Garbage back to gloomy self

Garbage star Shirley Manson has reverted to being a melancholic personality again – in a bid to rescue her band’s sound.
The “I’m Only Happy When It Rains” singer believes the bands next effort – due for release later this year – will be more like their early, darker work, rather than the happy pop sound of the last album “Beautifulgarbage.”
She says, “I think this one is going to be different. Beautifulgarbage was by far the lightest sounding, most unashamed pop album of our career. Because we were all going through such dark times in our lives at that point we deliberately strove to make some uplifting music to take our minds off of it.
“It gave us our most critically acclaimed album of our career, but the process to get there was a horrible one and I wouldn’t want to repeat it. Hopefully we can now go back to embracing the doom and gloom we’ve always loved in our music.”
