Shirley Manson Duke Erikson Steve Marker Butch Vig

Garbage are an alternative rock band formed in Madison, Wisconsin in 1994.^[1] The group consists of Scottish singer Shirley Manson (vocals, guitar) and American musicians Duke Erikson (bass, guitar, keyboards, percussion), Steve Marker (guitar, keyboards) and Butch Vig (drums, percussion). All four members are involved in songwriting and production. The band have counted worldwide album sales of over 17 million units.^[2]

Garbage released a string of increasingly successful singles in 1995–1996, including "Stupid Girl" and "Only Happy When It Rains". Their debut album, Garbage, was an unexpected smash, selling over 4 million copies and certified double platinum in the UK, USA and Australia. Garbage won the Breakthrough Artist award at the 1996 MTV Europe Music Awards.^[3]

Garbage spent two years working on follow-up album, Version 2.0, which topped the charts in the UK upon its 1998 release and the following year was nominated for two Grammy Awards, Album of the Year and Best Rock Album. Version 2.0 went on to match the sales of its predecessor. Garbage followed this up by performing and co-producing the theme song to the nineteenth James Bond movie The World Is Not Enough.^[4]

Despite being named one of Rolling Stone's Top 10 Albums of the Year,^[5] Garbage's 2001 third album Beautiful Garbage failed to match the commercial success achieved by its predecessors.^[6] Garbage quietly disbanded in late 2003, but regrouped to complete fourth album Bleed Like Me in 2005, peaking at a career-high #4 in the U.S.^[7] The band cut short their concert tour in support of Bleed Like Me announcing an "indefinite hiatus",^[8] emphasizing that they had not broken up, but wished to pursue personal interests.^[9] In 2006, Vig returned to producing while Manson worked on a solo album (as yet unreleased). Garbage ended their hiatus in 2007,^[10] and released greatest hits retrospective Absolute Garbage. The band began work on their fifth studio album in October 2010,^{[11][12][13][14][15]} which is tentatively scheduled for release around April 2012.^[16]

Garbage are ranked at #60 on VH1s "100 Sexiest Artists."^[17]

History

Formation and early years (1993–1994)

Duke Erikson and Butch Vig had been in numerous bands, including Spooner and Fire Town (with Steve Marker as a sound engineer). In 1983, Vig and Marker founded Smart Studios in Madison and Vig's production work brought him to the attention of Sub Pop.^[18] A short-term reformation and album from Spooner inspired Erikson, Marker and Vig to form a band: tired of using their own work for remixes, they decided to keep the material for their own project. An early comment that their work sounded "like garbage" inspired the band's name.^[1]

Initial sessions with Vig on vocals, along with the members' past work with all-male groups, led to the band's desire for a woman on lead.^[19] Marker was watching 120 Minutes when he saw the music video for Angelfish's "Suffocate Me". He showed the video to Erikson and Vig while their manager Shannon O'Shea tracked down the band's singer, Shirley Manson. When Manson was contacted, she didn't know who Vig was and was urged to check the credits on Nevermind, the popular Nirvana album which Vig produced.^[1]

On April 8, 1994, Manson met Erikson, Marker, and Vig for the first time in London. Later that evening Vig was informed of Kurt Cobain's suicide.^[1] Garbage was put on hold until Angelfish was finished touring North America in support of Live.^[20] Erikson, Marker, and Vig attended the Metro Chicago date, and Manson was invited to Madison to audition for the band. The audition did not go well, but Manson socialized with the men while there and they found they had a similar taste in music. Angelfish disbanded at the end of the Live tour. Manson called O'Shea and asked to audition again feeling that "it would work out".^[1]

Manson began to work on the then-skeletal "Stupid Girl", "Queer" and "Vow" (ad-libbing the line "I can't use what I can't abuse").^[21] Manson had never written a song prior to this session; nevertheless, this time she was invited to join the band.^[1] Lyrics were penned at a cabin in the north woods of Wisconsin while the songs were recorded at Smart Studios.^[22] Conscious of the grunge genre that had made their names, particularly Vig's, the band made every effort to avoid sounding similar, deliberately striving to make a pop record.^[23] When "Rock N Roll Experience" asked what the song "Vow" was about Duke replied, "we kind of hesitate to say what the songs are about... leave it up to the listener"^[24]

