"The album’s second single 'Silvery Sometimes (Ghosts)' is the Pumpkins we know and love, oh, how we love them. Open-road drumming and guitars falling in line, dreamy keyboards and Corgan’s nasally promise.", 4 stars out of 5 -- "The band’s ‘reunion’ album is eight tracks that boast the finer strands of their DNA without relying too much on nostalgia as a crutch.", 3 Stars Out of 5 -- "Corgan's Ear for Pop-Hooks Is Keen Throughout...", "From the off, there's a more carefree and optimistic mood to proceedings....It's new territory for the Pumpkins, but one that suits the group's inherent sense of grandeur."

The Reunited Smashing Pumpkins Deliver a Shiny, Bright, Melodic Album That's Disarmingly Positive.
