Alternative rock band Garbage has hinted at the release of their highly anticipated new album, slated for spring 2025. The announcement has set fans buzzing with excitement as the band promises to deliver their signature blend of edgy rock and electronic sounds with a fresh twist.

The band took to social media to drop the news, including a series of mysterious visuals and audio snippets that hint at the direction of their upcoming project. While details remain scarce, these hints suggest that the album will explore themes of resilience, self-discovery and reinvention, a hallmark of Garbage’s dynamic approach to music. The band took to Instagram to reveal the news.

This project will mark the band’s first studio release since their 2021 album, No Gods No Masters, which was lauded for its bold commentary on social and political issues. Fans are eager to see how Garbage evolves their sound in this new era, especially after four years of global turbulence and artistic shifts within the music industry.

Industry insiders speculate that the spring release may coincide with a major tour, as Garbage is known for their energetic live performances. The timing also aligns with several prominent music festivals, fueling rumors that the band may headline key events to support the album. Just recently the band performed a live cover of “Love My Way” by the Psychedelic Furs.

Garbage, comprised of Shirley Manson, Duke Erikson, Steve Marker and Butch Vig, has consistently pushed the boundaries of alternative rock since their self-titled debut in 1995. With a career spanning three decades, they continue to resonate with fans old and new by addressing contemporary issues while maintaining their raw, experimental edge.

As fans eagerly await more information, it’s clear that Garbage’s upcoming album has the potential to be one of the most talked-about releases of 2025.