Garbage sent out demo tapes with no bio, to avoid a bidding war over Vig's production history.^[18] Garbage signed with Mushroom U.K worldwide (excluding North America) and secured the band a Volume magazine compilation inclusion.^[25] The only potential candidate for release was "Vow", as it was the only song for which the band had completed production.^[19] When released in December, "Vow" began to receive radio airplay on XFM and from Radio 1 DJs Steve Lamacq, John Peel, and Johnnie Walker. Word-of-mouth on "Vow" took the track back to the U.S.^[26] On December 21, Garbage signed to Jerry Moss's label Almo Sounds for North America.^[27] Manson was licensed to both Mushroom and Almo by Radioactive Records for a single album, with no compensation from any of Garbage's labels.^[28]

Garbage hadn't even considered "Vow" for inclusion on the album or even as a single.^[29] Because the exclusive licensing of Volume prevented a full commercial single release,^[22] on March 20, 1995, Mushroom issued "Vow" in a limited 7" vinyl format through Discordant, a label set up just to launch Garbage.^[30] By May, commercial alternative radio in the U.S. had picked up on the track, and it began to receive heavy rotation nationwide.^[31] "Vow" debuted on Hot Modern Rock Tracks at #39. It climbed gradually over the following weeks, peaking at #26 on July.^[32] "Vow" bubbled under for two weeks before it spent two weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 staying at #97 both weeks.^[33][32]

In August 1995, Garbage debuted on the Billboard 200 at #193. In the United Kingdom, its release was preceded by non-album track "Subhuman" and "Only Happy When It Rains" as singles to promote the album instead of "Queer".^[30] The album debuted on the U.K. album chart at #12.^[34] In Australia, the album debuted at #5.^[35] "Queer" was quickly released in the U.K. and Europe, while Garbage began their first tour. Garbage was nominated for Brit Awards for Best New Band and Best International Newcomer.^[36]

Garbage toured for the self-titled Garbage throughout 1996. "Only Happy When It Rains" was released as a single in North America; "Stupid Girl" was released to promote European dates. MTV announced that "Only Happy When It Rains" was certified a "Buzz clip", guaranteeing heavy rotation on its network from February 13.^[37] "Only Happy" peaked at #55 on the Hot 100.^[38] "Stupid Girl" received frequent video and radio airplay in the U.K. and peaked at #4, becoming the band's first UK top 10 hit and elevating the album to #6.^[39]

In May, Garbage reworked "Milk" with Tricky in a Chicago recording studio before supporting Smashing Pumpkins on their arena tour until the overdose of Pumpkins keyboardist Jonathan Melvoin. "Stupid Girl" peaked at #24 on the Hot 100.^[40] Its Top 40 radio remix by Todd Terry received massive airplay.^[41]

Worldwide, the final single release from the album was the reworked version of "Milk", which became the band's second UK top 10 hit. The band performed the song live at the MTV Europe Music Awards in London on November 14; Garbage won the Breakthrough award at the event.^[42] In North America, Almo Sounds released album track "Supervixen" to Modern Rock radio,^[43] while Capitol Records released a remix of "#1 Crush" from the soundtrack to Romeo + Juliet, which topped the Hot Modern Rock Tracks chart for four weeks from the end of the year; the remix was also featured as the theme for the TV show Hex. "#1 Crush" was later nominated for Best Song From a Movie at the 1997 MTV Movie Awards.

Garbage Video, a compilation of the album's promotional videos, was released in November 1997.^[42] Garbage was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best New Artist, while "Stupid Girl" received two nominations for Best Rock Song and Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group

Main articles: Version 2.0 and Version 2.0 tour

Garbage relocated to Friday Harbor, Washington on March 1, 1997 to write songs for their second album. Returning to Smart Studios a short while later, the band found themselves under intense pressure to repeat the success of Garbage. The band decided not to change their formula, but progress musically by pushing their sound as far as it could go—hence the album's eventual title Version 2.0, which was completed by February 15, 1998. In March, the first single "Push It" became the #1 most added record at the U.K. Alternative Radio.^[44] It became their third consecutive U.K. top ten hit at #9.^[39][45]

In May 1998, Version 2.0 debuted at #1 in the UK and at #13 in the Billboard 200.^[34][46] Garbage began touring Version 2.0 on May 15, a tour which lasted until the end of 1999. "I Think I'm Paranoid" was released worldwide in July, while the music video for "Push It" received eight nominations at the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards.^[47] By October 12, "Special" was released and Garbage was nominated for three MTV Europe Music Awards: "Best Group", "Best Rock Act" and "Best Video" for "Push It".^[44] "I Think I'm Paranoid" also made it onto popular games Gran Turismo 2 (even before "As Heaven Is Wide" was onto the first edition of Gran Turismo), and Rock Band and was likewise featured in the Broadway production of "The Blue Room" starring Nicole Kidman. the play was directed by Sam Mendes.

