BAND TO PERFORM AT KROQ WEENIE ROAST ON MAY 5TH
|
Garbage today announced that the music video for the
group's new single "Blood For Poppies" will premiere tomorrow, April 3rd
on AOL Music. "Blood For Poppies" is the first single from the
band's highly anticipated album Not Your Kind Of People, which is
due out on May 15th on the band's own STUNVOLUME record label.
On Tuesday, April 3rd at 1:00pm PST, Garbage will
participate in a live Ustream chat where the band will answer questions
from fans about the video and forthcoming new album, followed by the world
premiere of the video live from Los Angeles.
The "Blood For Poppies" music video was shot in
Los Angeles and directed by renowned fashion photographer and filmmaker Matt
Irwin and inspired by visual artists like Magritte, Maya Deren, Luis Brunel
and Francesca Woodman. "We piled into a transit van with the
ridiculously talented team of Matt Irwin and Aaron Brown and hopped
around little pockets of Los Angeles creating a gorgeous surrealist dream. We
ate ice cream sandwiches in the sunshine and laughed a lot. I didn't want the
shoot to end," said the band's Shirley Manson.
Not Your Kind Of People will be released in
both a standard and a deluxe configuration. Fans can preorder either
version here: Standard Edition Preorder and Deluxe Edition Preorder (featuring four additional
tracks). On April 21st for Record Store Day, Garbage will release
"Blood For Poppies" on a limited edition, white vinyl 7-inch that
will feature the track and an exclusive remix by drummer Butch Vig.
Garbage will hit the road this spring in support of the
album by performing several headlining shows in the United States as well as
various festivals throughout Europe with more dates to be announced over the
coming weeks. In addition, the group will perform at the recently announced
KROQ Weenie Roast on May 5th in Los Angeles. Full list of dates can be found

ABOUT GARBAGE
After forming in Madison, WI, Garbage released their
self-titled debut album in 1995 and rode a wave of visually arresting,
female-fronted alternative rock bands. The album spawned the hit
singles "Stupid Girl" and "Only Happy When It Rains" and
was certified double platinum in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the
United States. The band won the Breakthrough Artist Award at the
1996 MTV Europe Music Awards, and was nominated for the Best New Artist
Grammy® Award. Their second album, Version 2.0, was released
in 1998 and topped the charts in the United Kingdom. It was
nominated for two Grammy Awards including Album of the Year and Best Rock
Album. 2001's Beautiful Garbage was named one
of Rolling Stone Magazine's Top 10 Albums Of The
Year. In 2005, Garbage released Bleed Like Me, earning
the band its highest chart position with a No. 4 on the Billboard Top 200
Album Chart. In 2007, the band released a retrospective collection
called Absolute Garbage. Garbage has sold over 12 million albums
worldwide. They have performed in over thirty-five countries and will tour
extensively worldwide in support of this new release.
