If I told you that “Drown” is the best song that the Smashing Pumpkins ever released, would that be a hot take? Or is it conventional wisdom? I don’t really know how most people think about “Drown,” but I still cannot believe how good that fucking song is. It’s the Pumpkins’ contribution to the hugely important soundtrack of the 1992 film Singles, and even though it never became a single, it’s probably one of the reasons that the band blew up the way they did. When that guitar riff chimes in, I feel like I’m blissfully floating in an endless expanse of pink foam.
