazzled, Blue) and ballads (Obscured, La Dolly Vita) weren't featured on albums. Also included is the long and winding, 11-minute epic jam fest Starla, which proves that Corgan was one of the finest (and most underrated) rock guitarists of the '90s, as well as a pair of unlikely covers -- Fleetwood Mac's gentle Landslide and the Animals' psychedelic Girl Named Sandoz. Also included are insightful liner notes (strewn with typos) from Corgan. While it's not the definitive B-sides collection of pre-Mellon Collie Pumpkins (such tracks as Bullet Train to Osaka, Purr Snickety, Apathy's Last Kiss, My Dahlia, Jackie Blue, Glynis, and others are nowhere to be found), Pisces Iscariot contains some of Corgan and company's finest moments. ~ Greg Prato, Rovi
