Kaboom! (The Chicks Rock Write-Off)

by dustygold , Dec 17 '01
Pros: A new Garbage album! Go baby go!
Cons: It's a mess.
Today I have my second anniversary here at Epinions. My gorgeous friend kristinafh has hers as well. I've known KFH for almost the entire two years we've been here. I met her under some very, very odd circumstances (let's not go there!),...

Garbage Worth Listening To

by jackai , Jun 12 '02
Pros: Experimenting with their sound, BeautifulGarbage comes up a winner
Cons: May not be as cohesive as their last two projects
Leave it to Garbage to create an album that comes off sounding like a Honky Tonk gone to the Rave. On their third studio album, BeautifulGarbage -- a title lifted from a lyric in Hole’s Celebrity Skin CD -- marks a shift in the band’s ...

Go, baby, Go! (The Beautiful Garbage Review)

by kiljoi , Sep 22 '01
Pros: more mature, better music, more complex lyrics.... they just keep on growing.
Cons: none....
Super-awesome-amazing group Garbage is back with a new super-awesome-amazing album, and I'm afraid that no one's gonna listen.......

Why? 'Cause I like it. I'm a curse to bands. What two things do Joan Osborne, Shawn Colvin, The...

Underrated Garbage

by cyb3rdude007 , Oct 04 '01
Pros: Filled to the brim with catchy rock tunes!
Cons: A couple slow off-beat moments.
The more I listen to "Beautifulgarbage" the more it's infectious grooves grows on me. Garbage's latest and greatest album definitely has a pop feel, but hardcore fans shouldn't worry. They haven't quite ditched their distinctive alternative-electronica...

Beautifulgarbage - song-by-song review

by pookiebear6 , Jul 12 '08
Pros: Unique wonderful lyrics and melodies
Cons: None, though a couple of songs verge on the repetitive.
Released October 2001, three years after their previous Version 2.0 album, the CD resulted in four major releases in 2001 and 2002: Androgyny, Cherry Lips, Breaking Up the Girl, and Shut Your Mouth. While not as well received as their previous ...

A disappointing departure from their style...

by dtoombs , Oct 07 '01
Pros: Finally getting a release from Garbage after so many years...
Cons: Put it back in the oven, it ain't quite done yet...
First off, let me say that I'm a big fan of Garbage and have been since day 1 - own both their CDs, and still listen to both on a pretty regular basis. I've seen them in concert each time they've come through my town, and think their musical style is...

I hate puns.

by defiled_cherub , Aug 07 '02
Pros: different sound(s), not V3.0, straightforward lyrics
Cons: different sound(s), not V3.0, straightforward lyrics
BeautifulGarbage is Garbage's latest album, released 3 years after the success of 1998's Version 2.0. With the exception of the track, Breaking Up The Girl (which sounds a lot like V2.0's Special ), Garbage's new album is quite a...

Change is good. Sometimes.

by mswonderland , Jul 18 '02
Pros: Caters to the new teenage fad in music. A few moments of toe-tapping.
Cons: Uber-pop, seems strained, lyrical content lacking. Where's the guitars?
Garbage emerged on the rock scene in 1996 with edgy, guitar-driven alternative rock that had intervals of electronica thrown in to broaden the sound. BeautifulGarbage is the band's third full length album, and instead of broadening the sound this...

Give it another listen

by -moey- , Oct 12 '01
Pros: A wide variety of musical styles are offered.
Cons: The new style takes some serious getting use to.
Let me start out by saying that I fell for Garbage based on the angry power-rock songs. I hold songs like "Vow", "13 X Forever", and even the radio-pimped "I Think I'm Paranoid" near and dear to my heart. I like my Shirley bitter, torn, violent,...

A Girl in the Men's Room

by Pyanfar , Oct 05 '01
Pros: A step forward that still keeps that extreme attention to detail
Cons: Slower, often mellower, and sometimes sad and bittersweet
After Garbage's self-titled first album, the fast success of Version 2.0 made it clear that this band was a force to be reckoned with. During a time of post-grunge fallout and alt-rock confusion, when being predictable and sticking to the...

Happiness for unhappy people

by ruby710 , Jan 02 '02
Pros: Every track but one or two
Cons: "Parade" and "So like a Rose"
Shirley Manson once said she was thrilled after she read a review saying that Garbage's music created happiness for unhappy people. That is the perfect way to put it. I bought this CD on the first day it came out because I love this band, they have been...

I will love Garbage 'til the day that I die.

by thepremier , Nov 14 '01
Pros: Catchy and addictive songs. Refined sound.
Cons: Songs might not receive much radio time.
The time has finally arrived - the new Garbage CD is finally here. Even before I purchased it, allegations were everywhere that the songs were lacking in certain "garbage" qualities that were there in the past. There were allegations that the CD was ...

Blondes have more # 1 singles

by emmafrost , May 29 '02
Pros: Shirley maintains her charm, at times songs are clever.
Cons: Overly calculated, synthesized, random, and ear-splittingly poppy.
I’m a bit speechless really…a 3 year gap between each Garbage album has consecutively only implied their finest workmanship. With their latest however, it sounds as if they worked tirelessly for the first two years, said “f**k it” and just started...

No-one's untouchable

by seraf , Nov 16 '01
Pros: Some tracks with Garbage at their indispensable formulaic best
Cons: The poor tracks give 'Garbage = garbage' proponents fodder for their argument
With their 1994 eponymous debut and 1998 follow-up 'Version 2.0' Garbage have proven themselves time and again with well-produced, usually formulaic pop/rock gems. Now they come to us under a rosy sleeve, a dodgy album title ('beautiful' and 'garbage' in...

Version 2.0 it's not....

by urbangirl , Dec 08 '01
Pros: Catchy songs, some really awesome lyrics
Cons: May not be the usual Garbage album you'd expect
When I bought the self titled album, I was in love. When I bought Version 2.0, I thought I would never play another album again. When I bought Beautifulgarbage.....I had a hard time listening to it for at least a month.

Listening to this...
