The Smashing Pumpkins, who emerged as a hallmark of 1990's alternative rock with an infectious mix of grunge and shoegaze, will be touring Europe and North America this year.
The Chicago-based rockers will be accompanying fellow 90s' rock outfits Weezer in parts of their European tour before playing alongside Green Day, Rancid and The Linda Lindas in North America.
The band's most recent release was the third and final installment to "Atum: A Rock Opera in Three Acts," which acted as the band's 12th studio album.
