Smashing Pumpkins premiered the video for their Guitar Hero exclusive "G.L.O.W." today on MySpace Music. You can watch it hereif you're in the mood to see Billy Corgan slinking around in a hooded sweatshirt. (Though it's quite dramatic when he peels the hood off before singing. Very nineties.)"G.L.O.W." is one of the better recent SP tunes. It has this schlocky "c'mon, c'mon, c'mon feel it" thing going on in the chorus but the bridge is tight. As for the video, it looks like an episode of CSI. Everything is treated with this blue filter.CSI is such an awful show.
Anyway, Smashing Pumpkins are currently touring, playing self-congratulatory sets much to the chagrin of paying concertgoers, though if you're down to see Corgan play unaccompanied guitar solos in lieu of "Cherub Rock" or "Rat in a Cage" it just may be the tour for you.
