THE SMASHING PUMPKINS have formally announced their new double album. It’s called CYR and arrives on November 27th via Sumerian Records.

Produced by singer-songwriter Billy Corgan, the 20-track album was recorded in the band’s hometown of Chicago, Illinois and includes previously released singles “Cyr” and “The Colour of Love”. In addition to Corgan, the album features founding members James Iha and Jimmy Chamberlin, along with guitarist Jeff Schroeder.

THE PUMPKINS have also announced an accompanying animated series. Titled In Ashes and created by Corgan, the series spans five episodes and comes soundtracked with new music. The first two episodes - “As the Crow Flies” and “Inspirations, Aspirations”- arrive on September 25th.

You can watch a trailer for In Ashes at this location, and the the Linda Strawberry-directed music video for the title track below.
