Pumpkins' Corgan gets Germs.

Ever heard of a pumpkin with germs? No it’s not a joke. It’s the latest news that Smashing Pumpkin’s leader Billy Corgan is starting an as-yet-unnamed label and has signed the Germs as one of its acts along with the Electric Prunes and Strawberry Alarm Clock. The label’s co-founder Kerry Brown said “in the near future we plan on recording two songs that Darby Crash wrote with Pat Smear, “Out of Time” and “Beyond Hurt”. They were written, but then Darby committed suicide and the songs were never recorded.” The original line-up will be recording these “new” songs: Pat Smear (guitar), Lorna Doom (bass), Don Bolles (drums) and Shane West will be singing. http://pitchfork.com/news/37504-billy-corgan-launches-record-label-signs-the-germs/
