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!),...
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 ...
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...
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 ...
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...
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...
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...
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,...
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...
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...
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 ...
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...
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...
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.
