A statement on the Smashing Pumpkins website has confirmed those reports that the band are reforming to record a new album. Well, I say reforming, it's not yet clear which band members will be joining Billy Corgan in the reunion, though drummer Jimmy Chamberlain seems certain to be involved. Anyway, the statement on the band's website reads thus: "It's official, The Smashing Pumpkins are currently writing songs for their upcoming album, their first since 2000. No release date has been set, but the band plans to begin recording this summer."
