Where this album fits

Career context
Released in 2001, 'Greatest Hits Video Collection' captures The Smashing Pumpkins at a transitional phase following their commercial peak in the late '90s. This compilation came after the band's ambitious but polarizing double album, 'Machina/The Machines of God,' which marked a departure from their earlier sound. The collection serves as a retrospective of their formative years and as a bridge to their evolving artistry.
