In June of 2007, the re-united and re-vamped Smashing Pumpkins eschewed a traditional US tour and opted
to play two residencies in Asheville, NC and San Francisco, CA. If All Goes Wrong captures the band at a
moment of unprecedented creativity, crushing uncertainty and undeniable gravity. Culled from hundreds of
hours of footage and featuring a two hour concert full of rarities from throughout the band’s entire career to
date along with a number of new compositions not available anywhere else, If All Goes Wrong is the
Smashing Pumpkins warts-and-all, a band at its creative nadir striving for what comes next, but not quite
sure what it is that that future holds.
A comprehensive marketing plan for this release will begin online and will branch out to include extensive
radio promotions, a dedicated publicity campaign, a limited theatrical run and a street team presence around
the band’s late Fall 20th anniversary tour.
The Smashing Pumpkins have sold over 18 million albums in the United States alone.
Their latest release, Zeitgeist, has been certified Gold by the RIAA.
This is the first full concert ever released by The Smashing Pumpkins. Their two previous video releases,
Greatest Video Hits and Vieuphoria, were compilations. Both have been certified Platinum by the RIAA.
The Smashing Pumpkins have recently seen a surge in popularity due to the inclusion of `The End Is The
Beginning Is The End` in the `Watchmen` trailer. That song just recently broke into the Top 100 on iTunes
and the Top 10 on the iTunes Alternative chart.
The band has a new single at radio this Fall in conjunction with their inclusion in the latest incarnation of
the Guitar Hero video game franchise.
The band will be embarking on a 20th anniversary tour this Fall that will see them playing arenas in
select major markets throughout the US.
