Starchilden were a side project band that Billy Corgan put together when the original Smashing Pumpkins were still around. He started the band in 1990. They played a small handful of gigs between 1990 and 1994. The band also included (at times) Jimmy Chamberlain and James Iha from the Pumpkins. They only had 2 official releases. Their cover of
Isolation on the Joy Division tribute album,
A Means to an End and a on original song on a split single with the band, Catherine (who also had members in Starchildren). Their song on the split, Delusions of Candor serves as the only original song they've ever released.
The song is more inline with the Pumpkins' experiment side. Lots of phaser effects on the guitar. One could even say that the song is very shoegazer. Anyway, here it is.
