In summary, the lead singer of the Smashing Pumpkins, Billy Corgan, has a new band called Zwan which formed last year after the breakup of SP. While some may argue that Zwan is decent, others believe that the Smashing Pumpkins were better. The band's bassist, Paz, was previously a member of A Perfect Circle and is considered attractive by some.

SP broke up and the lead singer (somehow forgot his name) has a new band that got together last year, which is Zwan. They're pretty good.

If by they're pretty good you mean they totally suck, then I would have to agree with you.

ever since billy corgan started shaving his head, he looks like a qtip to me. I've never liked s.p. so it follows that i don't like zwan. although, their bassist (paz, who originally was the bassist for a perfect circle) is quite the hottie.
