Smashing news: former Pumpkin nears end of second album
Mike_Diver by Mike Diver January 31st, 2006

Former Hole and Smashing Pumpkins bassist Melissa Auf Der Maur is hard at work on her second solo album, Billboard has revealed.

Auf Der Maur has enlisted a wealth of talents to help her put the finishing touches to the as-yet-untitled record. Among the names of those on board is a certain Billy Corgan, no less.

"I went in to innocently make some demos with them, but by the end of (last) summer, I started realising that material was more genuine," shhe told Billboard.

No release date has yet been set, but we're reckoning the autumn's as good a guess as any.
