Garbage: Bleed Like Me

Next Tuesday my wife and I are going to see Garbage in NYC. They are touring to support their new album Bleed Like Me. Here's the track list:
  • 1. Bad Boyfriend
  • 2. Run Baby Run
  • 3. Right Between the Eyes
  • 4. Why Do You Love Me
  • 5. Bleed Like Me
  • 6. Metal Heart
  • 7. Sex Is Not the Enemy
  • 8. It's All Over But the Crying
  • 9. Boys Wanna Fight
  • 10. Why Don't You Come Over
  • 11. Happy Home
In general, I find the record just fine. It starts off really well. After track 4 it gets a little weak, but remains fine. It's harder than previous Garbage efforts. More guits with a lot of distortion. I like that part. The drums are better than usual, but that's because Butch Vig only plays on 2 tracks. Dave Grohl and some other session guy sat in for the rest of it.

In the end. If you like Garbage and / or Shirley's voice, you'll like this work. It's just fine.
