GARBAGE’S 20TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION OF SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM OUT TODAY

20 YEARS QUEER TOUR KICKS OFF NEXT WEEK

 

Game-changing record  Rolling Stone

 

Their seminal alt-pop record  SPIN

 

Together, Garbages mission was to upendor queer, if you willalternative rock. In 1995 their debut, Garbage, did exactly that, with a tightly orchestrated technicolor riot of electronica, rock, hip-hop, dance, and pop.  Noisey

 

Its an important record for many reasons, not the least of which is that it helped bridge the gap between noisy alternative rock and mainstream pop  incorporating everything from burgeoning electronica to buzz-saw guitars and just the slightest whiffs of trip-hoppy industrial music.  Stereogum

 

In celebration of its historical debut, Garbage’s special 20th Anniversary Edition of their critically acclaimed self-titled debut album is available in stores and at all digital retailers today. The new version has been re-mastered from the original analog tapes and features all of the remixes and previously unreleased tracks from the lauded album. To purchase the CD package, click HERE. To purchase digital album configurations click HERE. For a complete list of the available album configurations (digital and physical) see below or click HEREListen to a track off the re-mastered album instantly HERE.
