Artist: Garbage
Album: Beautiful Garbage
Track: Cup Of Coffee

“Garbage is just a producer’s puppet band”....?!! NO... The Monkeys were a producer's puppet band (and even THEY didn't like it). Garbage is made up of veteran musicians and a charismatic female vocalist who survived the “New Wave” in the 80’s, Grunge in the 90’s, the criticism of their successful band's formation and the nit picking of their popular music. The result…fun, mostly techno-pop songs that are a bit off beat and catchy as hell. Their third album, Beautiful Garbage,





which was released in 2005, should have ended the “assembly-line” criticisms they’ve had to endure. It still has plenty of catchy but there is a nice big dose of unique and shuffling alongside all the bouncy weirdness is a very distinct dark, somber, even morose.

If all they do is copycat…they are damn good at it…everybody from Annie Lennox to Radiohead. Try to get past the big red lipstick and listen for awhile. You might be surprised.

This is my favorite Garbage song on this or any of their albums...

Cup of Coffee.
