I remember being so young in love with the band, somehow my buddy kyle k. had Gish and I listened to it before I stole my cosins "mellon collie" cassettes... I immediately fell in love with the Pumpkins and my dad bought me the CD. it wasn't 'til later i realized that purple cheap looking old CD my buddy had that reminded me of Guns n Roses was in fact the band that went on to control my life months earlier, Gish is my least favourite besides Zietgiest but a great CD.
