Billy Corgan is great!

Billy Corgan was one of the most successful songwriters and musician in the nineties. He was lead singer of the band the Smashing Pumpkins which war marginally successful in the US and overseas. Corgan is very well known for his unique voice and ability to range nominally higher than many singers. The band produced a whole array of music types and genres but was mostly labeled as alternative. Some of the most genius songs Corgan put out with the band were a strange mix of heavy metal guitar rifts with alternative type lyrics and style. It was largely accepted by thousands of adoring fans and continues to do so today. The Corgan is sometimes referred to as a control freak and a hard band mate to get along with since he wants to do everything himself…but you have to admit that puts out quality stuff. After the breakup Corgan went on to attempt the life of a solo artist, but really warranted little response as a whole. Thus the pumpkins were put back together and continue to put out the strange mix of their metal, goth, alternative style. Corgan is also a unique individual in that he stepped away from the normal fashion of the many crazy rockstar hairstyles and simply shaved his head. He debuted the look on the bands appearance on SNL in 1995 and has seemingly kept the look ever since. Corgan took his band platinum, was nominated for many Grammys, and forever shaped the music of the nineties and today.