In early 1999, Version 2.0 received two Grammy Award nominations for Album of the Year and Best Rock Album^[48] "Special" was #1 most added single at the Top 40 radio.^[44][49] In Europe, Garbage began their biggest headline tour, releasing singles for "When I Grow Up" and "The Trick Is to Keep Breathing". In April, "When I Grow Up" was released to Modern Rock radio.^[50] "When I Grow Up" was then featured on the movie Big Daddy. Version 2.0 was awarded the European Platinum Award by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry for 1 million sales across Europe and U.S.^[44] "You Look So Fine" was released as the final single from Version 2.0 worldwide, as Garbage toured Europe, including headlining in Edinburgh to mark the opening of the Scottish Parliament.

On August 4, Garbage was contracted to perform the theme for the James Bond film The World Is Not Enough and worked with composer David Arnold in London and Vancouver.^[51] Garbage co-headlined an Australian tour with Alanis Morissette, while "When I Grow Up" spent three months in the Australian chart, becoming the band's most successful single there.^[52] "The World Is Not Enough" reached the top 10s in Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway and Finland, as well as the top 40 in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the U.K.^[52] "Special" received Grammy nominations for Best Rock Song and for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group, while "When I Grow Up" was re-issued in Europe.

Garbage regrouped on April 10, 2001. The group began work on their third record, and put aside plans for a B-sides album due to the sale of Almo Sounds to the UMG. Manson ran an online blog throughout the recording of the album named Beautiful Garbage. During the recording of the album, Garbage invoked a provision of its contract to leave Almo, and sued UMG when it refused to terminate the contract. UMG threatened to use Manson's 1993 solo contract to tie Garbage to the label. The suit was settled on July 29, 2001, and Garbage moved to Interscope. Lead single "Androgyny" was released to radio by the end of August, and its video was released on September 10.^[53] The following day, due to the September 11 attacks in New York City and Washington D.C, the promotional schedule for the album was put on hold.^[54]

Released three weeks after the September 11 attacks, the album suffered from lack of promotion, mixed reaction from critics and fans alike, and the failure of its lead single "Androgyny" to achieve high chart positions.^[55] Despite faltering in major markets, Beautiful Garbage debuted at #1 on Billboard's Top Electronic Albums chart where it stayed for 8 weeks,^[56] topped the album charts in Australia, and was named one of Rolling Stone's "Top 10 Albums of the Year".^[5]

In October, Beautiful Garbage achieved a #13 debut on the Billboard 200,^[57] as well as reaching #6 on the Top Internet Albums chart and topping the Electronic Albums chart for seven weeks. In its first three months on sale, Beautiful Garbage sold 1.2 million copies.^[58]

Garbage supported U2 on the third leg of their Elevation Tour.^[59] After the last show, Vig contracted Hepatitis A and was replaced by Matt Chamberlain for European dates. In December "Breaking Up the Girl" was released as a single and the theme song to the Daria telemovie Is It College Yet?.^[5] On December 27, Rolling Stone's US and Australian editions named Beautiful Garbage as one of their critics "Top 10 Albums of the Year".^[5]

"Cherry Lips" was released at the beginning of 2002, becoming a massive hit in Australia, peaking at number seven on the ARIA Charts, and number eleven in the highly influential Triple J Hottest 100 for that year. Sony Music Japan released an exclusive E.P. of rare tracks titled Special Collection.^[60]

The Beautiful Garbage tour which took the band throughout North and Central America, Europe, Japan, Australia and New Zealand in support of its third album Beautiful Garbage. The Beautiful Garbage tour takes in headline performances, support performances for U2 and No Doubt, and slots at rock festivals and radio shows around the world. A number of notable acts supported Garbage throughout the run of the tour, including White Stripes, Kelli Ali, Queen Adreena and Abandoned Pools. The tour was hampered by problems with the health of the band, with singer Shirley Manson suffering from throat problems and drummer Butch Vig being taken off sick twice, first with Hepatitis A and then with Bell's Palsy. While some shows that Manson could not perform were cancelled, Vig was replaced at first with Matthew Chamberlain and then with Matt Walker, to prevent disruption to the tour dates.

