“Cherub Rock” blasts open #SiameseDream (1993) like a tantrum in fuzz form — walls of guitars, sarcasm thick enough to choke on, and Billy #Corgan throwing shade at the whole indie world.

He set out to trash the alt-rock purists and accidentally gave them their anthem.

Those reverb-drenched riffs still sound like rebellion bottled in distortion.

Pure irony: a song meant to flip off the scene ended up defining it.
