Corgan ha anunciado que sacará un disco de 44 canciones que irá sacando en tandas de 4 canciones y serán descargables gratuitamente cada vez que acabe 4 hasta llegar a las 44. Sacará EPs limitados de cada 4 canciones y al final un box-set con las 44 canciones con lo que supongo que esperará sacar algo de pasta.
El nombre del disco será "Teargarden by Kaleidyscope" y estará basado en el tarot, por lo que se puede esperar una frikada enorme ahora que Corgan está obsesionado con la espiritualidad, dios, Jesús y se sospecha que se ha metido en una secta hippy californiana con un rollo parecido a la cienciología. Mirad su Twitter lleno de referencias a dios o Jesús y su nueva página para hablar de espiritualidad:

En el segundo Twitter, el de su nueva página, se puede ver que hasta Jessica Simpson, conocida por ser una gran intelectual, está interesada.

I'm happy to finally announce the plans for the new Smashing Pumpkins album.
Recording began yesterday, September 15th, 2009 on the new record which will be entitled 'Teargarden by Kaleidyscope'. The album will feature 44 songs, 4 of which are now being recorded. My desire is to release a song at a time beginning around Halloween of this year, with each new release coming shortly after until all 44 are out. Each song will be made available absolutely for free, to anyone anywhere. There will be no strings attached. Free will mean free, which means you won't have to sign up for anything, give an email address, or jump through a hoop. You will be able to go and take the song or songs as you wish, as many times as you wish.
We will however sell highly limited edition EP's (of 4 songs each times 11), and details of how those EP's will be made available are still being worked out. Because the songs themselves will be free, the EP's will be more like collectors items for the discerning fan who will want the art itself, along with the highest possible audio quality available. The EP's will be more like mini-box sets rather than your normal cd single. We may also offer other variations for sale, say for example a digital single with a demo version of a song. The commitment that is most important is the one I'm making to you: that the music of 'Teargarden by Kaleidyscope' will be available for free to everyone. All 44 songs: free for ALL.
When the entire album is finished, it will be compiled into a deluxe box set which will also be made available for sale. Those who have bought the EP's need not worry, as the box set will not be a recompilation of the limited edition pieces.
The story of the album is based on 'The Fool's Journey', as signified in the progress of the Tarot. It is my intention to approach this by breaking down the journey of our life here into four phases as made by these different characters; the Child, the Fool, the Skeptic, and the Mystic.
The music of 'Teargarden by Kaleidyscope' harkens back to the original psychedelic roots of The Smashing Pumpkins: atmospheric, melodic, heavy, and pretty.
I already have 53 songs written for the record, so I am quite confident that I already have much of the material that I would need to undertake such an extensive project. I am very committed to seeing this album through to its completion and very, very excited about the prospect of delivering new Smashing Pumpkins music to you in a unique and exciting way.
Y esto es una coña que ha hecho uno en Digg que si no te has enterado de lo de Kanye West y Beyoncé en los premios de la MTV no entenderás, pero a mí me ha hecho gracia:
