Smashing Pumpkins Release 'Being Beige' Video (A Top Story)


.
On Wednesday Smashing Pumpkins Release 'Being Beige' Video was a top story. Here is the recap: (Radio.com) Fresh off of releasing their latest album, Monuments to an Elegy, at the end of the year, Smashing Pumpkins have shared a video for one of the record's standouts, "Being Beige."

Contrary to the title, there's nothing very beige about the slow-burning song. It's an increasingly surreal visual that offers just as much to decode as any one of frontman Billy Corgan's blog posts.

The three-and-a-half minute clip juxtaposes Corgan's bare face with black and white carbon-like graphics of fossils, flowers, and the moon. There's also two seemingly unexplained naked nymph-like women who catch on fire while hovering over the ocean.

Even though the track features drum work by Tommy Lee, he doesn't make an appearance in the video. Instead the only other bandmate Corgan is joined by is guitarist Jeff Schroeder. Watch the video - here.
