MySpace Music officially launched in September 2008 and has since become a global leader in the digital music space and the platform of choice for artists at all levels to share their content with music fans around the world. In a little over a month, MySpace Music has exclusively premiered new albums and singles from such high profile artists as Guns N' Roses, The Killers, Kanye West, The Cure, Oasis, Beyonce, Justin Timberlake, Linkin Park and John Legend amongst others.
MySpace Music revolves around the millions major, indie, and unsigned artists that use their MySpace music profiles to communicate and intimately connect with fans and friends. Each music profile empowers artists to upload video content, blog, post tour dates, lyrics, and make their music available to fans for stream or download. As one of the most popular and highly trafficked music platforms in the world, MySpace Music has evolved into an offline experience by connecting bands and fans around the world through various concert series and live events.
The Smashing Pumpkins have created one of the most acclaimed bodies of work in musical history and sold over 30 million albums.
Formed in Chicago in 1988, they released Gish, their influential (and platinum) debut in 1991, which was followed by more platinum and multi-platinum albums including the nine-time platinum Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness and the four-time platinum Siamese Dream as well as the platinum certified 1998 album Adore.
The pivotal group's many hits defined the alternative music era and continue to resonate on modern rock radio, influencing a whole new generation. The Pumpkins returned in 2007 with their gold-certified and acclaimed sixth album Zeitgeist, which entered the charts in July at Number 2 in the U.S and in the Top Ten internationally.
Since their triumphant return to the stage in 2007, the Pumpkins have headlined some of the biggest events around the globe including the Reading Festival, Rock Am Ring, and the V fest. Earlier this year, the band was inducted into Hollywood's RockWalk. Their first post-major label release was the song 'Superchrist,' issued via the Guitar Center CD Fresh Cuts Vol. 2.
On November 11, 2008, the band released their first live DVD, If All Goes Wrong.