Garbage live at RDTSE 2005

Garbage started proper work on their fourth record in March 2003, writing "Right Between the Eyes" in 30 minutes. It was a false start.^[61] Recording for the album was halted during the summer when singer Shirley Manson underwent surgery on her right vocal cord and was not given the okay to sing again until August.^[62] By October, due to rising tension within the band and a breakdown in communication^[63] Vig relocated to Los Angeles while Manson returned to Scotland.^[64] During the Christmas period, Vig encountered excited Garbage fans eager to hear how the album was going. Not having the heart to tell them Garbage had effectively split, he name-dropped titles to them. After this encounter he realized there was still something left in the band.^[64]

In January 2004 Garbage reconvened in Los Angeles with Dust Brother John King, drummer Matt Chamberlain, bassist Justin Meldal-Johnsen,^[65] and on February 6, Dave Grohl performed drums on "Bad Boyfriend".^[66] His performance was regarded by the band as "raising the bar" for the record.^[64] Following the John King sessions, the band formally relocated to Los Angeles and wrote two new songs, "Metal Heart" and "Boys Wanna Fight",^[64] which were more energetic songs than the band had been writing as well as lyrically more "overtly political"^[64] both songs referencing the U.S. and U.K. led 2003 Invasion of Iraq.

In 2005, lead single "Why Do You Love Me" debuted on the Modern Rock Tracks chart at #39.^[67] as well as #97 and #81 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Pop 100 charts respectively, becoming the band's most successful single for six years. Bleed Like Me entered Top 10 in U.S.^[68]

On August 25, 2005 Garbage cancelled their scheduled October tour dates in France, Belgium and United Kingdom and released a statement that the band had "somewhat overextended themselves" and had decided to conclude their tour in Australia on October 1.^[69] Upfront of the band's Australian tour, "Sex Is Not The Enemy" was released to Australian radio.^[70] The end of the Australian tour marked the end of active promotion for Bleed Like Me.^[71] The band confirmed that they were going "on indefinite hiatus" to dispel reports of a band split.^[9]

Absolute Garbage (2006–2008)

Main article: Absolute Garbage

Manson confirmed in March 2006 that she had begun work on a solo album, adding that she had "no timetable" for completing the project.^[72] Garbage drummer Vig is co-writing and producing for her album.^[73] Much of the work on the album has taken place in Manson's Los Angeles base.^[74] As yet, there is no release date scheduled for the release of the album. Manson recorded a duet with Eric Avery for his album Help Wanted,^[75] and with Debbie Harry, which was not finished.^[76] Manson made low key appearances in She Wants Revenge's "These Things" music video, and self-abuse documentary CUT: Teens and Self Injury.^[77] Vig produced albums for Jimmy Eat World, Against Me! and The Subways, and scored music for two films, including The Other Side.^[78] Erikson is working with the BBC an American folk music anthology, whilst Marker has been involved with a film score.^[79] Garbage ended their eighteen-month hiatus on January 31, 2007, at a benefit show in Glendale, California, organised by Vig to help pay musician Wally Ingram's medical care following treatment for throat cancer.^[10] Prior to this, Garbage had been sharing song ideas via the internet and were keen on getting into the recording studio to complete them.^[80] Garbage began work on the new songs in earnest during February and March at Vig's home studio,^[81] completing four tracks including "Tell Me Where It Hurts", which was released as the album's lead single.

