December 2010-February 2011 - Pumpkinland II, Northbrook and Coldwater Studios, Los Angeles
Produced by Billy Corgan and Kerry Brown; engineered by Bjorn Thorsrud
The third set of recording sessions for the Teargarden by Kaleidyscope project. The band's line-up now included Corgan, Jeff Schroeder on guitar, Nicole Fiorentino on bass and Mike Byrne on drums.
Jeff Schroeder: "The last two songs on Teargarden, Lightning Strikes and Owata, were the first times the four of us recorded together. Oddly enough, it took what seemed to be a crazy-long time to do two songs. When you're working piecemeal, you can lose focus on the big picture. So doing Oceania was more in line from what I grew up with. I'm an album guy." Billy told me that a couple of the new songs happened spontaneously in the studio.[1]
