Garbage Review: Version 2.0

Garbage

Version 2.0

Review Score:

(10/10)
Garbage keeps on changing their sound, and it's for the better! For example, the eponymous-is that spelt right?- debut was a bit on the grungy side. This album is a bit grunge with a but dance. And beautfifulgarbage was a dance album, except Garbage style.

1.Temptation Waits- I don't really think that this was the best way to start the ablum, I don't think any of these tracks are good openers, except maybe When I Grow Up. The song is really not a gem, but worth listening to.

2. I Think I'm Paranoid- A favorite of mine, I think the way they did the chorus was excellent, it sounds rather angsty.

3. When I Grow Up- This song makes me laugh. It's that funny. It's a good song though.

4. Medication- This song starts off really slow then the chorus is a little faster. It's an interesting song but you can get tired of it after a while.

5. Special- This song was nominated for a Grammy. I've actually grown to like this song a bit better, but it's not a favorite.

6. Hammering In My Head- This song is angst-like. It's an amazing track. Shirley sounds very impressing when, about halfway into the song she breaks into "You should be sleping alone..."

7. Push It- This song starts out really funny, like music you'd hear at a circus. It's really good and has many parts- you'll see what I mean when you hear the song.

8. The Trick Is To Keep Breathing- This song is good but after a while it gets rather dull. It is a depressing song, but it's good.

9. Dumb- This is a really good track, rather unique, but it's not really a track that will get stuck in your head. It's worth a spin.

10. Sleep Together- This song surprised me. Who ever thoguht Garbage would do something so bold? The song is actually quite good, and is a high point in the album.

11. Wicked Ways- This song is a rockier song. It's very good, but the lyrics are a bit confusing. The chorus is probably the best part.

12. You Look So Fine- This song reminds me of 'Milk', which was the closing track for the previous album. Although the topics are a bit different, they both have the same feel and are both great tracks.
