Garbage will be celebrating their 20th anniversary by releasing a three-disc deluxe edition of beautifulgarbage on October 1st via UMe. Each disc has something for everyone and a previously-unheard single called “Androgyny” will featured be on the first CD.
Shirley Manson, singer of Garbage, shares her thoughts on the band’s upcoming anniversary: “We wanted to celebrate the release of our third album in the same manner as we have celebrated the 20th anniversaries of our previous two records, as we cherish this third child of ours just as much as its predecessors. Over time it has garnered more and more respect from our fans, with many of the songs remaining in rotation in our live sets to this day. We’ve always felt incredibly proud of this record and felt it was in many ways very much ahead of its time.”
Androgyny is when an individual has both masculine and feminine traits. Lyrics like “boys in the girl’s room” and “girls in the men’s room” accurately fit an androgynous concept. The song tells the audience to keep an open mind when they talk to people and not to assume their genders. The video does require some viewer discretion, but nothing too out of control is happening.
As of last week, Garbage launched a US tour supporting Alanis Morissette. Tickets are now on sale.
