I'm a Garbage fan, at least I really liked the second CD (1st is OK), and I know there are a bunch of other fans here. I've seen them live (twice!) and the songs translate amazingly well to the stage. So I was anxious for their latest, "Beautiful Garbage", which seems to have landed with a thud several months ago. Reviews were mixed, but English press seemed to like it somewhat better than US.
So I avoided buying it new and just found a copy for $4 because the cover is missing (don't tell MacDEF), so I bought it. Well, I've listened to it all the way through, and something's missing. You've got the same over the top production at work, but the songs fall flat. It's also like Shirley's trying to soften her image, but I liked her better mean.
Any other fans disappointed?
