1001 Albums Summary

awesome drummer

OK. Over-rated.

This album is amazing - so much love for these talents. Genuine soundtrack of the failed social revolution - get your fat pipe out and start groovin' to irrepressible sixities beats and kaleidoscopic riffs.

This album is an entire mood.

Like to say there's something important happening musically in this album, which did go Platinum in the US...so they must have done something right in connecting to the disaffected youth of the 90s? Garbage the band was apparently the "brainchild" of Butch Vig and Duke Erikson - Vig went onto produce Nirvana's Nevermind album, and the album's most well known track, Stupid Girl, borrows drums from The Clash's Train in Vain, and baselines from Credence Clearwater Revivial's Susie Q. But great music transcends time and makes you feel something. This album contains glimmers of genuine cool, but at its worst, is crass commercialisation of anti-establishment sentiment that makes me want to skip most of the tracks. Overall? More mash than bangers....skip this Garbage.

amazing

Such incredible music from a kiddie fiddler.
