The
Smashing Pumpkins have announced that they will release a four-song, acoustic EP early next year.
'American Gothic' is due out on January 2 via US
iTunes. Artwork for the EP will be available the same day on the Smashing Pumpkins' website.
Frontman
Billy Corgan and
Jimmy Chamberlain co-produced the EP, along with
Roy Thomas Baker, who produced one song. It was recorded at
Los Angeles' Pass Studio while the band were on a break between their 2007 and 2008 tours.
“We have always regretted not recording more in between tours because albums have never caught the full story of the group...it's sort of
'Zeitgeist' plus,” said
Corgan in a statement, adding that the title
'American Gothic' is a “continued comment on the state of our country.”
The tracklisting is:
'The Rose March'
'Pox'
'Again, Again, Again (The Crux)'
'Sunkissed'
