Product Description
EXPLICIT VERSION
Amazon.com
Taking inspiration from little known British band Curve, the formula behind Garbage was simple enough: Industrial strength beats, grungy guitars and ice queen vocals. But in Scottish fireball Shirley Manson the three middle-aged studio whizzes from Wisconsin not only found a muse but a front woman whose infinite charisma and wicked sense of humor--as evidenced by the title of this greatest hits set--gave even No Doubt a solid run in the hits race. For a few years, the group ruled the charts with shiny metallic pop gems like "Queer," "Stupid Girl," and "Only Happy When It Rains," hampered only by some remedial lyrics and a penchant for cribbing other bands' melodies (see: The Pretenders aping "Special"). There's a discernible dip in quality midway through this collection, when at the turn of the millennium Garbage seemingly lost its fire, but at least the group's token James Bond theme, "The World Is Not Enough," is more Shirley Bassey than Sheena Easton. Fans who are already up do date with the originals will want to pick up the special edition set that features a bonus disc of remixes by some of the biggest players on the '90s electronic music scene, including Massive Attack, The Crystal Method, and Unkle. --Aidin Vaziri

 Great mix of songs July 6, 2010
G. Loney (Arkansas)
I bought this as a gift for a friend, but we have both listened to it and really enjoyed the variety of songs. The CD does have a few more songs than the DVD of the same title.
a must have for any garbage fan July 1, 2010
Tambourine (USA)

Absolutely Absolute! March 24, 2010
Stephania Gerry (San Francisco, CA)
This cd is worth it for the track It's all Over but the Crying. Such a powerful and emotional song that had me in tears the first few times. Garbage continues to impress me no matter what they do. Shirley Manson is a goddess in heavy eyeliner

Love this CD, it has all the classics, but I was disappointed that Supervixen wasnt on it....oh well...Still good
Wow - this band is AWESOME November 9, 2009
R. Meinhard (Orange County, CA USA)
I have rediscovered Garbage after having heard a couple of their songs on the radio back in the 90's. EVERY song on this compilation is awesome! Shirley Manson's singing is absolutely mesmerizing. Butch Vig was with a band called "Fire Town" back in the 80's - they had a great sound and were very unappreciated. Lightning strikes twice. Highly recommended!
