On October 13th, William Patrick Corgan of Smashing Pumpkins will release a new solo album produced by Rick Rubin, titled ‘Ogilala’ and it will soundtrack the silent film ‘Pillbox’. That all plays together for this fresh music video from the Chicago alternative vet who delivers a dreamy acoustic ballad with candy-cotton sweet ambiance that plays into a “ a hero’s journey.” It’s quite trippy and surreal in the best way. It reminded me of the fantasy film ‘ The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus’.
‘PillBox’ will be screened in limited release, including a special event at the Music Box Theater on October 11th with Corgan and the film’s director Linda Strawberry on hand.
