Tuesday night, December 11th, the Smashing Pumpkins played Jimmy Kimmel Live, performing  “Silvery Sometimes (Ghosts)” and “Knights of Malta” from their recent Shiny and Oh So Bright, Vol. 1 / LP: No Past. No Future. No Sun.

The band opened their mini-set with “Silvery Sometimes (Ghosts),” with frontman Billy Corgan donning a red coat over his silver dress and tear-like face paint, which contrasted with the rest of the band’s all-black clothing. The screen behind them displayed a phantom-like woman.

Corgan worked the stage as grungy guitars lines moved the song forward. “Stunning and stunning and stunning the black,” he sang in his leathery voice, “You turn turncoat/ Inward to seek out all your hopes/ It’s your signals/ That hurts me most/ We’re in the middle/ We’re in the middle, Ghosts.”
