Smashing Pumpkins - Inside The Dream Machine 1993
The release of Siamese Dream in July 1993 is one of the landmark moments in modern music. Rock had been re-formed in the early part of the decade after a period of mid-life crisis during the 80s, and a kaleidoscope of new styles emerged - from the neo-punk of the Seattle Grunge scene to Trent Reznor's electronic-tinged industrial sound.
With Siamese Dream , Smashing Pumpkins managed to assimilate a plethora of these different sensibilities into a single, arching vision of alternative rock; they included a little of everything into the albums ambitious sweep, with many commentators drawing a comparison between the Pumpkins and the grand vision of 70s prog groups.
Inside the Dream Machine comes from the Siamese Dream tour, and a concert at Bing Crosby Hall in the Del Mar Fairgrounds, California on the 26th of October 1993.
The band perform most of the album, including a sparkling version of Disarm , but with a stripped-back and heavy live arrangement that is a fascinating contrast to the deliberate and textured production of the studio recording. With the best of Gish also featured in the set list, Inside the Dream Machine , broadcast on the Westwood One radio network, is the quintessential record of Smashing Pumpkins at the zenith of their career, a must for both fans of the group and those with an interest in the energy and creativity of the 90s alternative scene.

PRE-ORDERS
Flying Nun only debits your account for a pre-order when it has actually landed in our store. We believe this is fair because supply can often be unreliable - availability and release dates frequently change without notice. Pre-order with Flying Nun and you can cancel any time prior to the product arriving at our store.
OUT OF STOCK ITEMS
Flying Nun only make products available to purchase on our website when they are actually physically held at the store (except pre-orders). Vinyl availability from all local and international suppliers changes on a daily/hourly basis. Therefore, it is not possible to guarantee an online order for many items not currently held in stock.
