Garbage will reissue a 20th anniversary edition of their third studio album, Beautiful Garbage, in October.
The album saw a slight departure for the band in terms of their sound and delivered four hit singles – ‘Androgny’, ‘Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go)’, ‘Breaking Up The Gir’l and ‘Shut Your Mouth’. None of them got higher than number 20 in the UK singles chart (Version 2.0 had delivered three top ten hits in Britain).

The good news is that the band are reissuing the album as a three-CD deluxe edition (in a clamshell box) with a much more satisfying collection of bonus material when compared to the last two anniversary editions. The album itself is remastered and CD 2 offers B-sides and alternate versions with six previously unreleased selections. CD 3 is concerned with remixes and also features a couple of previously unreleased mixes.

There will be album-only 2LP sets, one as black vinyl and one as white vinyl. The deluxe box set edition, similar to before, features a 3LP set, with the bonus vinyl record featuring 10 B-sides. In addition there’s a selection of replica memorabilia.
Beautiful Garbage will be reissued on 5 November 2021 (was 1 October). This is also a good time to tell you that the 2LP pink vinyl reissue of Garbage’s debut has now been confirmed for National Album Day on 21 October (the black vinyl is out this Friday).
