Smashing Pumpkins at the Plissken Festival
What : When the Smashing Pumpkins first emerged out of Chicago in 1988, the world had never heard a band quite like them. They spun together rock, pop, shoe-gaze, metal, goth, psychedelia, and electronic into a kaleidoscope of saccharine melodies, fuzzy distortion, bombastic orchestration, incendiary fretwork, eloquent songcraft, and unshakable hooks. Upon their formation, their sound was different, iconoclastic, and wholly new—and it still is today. This multiple award-winning band comes to Athens as part of the Plissken Festival’s star-studded line-up this summer. Book your tickets now!
When : 16 July 2024
