One of Smashing Pumpkins weak points was Billy Corgan’s tendency to be melodramatic. Thankfully this is NOT one of those moments. Actually, Gish was pretty free of that kinda thing, but Disarm keeps Siamese Dream from being perfect.
Anyway, Snail is one of my all-time favorite songs. I’d highly recommend you go out and buy this CD or LP if you haven’t already. Unfortunately this YouTube clip sounds really compressed and tinny and doesn’t do the song the justice it deserves.
