Martin Barre MCNIDDER & GRACE

Retracing Our Steps (2007–2014) KSCOPE

The weird and wonderful alt.rock Brits fizz back with a new album after a seven-year absence.

Thirty years after its release, Billy Corgan looks back at the making of The Smashing Pumpkins ’ era-defining big, bold, bombastic masterpiece Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness .

After Grace , JEFF BUCKLEY retreated from fame into a bare Memphis shack, chasing darker sounds, deeper truths and a new creative path. As a new documentary confronts the realities of his life, family, friends and collaborators reflect on the restless search and the fragile rebirth. “He was trying to figure out where he fit in the universe spiritually,” they tell Nick Hasted. “He was trying to make his A Love Supreme .”

On the back of their first album in 42 years, the prog-rockers are currently playing shows in the UK.
