Lipps Service with Scott Lipps

Smashing Pumpkins drummer Jimmy Chamberlin joins Scott Lipps for an in-depth conversation about the music, memories, and legendary drumming that helped define alternative rock.

In this special drummer-to-drummer episode of SPIN Presents Lipps Service, Jimmy takes us inside the world of The Smashing Pumpkins, from the band's earliest days and the making of Gish to the groundbreaking albums Siamese Dream and Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness.

Jimmy discusses working with producer Butch Vig, developing his signature sound, and the stories behind iconic Smashing Pumpkins songs including "Tonight, Tonight," "1979," "Bullet with Butterfly Wings," and "Geek U.S.A."

He also reflects on his jazz influences, early experiences playing in polka bands, the impact of drummers like Stephen Perkins and Matt Cameron, and how the alternative rock explosion of the 1990s changed music forever.

Scott and Jimmy get deep into the art of drumming, the evolution of the Smashing Pumpkins, and what it takes to create a musical legacy that continues to inspire generations.

Whether you're a lifelong Pumpkins fan, a drummer, or simply love great rock and roll stories, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

Watt takes Scott through his journey from growing up on Long Island and hustling around New York City to becoming one of the most in-demand producers, songwriters and musicians in the world.
