MACHINA!!!...i prefer SP's harder stuff. i didn't like the whole deal without jimmy chamberlain. that phucker is an awesome drummer. plus machina was darker. adore was more commercialized.

Adore does it for me. Its just as dark of an album as Machina is... "Shame" is an awesome jam. Although some of the songs are kinda fruity, Im feelin the techno aspect of it. I didnt really like Machina because they tried to combine hard driven rock riffs with techno beats (the imploding voice), and it just didnt work.

As much as I love hard, rip-em-a-new-hole Alt-Rock, Adore's my favorite SP album, and second favorite of all time (ahead of Abbey Road, behind Kid A, and that top 3 is always changing between the three). When it came out, I was in a pretty down mood and, among other things, thought that there could never be a band that could be as great in a genre as the Beatles were to rock.
I had heard some Mellon Collie and Siamese Dream songs at that point, but took a chance on Adore the week it came out, and fell in love. It's just an all encompassing look at life, death, love and withdrawal from the negative aspects in life becoming negative itself. My only regret is that Jimmy wasn't in the band to drive those songs at that point... it still wouldn't have been a rock album, but Jimmy's drumming could've given it a pulse.

I prefer Adore. I'm loving the PERFECT most. I was under the impression that this was not one of their popular albums, was I wrong?

Its a very popular hard-core Pumpkins fan CD, however it is not a popular commercial record. Ive noticed that on a lot of SP message boards, Adore and Siamese Dream are the ones people like the most...

i think MCIS is harder than Siamese Dream because of songs like jellybelly, zero, bullet with butterfly wings, fuck you, tales of a scorched earth, and especially x.y.u.

Lyrically I would say that MACHINA is one of the best albums of all time, and, although I may be in the minority, I do prefer MACHINA over Adore.
