Smashing Pumpkins Share Video For ‘Empires’

Smashing Pumpkins recently shared the official music video for their single “Empires.”

“Empires” features on Smashing Pumpkins’ upcoming album Atum, which is set to drop on May 5 and is a sequel to 1995’s Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness and 2000’s Machina/Machine Of God.

Featuring 33-tracks in three acts, Atum was written and produced by Billy Corgan over the past four years. Twenty-two tracks have been released to date, as the band dropped Act Two in January and Act One in November 2022. Act 3 will come with a special edition boxset featuring all 33 album tracks plus 10 additional unreleased songs.

The alt rock band kicked off the Australian and New Zealand leg of The World Is A Vampire Tour on April 15 with a show at Stuart Park in the city of Wollongong, New South Wales.
