Billy Corgan
I mean there's certainly a lot of progressive rock and metal that exists at the underground level, which has its own vitality, as it should. But it seems to have lost its ability to really charge up the hill.
Billy Corgan
The simplest way that I can understand therapy is that we're born a certain way, we're taught to be something different, and we spend our whole lives trying to unravel it.
Billy Corgan
Rock in the mainstream culture has lost a lot of its mojo.
Billy Corgan
Stay in school. Lie to your teachers, but stay in school.
Billy Corgan
Every year that goes by, I lose that much more motivation to play rock.
