"Tiberius"

Having spent the weekend playing with Peter Hook, Smashing Pumpkins main man Billy Corgan has now shared a new track from the band's forthcoming Monuments to an Elegy in the form of "Tiberius."

The song begins with quietly tinkling piano, and it isn't long before the fuzz enters and the song adopts a theatrical crunch. But despite the noisy arrangement, this tune favours melodic sweetness over pure brawn.

This song follows previously unveiled album cuts "One and All" and "Being Beige."