Absolute Garbage was released in July, remastered and including a special edition bonus remix package. A DVD format rounded out the package; among the fifteen Garbage music videos included was a documentary film titled "Thanks For Your, Uhhh Support" featuring backstage and behind-the-scenes footage, live performances and interviews.^[82] Vig stated that Garbage was considering mid-2008 to begin making a fifth album, saying, "We're thinking about it... I think we're more interested in making something that's much more primal and stripped down. Absolute Garbage is the postscript to chapter one. Whatever we do next will definitely be chapter two".^[83] In May 2008, it was announced that Manson would be joining the cast of US TV show Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles in a regular role.^[84] A Garbage track called “Witness to Your Love” was released on a charity, “limited availability,” compilation in the USA. The release was available from Urban Outfitters from Wednesday, October 15, 2008, to Thursday, January 31, 2009, and went on radio in the US on October 17.^[85][86]

Shirley Manson's unreleased solo album

"I had taken some of my solo music into the record label. They didn't really care for the direction I was moving in and I found it really disheartening. They wanted a pop hit, which I understand in terms of making money. I get that. But what they were going to ask of me was something I wasn't prepared to deliver and I felt kind of trapped. I just stopped writing. I just stopped. It was stifling".

Shirley Manson^[87]

A few months into Garbage's hiatus, Manson began writing a solo record, working with songwriter Paul Buchanan,^[88] producer Greg Kurstin,^[89] soundtrack composer David Arnold,^[90] and Garbage drummer Butch Vig.^[73] In 2007, Manson called up a group of artists to collaborate in the creation of songs, including Rivers Cuomo, who at that point had never co-written material with anyone.^[91] Manson presented some of her work to Geffen Records in 2008, who found it "too noir", prompting Manson and Geffen to mutually terminate her contract.^[87] Manson continues to write material while without a record deal and has contacted David Byrne and Ray Davies in hopes of potential collaborations.^[92] Manson has posted three demos on her Facebook profile, written by her and Kurstin, titled "In the Snow",^[93] "Pretty Horses"^[94] and "Lighten Up".^[95]

Manson also worked with a number of artists outside of her solo project, reciting a verse of a long poem for a Chris Connelly album,^[96] recording duets with Eric Avery^[97] and Debbie Harry^[98] and performing backing vocals on a Gavin Rossdale track.^[99] Although not recording material with them, Manson also performed on-stage with The Pretenders, Iggy Pop, Incubus and Kings of Leon in Atlantic City,^[100] with Gwen Stefani^[101] and a further twice with No Doubt^[102] in Universal City. Manson also performed in an uncredited role as a dominatrix in the music video for She Wants Revenge's single "These Things".^[103]

Reformation (2010–present)

On February 1, 2010, it was confirmed through Shirley Manson's official Facebook profile that she spent a week in the studio with her bandmates.^[104] The news came shortly after Butch Vig received a Grammy for producing American rock band Green Day's 21st Century Breakdown, which won "Best Rock Album".^[105] In the post, Manson wrote "Guess who I just spent a week in the studio with? Would you be pleased if I said one of them was called Steve and one of them was called Duke and another was a Grammy-winning producer?"^[104] In October 2010, it was officially confirmed that Garbage are recording their fifth studio album.^[11]

The working titles of twelve new songs, "Time Will Destroy Everything", "Blood For Poppies", "Automatic Systematic Habit", "Control", "Lies, Lies, Lies", "Sugar", "Not Your Kind Of People", "T.R.O.U.B.L.E", "Felt", "Big Brite World", "Alone" and "Animal" were released via Butch Vig and Garbage's Twitter pages as well as Manson's Facebook page.^{[106][107][108]} The group has on several occasions described the sound of the album as "abrasive", featuring "extreme noise",^[109] with Manson going so far as to attest, "All traditional instruments are banned. Instead, one is only allowed to make abstract noise."^[110] Vig has confirmed that a total of 24 new songs are being "ruff mixed" for possible inclusion on the album.^[111]

On September 17, Garbage announced via their Facebook page that the band would release a cover version of an as-yet-unannounced song in October. The band explained, "This track has nothing to do with our new record and will not be included. It is not a single. It is simply a song that happens to be a cover version that you will hear in a matter of weeks, if you care to."^[112] On October 10, it was revealed that the song in question would be a cover of U2's "Who's Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses" for the Achtung Baby tribute album AHK-toong BAY-bi Covered. The compilation CD was released with the December 2011 issue of Q.^[113] The band also clarified that their forthcoming 12-track LP would be mixed and mastered by October 17, while another 12 songs will be finalized by the end of the year and see release as "b-sides, extra tracks and maybe one might even come your way simply as a Christmas present from Garbage as a thank you to you all for sticking around."^[112]

