Smashing Pumpkings (aka, Billy Corgan and the other guys) are starting to release new songs on the band's Web site. They're free.

Yesterday, they released "Widow Wake My Mind." It's a little more pop than I'd expect to hear from the band. The four-and-a-half minute track has a hint of '70s in there... nothing fancy in the lyrics.

The first song released for the new album was "Song for a Son." It came out in December and is a mellow track that starts out acoustic and slowly builds into more of a classic rock riff.

Both songs are part of the ongoing 44-track project called Teagarden by Kaleidyscope.

All the tracks will eventually be released as 4-song EPs.
