Billy Corgan's awesome insanity continues to unravel

Always expect the unexpected

The Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan has again showed some refreshingly disarming erraticism, and that's why we love him. 

The cat-loving, wrestling fanatic, who last year released a pretty incredible album in the form of Monuments To An Elegy, but now he's left social media in order to pursue another new endeavour. 

As captured by Consequence Of Sound, Corgan put out one final Tweet before deleting his account to launch a new project - a Tumblr of photos of people and their cars. Its name: People And Their Cars. Check it out here.

To bring you up to speed on the concept, it's lots of vintage photos of people, yes, with their cars - as well as a few pics of ships, bridges, old women and things. Everyone needs a hobby, but we are keen to hear another new Pumpkins' album soon.

In other news, Corgan has also spent the year touring with Marilyn Manson, looking sad at Disneyland and loathing the current state of guitar music
