The band's new album, "Zeitgeist", was released that same month on Reprise Records, entering the "Billboard" charts at number two and selling 145,000 copies in its first week. "Zeitgeist" received mixed reviews, with much of the criticism targeted at the absence of half of the original lineup. The album divided the Pumpkins' fanbase. Corgan would later admit, "I know a lot of our fans are puzzled by "Zeitgeist". I think they wanted this massive, grandiose work, but you don't just roll out of bed after seven years without a functioning band and go back to doing that".
