“@Smashingpumpkins is set to make 2 videos (think part A and B) for our forthcoming EPs,” Corgan writes. “Exciting stuff!”

Corgan previously said that the first new single from the reunited ’90s rock vets would arrive in May.

In addition to the Pumpkins plans, Corgan has also shared an update on his new solo material, which he plans to release over four EPs.

“I guess you could argue [it] makes for a double album in the aggregate,” he says.

The Smashing Pumpkins will launch their Shiny and Oh So Bright reunion tour in July. As previously reported, original bassist D’arcy Wretzky is not involved.