The band announced to Billboard that their fifth studio album is currently scheduled for an independent release in late March or early April 2012, with Vig confirming, "We're looking at this as free agents. We're out of all our corporate responsibilities from the past, and initially we thought that was terrifying but now we think it's liberating. We're going to put the record out on our own label and just figure out how to license it and market it because we want it under our control." Vig also stated that the group would tour next year in support of the record and that the album's first official single would be released worldwide in January 2012.^[16] In another interview with Spin, lead singer Shirley Manson stated, "People we've played it for [have said] it sounds like the first record, and I'm thinking to myself, 'It doesn't sound anything like the first record,' but there is an energy there that's, I think, reminiscent of the first record; a sort of hungriness is there,"^[114] while Vig told Rolling Stone, "I think you can hear some energy and a vibe in the tracks that sounds refreshing - a little bit more to me like the first two records. Somehow we have a collective sound. When we spin the ideas through the four of our brains it comes out and it's kind of a thing that's identifiable.^[115] There's lots of elements of things we've always loved: noisy guitars, big electronic beats, atmospheric film moments."^[16]

Artistry and band status

Garbage performing at the 1998 Reading Festival

Garbage's sound has often been described, not only by the band and fans, but also by critics, as being alternative rock, post-grunge, electronic. During the early days of the band, some songs such as "Only Happy When It Rains" and "Stupid Girl" were described as grunge, whilst some disagreed.^[116]

Garbage have been inspired by Curve, The Pretenders, Blondie, Roxy Music, Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Smashing Pumpkins, and My Bloody Valentine.

All four Garbage albums, Garbage (1995), Version 2.0 (1998), beautifulgarbage (2001) and Bleed Like Me (2005) have been recorded at the band's recording studio, Smart Studios, located in Madison, Wisconsin. Since the early days of Garbage, all singles and songs have been penned there, and produced by Butch Vig. Other bands to record at Smart Studios include, among others, The Smashing Pumpkins, and demos for Nirvana's 1991 album Nevermind.

At the conclusion of the episode, Weaver is revealed to be a liquid-metal T-1001 Terminator. Manson also performed and co-arranged a rock and blues version of the gospel song "Samson and Delilah" for the episode's score.^[119] Manson cites actress Glenn Close and former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher as her acting influences for the ambiguous character.^[120] Manson also played the human Weaver in archive footage viewed by the T-1001 in the episode "The Tower is Tall, But the Fall is Short".^[121]

Vig worked with Jimmy Eat World on their sixth album, Chase This Light, released in October 2007. He is also working on soundtracks for two new movies, which include the unreleased The Other Side. Vig produced his first English band The Subways' on their second album, worked with Tom Gabel of Against Me! on his solo EP, 'Heart Burns', with Green Day on 21st Century Breakdown - which later won a Grammy Award in the category of Best Rock Album - and Foo Fighters, in both two songs for greatest hits release and their studio album Wasting Light.^[122] Recently, Vig has been partnered in duties by his engineer and mixer Billy Bush who also worked on Garbage's albums and live tours.

In 2008, Manson became involved with the Pablove Foundation, a charity founded by Dangerbird Records head Jeff Castelaz, whose son Pablo succumbed to cancer the following year. Funds raised for the Pablove Foundation directly supports the pediatric cancer community in and around Children's Hospital Los Angeles.^[123] Manson reformed Garbage to contribute an exclusive track, "Witness to Your Love", to a charity album for the Foundation;^[124] signed off a Pablove poster for auction on eBay;^[123] Manson also hosted a fundraiser headlined by the Silversun Pickups,^[125] and performed acoustically on-stage at a second fundraiser with Butch Vig and Tom Gabel (for a rendition of "Witness"...) and with Greg Kurstin (for a cover of Pablo's favourite song, David Bowie's "Life on Mars?").^[126]

In 2009, Manson made her first venture into the videogame industry by becoming digitally mapped to create an avatar of herself for the Guitar Hero franchise. In the fifth game in the series, Manson is an unlockable character, while the game also features a licensed Garbage track.^[127]

In 2010, Shirley Manson donated two hand decorated t-shirts to Binki Shapiro’s (of the band “Little Joy”) on-line charity auction “Crafts for a Cause” to help raise money for the earthquake victims of Haiti.
