Smashing Pumpkins' Zeitgeist Cover Art That Never Was


smashing-pumpkins-zeitgeist.jpegFor a while, the Smashing Pumpkins' cover art for Zeitgeist was to be "the 'holy trinity' of Linsday Lohan, Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. They later realized, as Billy Corgan said "they couldn't pull it off". Too bad... I think the cover they went with is a bit trendy and uninspired.

In a recent article at FMQB, Corgan discusses the album cover and the inspiration behind the song "Black Orchid".

Listen to the entire album Zeitgeist here.

Finally, for the uberfan, you can upload a video question for the Smashing Pumpkins at YouTube.
