Just got these the other day and I'm blown away. The whole package is awesome. The content, the artwork, the remastering...everything. They make the Pearl Jam deluxe sets look like a total joke.

Billy Corgan really needed this project to take off like it did, didn't he?

Multi-cam pro-shots with soundboard audio. They're gorgeous.

The Gish dvd is a little rough but watchable. The Siamese Dream dvd is pro shot but not hd. Interesting to see the growth in 2 or 3 years.

The Pitchfork review for these two reissues is glowing. It actually made me feel good inside for liking these albums as much as I do. It's probably too late to put either of these on my Christmas list, but I may be spending Christmas money on one of the boxes come January.

If you can only get one I'd go with Siamese Dream. Better dvd and musically I like it a bit better than Gish.

Gish gets more listens from me, though I think that Siamese Dream has stronger songs and arrangements. I credit this phenomenon to things like this:

I had forgotten just how good Gish is. So meandering and dreamy.


and this:

In contrast to Gish's steady flow, Siamese Dream crashes out of the gate...

...Siamese Dream's songs don't blend into each other, but some transitions exist...


Flow, basically. Gish just works.

I found the Siamese Dream(song) demo on YT. All i can say is 'Goddamn! How did this one slip away??'. :shock:

Bought the Siamese Dream reissue today. The packaging on this thing is just stellar and I have watched about half of the DVD and I love it. Hopefully we will get the final Metro show at some point. Can anyone hear much of a difference between the original album and the reissue? I think I'm missing something.

It's a remaster, so it won't sound drastically different - the levels of all the instruments and so forth aren't going to be altered like they would in a complete remix (like the Brendan O'Brien version of Ten). The 24bit digital files are spectacular, I wish all bands would take as much care when reissuing their old stuff.

Didn't realize there was actually a title track somewhere. This is really good!

Anyone have any links to sites that host all of the unreleased stuff and b-sides? I remember years ago there being a site that had all of the demos and stuff but I can't find it...

Does the vinyl reissue come with any of the extra stuff you guys are talking about?

Not that I've seen. Just the remastered albums.
