More than 15 years after its original release, the Smashing Pumpkins' Adore, returns as a double LP. Adore, the follow up to the band's mega-successful 1995 double album Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness, offered a new entrance to the band's career as Corgan experimented with and without the band as Jimmy Chamberlin's absence played as large a role as his presence might have in the making of the record.

Rolling Stone writer David Wild calls Adore "the surprisingly beautiful sound of a great band falling apart." Capturing a transitional period in the Smashing Pumpkins' history, Corgan was glad to revisit the songs from this highly-personal album.
