Billy Corgan's New Band Zwan
Reported by mailman
Billy Corgan's new band Zwan, a new band with some familiar members, makes their concert debut in California this month. According to the band's official Web site the group is comprised of Billy Corgan, "Jimmy" on drums, "Matt" on guitar, and a bass player called Skullfisher. The site provides no further information on the project except for a straight forward mention of the four club dates. But there's more to Zwan than some first-name-only musicians, the Jimmy on drums is former Smashing Pumpkin Jimmy Chamberlin. Matt the guitarist is reportedly Matt Walker, Some fans on the still very active Smashing Pumpkins message boards think Skullfisher could be one of the band's ex-bassists - D'Arcy Wretzky or Melissa Auf Der Maur. The band's sound is allegedly prog/goth rock but the world will have to wait for the first show November 16 to find out what that means.
