Directed by: Kevin Kerslake
Released in 1993 as the lead single from the album *Siamese Dream*, “Cherub Rock” is one of the band’s iconic songs, featuring Billy Corgan’s distinct guitar work and introspective lyrics about the pressures of the music industry. Directed by Kevin Kerslake, the music video shows the band performing in a wooded setting, with fast-paced editing that complements the song’s explosive sound. It became a defining song of the alternative rock movement in the early 90s.
