‘Bleed Like Me’: Stuff magazine album of the month

Stuff Magazine has reviewed ‘Bleed Like Me’ and given it 5 stars. Highest rating possible. They named it Album of the Month:
“Garbage front woman Shirley Manson must have plowed through a lot of personal trash in the past three years, judging from the tone of “Bleed Like Me”, the band’s new album. Either that, or she’s to caught up in The OC. That s**t is an emotional roller coaster! But Shirley is a survivor. So instead of folding under an assault of unfaithful lovers, personal abuse and insecurity, she picked herself up by the garter belt.
Bleed like me is the bands heaviest and most hedonistic offering. The’ve ditched the electronics in favor of a more straightforward aural attack. But while songs such as Bad Boyfriend, which features Dave Grohl on drums, and the salacious “Sex Is Not The Enemy” exhibit a clear desire to rock out. Garbage can still get gooey, as on the piano and feedback saturated “It’s All Over But The Crying and “Bleed Like Me”, a touching ode to anorexics, masochists, and drunks. (Shirley is obviously a huge fan of the Americna Idol judges.)” – Jon Wiederhorn
