The Smashing Pumpkins have unveiled their new single 'Being Beige (World's On Fire)'. Check it out below. 

The first taster and opening track from Billy Corgan and co's new album, Monuments To An Elegy, is a sweet, acoustic affair that starts as something not too distant from his material with Zwan, before bursting into an arena-ready stadium chorus - with drums courtesy of none other than Tommy Lee of Motley Crue. 

Telling Rolling Stone about the track, Corgan said: "People always ask me to explain songs, and honestly I can’t. But if there’s honesty in this lyric, it’s that there’s something amiss in our cosmos. Yet still, we must love."
