GARBAGE - TO RELEASE SPECIAL 20TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION OF SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM

September 2nd 2015 – Garbage today announced they will release a special 20th Anniversary Edition of their critically acclaimed self-titled album in celebration of its historical debut. The new version will be re-mastered from the original analog tapes and feature all of the remixes and previously unreleased tracks from the lauded album.

This is a very special occasion for all of us in garbage. We are particularly excited about the upcoming tour ­– the intent of which is pretty much the celebration of a 20 year long affair between us and those who have loved us. ­– SHIRLEY MANSON

Garbage released their genre defying, groundbreaking debut on August 15, 1995 at a time when grunge music dominated the airwaves and mainstream culture. Their distinctive approach to songwriting and production – blending elements of rock, pop and electronic music – captured the attention of critics and fans all over the world. The album spawned multiple hits including: “Vow,” “Queer,” “Stupid Girl” and “Only Happy When It Rains.” It spent more than a year on both the U.S. and U.K. charts, received multi-platinum certifications around the world and was nominated for GRAMMY® Awards including Best New Artist and Best Rock Song (“Stupid Girl”). The album went on to sell over 4 million copies worldwide.

To celebrate 20 years as a band, this October Garbage will embark on a special U.S. and European Anniversary Tour. Christened the 20 Years Queer Tour, the band will play their debut album in its entirety for the first time. A full list of dates can be found below.

Tickets are available for purchase now. Check Garbage.com for additional ticketing information. Torres will support on their U.S. dates and Dutch Uncles will support in Europe. The band will offer VIP experience packages for the U.S. tour through Adventures in Wonderland.
