The Smashing Pumpkins have revealed the video for new single 'Being Beige'. Watch it below.

The song is taken from the band's latest album, Monuments To An Elegy, and its new video sees a close-up shot of lead singer Billy Corgan interspersed with footage too varied and strange to explain.

Speaking to Gigwise last year about Monuments To An Elegy, Corgan said, "I haven't seen this monumentum from the fan base, probably since Mellon Collie. Which is pretty wild because I'm used to them moaning and saying it's not 'pick your record' - so it seems to be that's over finally. I thought the day would never come."

He continued, "I don't feel like I'm even close to getting the credit that I deserve, which is a weird thing and I even hesitate saying it. Immediately somebody says 'what does that mean?' What I mean by that, is that I wrote more hits than anybody in my generation - I'm not seen as a songwriter. I helped launch a bunch of people playing in guitar bands - Muse being the perfect example: the sound, the feel, God bless them, they're a great band."

Monuments To An Elegy is out now.
