Everybody, apparently.  Another hate song about everybody who's a bad guy in a world of chaos.  Getting old and tiring.

I wonder who this is about?

So, they're still around ey? I did not know that.
Not a very captivating tune imho, but still, nice to hear that sound and Mansons voice

Start at 7, partly for old times' sake

HA!  Well, Shirley has had both hip-joints replaced, which explains the final song, the Day I Met God, and a certain line that had me thinking "what in the hell is THAT?" and doing a quick google search:   What was that certain line you ask?

"I found God in Tramadol.  "

What the hell is Tramadol?  Scramble scramble, look see, look see.  Oh...

"Tramadol is an opioid agonist that may be used to treat moderate to moderately severe chronic pain in adults."  

That explains that.  When both your hip joints are going bad, I guess that accounts for her "religious" experience.  I've been fortunate.  I'm 12 years older than Shirley and suffer no maladies.  I chalk it up to luck and good genetics.  

But I get it.  I've friends who've gone thru that sort of thing and it comes to this.  Aging and its concomitant partner, Time, is a brutal marathon affair that grinds everyone down in one fashion or another.  Having something to relieve it must be like experiencing god, don't'cha think?  At least it allowed her to create some most righteous music in a style that is all Garbage.

If I might paraphrase; "holy shit! they're still good, and now even more relevant!"

I'm older than when they first came out, I trust you can say the same.  As is Garbage.  But boy, in listening to this album it's pretty clear they've still got it.  Older, maybe a bit more, heck a lot more, cracked, chipped and bruised.  That final song of theirs, Talking to God, pretty much confirms this.  And aren't we all?  

But they're still tapped into a groove of a musical source that got them to the first set of musical heights, and it appears they're well on their way to a second look-see from those vistas yet one more time.  And probably for the last time (not jinxing just acknowledging that Time is having its way with us all), but baby they're doing it with glory, aren't they?

I'd be happy if it rains.

Yes, same! The end of that song really lands.

Thank you so much for playing fomr the new Garbage release! Some bangers on this album; not sure this is one of them but I'll take it.

FRESH GARBAGE!!!!!!  Smells better than old garbage. JK. Love Garbage. I didn't even know they were still around.

Great to hear some new Garbage - I had no idea they were even still together. Great track on first listen!

Nice sentiment, killed by the repetition at the end.

There are some great tracks on the new Garbage album. The last one really got me, it’s seriously warped. 

Shirley Manson can do no wrong.
