About this album

WM UK (1998) Released: 12 May 1998 12 tracks (49:19)
Version 2.0 is the second album by alternative rock group Garbage. It was released in worldwide in May 1998 and was the follow up to the band’s multi-platinum debut album Garbage. Despite a slow start, Version 2.0 went on to equal its predecessor, becoming platinum-certified in many territories.

Like their first record, Garbage promoted Version 2.0 with a year-long tour, and by releasing a string of hit singles backed with boundary-pushing promotional videos. In 1999, Version 2. 0 was nominated for Grammy Awards for Album of the Year and Best Rock Album, and its third single Special was further nominated the following year for Best Rock Song and for Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group.

Building on framework sound and style Garbage established on their debut set, Version 2.0 featured musical references to the sixties, seventies and eighties, songs featuring live strings, over 100 recorded tracks and interpolations of both the Beach Boys and The Pretenders. The band claimed that the goal of Version 2.0 was to create a rapprochement between the “high-tech and low-down, the now sound and of golden memories”.

    All of these big giant descriptions when all you have to say is "perfect" or "flawless". Meh, I'll join. My dad got me this album for Christmas when I was 16 or so. 8 years later I don't listen to much music from back then, but I listen to this album A LOT. I am almost to the point where I can't sleep at night without listening to the Trick is to Keep Breathing.

    I am more proud to have beautifulgarbage! maybe it is not catchy like this one and succes flopped but it is way better and experimental then this one is

    It's definitely one of the definitive albums of the 90s - basically flawless from start to end. I truly believe it is a near perfect album, and there is not one song I could even begin to consider filler. In some respects I think Garbage squandered their full potential after this album, because they seemed to distrust the sound they had created. I think this is one of the records that people will revisit in the next ten years and give it the credit its worthy of. I'm proud to own this album.

    I'm listening it and I didn't from time ago......one of the best 90s alternative album......excellent album but I'm glad they didn't make some kind of version 3.0 (even it would be so much better than beutifulgarbage).....
