The Smashing Pumpkins preview CYR album with two new tracks "Purple Blood" and "Dulcet in E"
The Smashing Pumpkins continue to preview their forthcoming double album CYR with another two-track drop, "Purple Blood" and "Dulcet in E".
"Purple Blood" and "Dulcet in E" follow last month's "Ramona" and "Wyttch" songs and previous CYR tracks "Anno Satana" and "Birch Grove", "Confessions of a Dopamine Addict" and "Wrath", and lead tracks "Cyr" and "The Colour Of Love".
CYR will be the band's 11th studio LP, and follows on from 2018's Shiny and Oh So Bright, Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun.
The Smashing Pumpkins recorded the 20-track album in Chicago. Lead vocalist Billy Corgan produced the album, which is performed by founding members Corgan, James Iha, Jimmy Chamberlin and guitarist Jeff Schroeder.
