Smashing Pumpkins - Tonight Tonight

The Smashing Pumpkins' distinctive sound up until Adore consisted of layering numerous guitar tracks onto a song during the recording process, a tactic which Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness coproducer Flood dubbed the "Pumpkin guitar overdub army". There were a few overdubbed parts on Gish but Corgan began to really explore the possibilities of overdubbing with Siamese Dream; Corgan has stated that "Soma" alone contains up to 40 overdubbed guitar parts.
