Strange Little Birds was released last Friday, June 10, via the band's own STUNVOLUME Records.

Working initially in Vig's basement and then at Red Razor Sounds in Los Angeles, Garbage drew on a variety of sources for Strange Little Birds, from their recent fan letters back to the albums they loved growing up. Some will hear echoes of Garbage's 1995 debut album in Strange Little Birds.

Next month, Garbage will embark on their 'Strange Little Birds' U.S. tour in support of the new album. The dates will kick off on July 6th at Summerfest in Milwaukee and follow a run of European dates. Tickets are now available for purchase.

"Their darkest, most intimate LP and the band's strongest effort in 15 years." 

Pitchfork

"The electronic rockers return with a sixth studio album as cool and caustic as their 1995 debut." NME

"In 2016, Garbage are a bloody triumph." Consequence of Sound

"20-plus years after forming, each band member is still fired up to mine new sounds and approaches for inspiration. That willingness to be uncomfortable and look beneath the surface makes Strange Little Birds a rousing success." A.V. Club
