March 29, 2005, 6:36 pm    Digital Release of Entire Smashing Pumpkins Catalog

Source: Paste Magazine April 5 marks the date that the entire Smashing Pumpkins catalog will be available in the digital domain for the first time. The band has been waiting and watching the regulation of digital music to ensure their fans receive proper access to the Pumpkins’ music in the most reliable and fair formats. The band has cranked out an impressive 227 songs in its 10-year existence. All the official album releases are here as well as 114 non-album tracks, including rare imports, long-out-of-print songs, obscure covers, soundtrack releases, vinyl-only B-sides and limited editions. Smashing Pumpkins founder Billy Corgan worked closely with Virgin/EMI on this project (while simultaneously preparing to release his solo debut TheFutureEmbrace). The Smashing Pumpkins campaign extends to traditional retail, as well, with special CD-sale pricing on the band’s catalog for a limited time. All major DSPs, including Apple iTunes, Real/Rhapsody, MusicMatch, Napster, Sony Connect, WalMart.com, MusicNet/AOL and MSN will generate customized visibility promotions for Smashing Pumpkins’ digital launch. In addition, previously unavailable live and concept video will drive promotions on major internet-service providers.
