Watch Smashing Pumpkins Throwback To ‘1979’ On ‘Howard Stern’

The Smashing Pumpkins appeared on yesterday’s episode of The Howard Stern Show. The band led by Billy Corgan was on the long-running SiriusXM program to unveil The World Is A Vampire Tour and also performed a few songs including the classic “1979.”

The Pumpkins were also on Howard Stern to promote their new three-part album Atum (pronounced “autumn”) with the third and final Act 3 arriving on May 5. As Corgan noted when the band announced the project, Atum is a sequel to the band’s 2000 album Machina/The Machines of God and 1995’s Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.

Smashing Pumpkins performed the Mellon Collie classic “1979” on The Howard Stern Show. Watch below:
