It's been reported that Nine Inch Nails frontman Trent Reznor slammed the reactivated Smashing Pumpkins on Friday, just hours before his group performed jsut before the Pumpkins at the Reading Festival in the UK. According to NME.com, Reznor has some issues with Billy Corgan not reuniting the band's original lineup. Aside from Corgan, drummer Jimmy Chamberlin is the only original member of the Pumpkins performing with the group. Reznor said: "I was never a big Smashing Pumpkins fan back when they were the Pumpkins, not to shit on Billy or anything but I don't hear anything that would make me want to care. I think trying to resurrect the name Smashing Pumpkins... it's all a bit corporate for me."
Nine Inch Nails is touring in support of its latest record, Year Zero. Smashing Pumpkins is promoting Zeitgeist, the first collection of all-new material under the band's name since 2000.

Has Trent 'The Hack' Reznor hear his latest crap? The last 3 albums have been nothing but shit. He needs to stop commenting on other bands and worry about the slop of shit that he calls NIN.
