With a little over a month to go until The Big Pink release their sophomore album Future This, you might think that the lads would be spending time in their live performances trying to get the new songs down perfectly. Either they already feel that they’ve accomplished this already, or they just want to break loose and have some fun by covering The Smashing Pumpkins in the middle of their set. Either way, we’re appreciative to hear their take on this fan favourite. While they have been playing it in their proper gigs, this recording comes courtesy of their stop in BBC’s Live Lounge, hence the superior sound quality. Check it out below.
