Some bands see an evolution in their sound, while others change it completely. Unfortunately, this represents the latter for Garbage. Instead of building off of V2.0, they came back with something that is so scattered, it's hard to listen to all the way through. I'm sure most fans would agree that while we didn't want V3.0, we didn't want this either. Pretty disappointing considering how spectacular the last album was from start to finish. I will say that the album has grown on me after repeated listenings, but only slightly. Don't pay full price if you want to buy this album. Look for it used, or on sale.
