There's been rushed -- -- -- -- when he -- what we're gonna do is gonna break down the album and besides. It's not as simple as so. They set it beside it the old days because for maximum equality for all you underneath gram -- fans we've actually broken down into four sides it's not a double album. I'd still only sixty minutes on the music actually sixty minutes six seconds so I like to take you threw down a little bit and hopefully -- take that journey with me. -- it's with the -- Quasar which what was a rift that I had land around since 2009 and we kept playing and playing and playing in. And eventually through lots practicing we came with the idea that it would be perfect opening the album and endeavor to make it be this kind of welcome to the galaxy kind of feeling so I hope you hear that like we do and we and we pay the -- seem to be hearing Quasar and optic on the Celeste -- and -- -- many of these songs. Were conceived in Sedona Arizona. But the band began 2011 in an abandoned a movie theater and wrote a lot of the original themes and sketches which became the -- album. Other at the time we were really struggling because although we felt very strongly about the ideas I wasn't able to transform into the kind of songs that I felt. Were worthy of a Smashing Pumpkins album we've been releasing one song at a time for free and Internet for awhile but. We found that -- songs for being so absorbed so quickly that we wandered back to the idea of making an album. So here we are -- -- this beautiful setting and it's just not clicking at that other level and fortunately. My friend good friend mark to one of the electric transmission and it was of founding a pioneering. Psychedelic and from 1966. And went -- influenced many alternative bands to follow he passed away right around the time we are in Sedona. And so if you listen to queries are you here mark's name mentioned in songs so here Quasar and -- on the celestial and violent race sighting of the team. Do you -- -- And oh. You. News. -- I. We know. Yeah. And yeah. -- Games. -- -- -- -- Welcome back that was Heidi Oceania this -- are -- Smashing Pumpkins you're listening to inside the Smashing Pumpkins Oceania. We're doing as we're walking through the whole album on a side by side broken down in its final components ABC in the so we come back we're gonna listen to side B of Oceania. Which is has actually some of my favorites on the governments of acoustic.
