Garbage - The Men Who Rule The World 

 

 

Garbage frontwoman Shirley Manson said of the album: 

 

“This is our seventh record, the significant numerology of which affected the DNA of its content: the seven virtues, the seven sorrows, and the seven deadly sins.  It was our way of trying to make sense of how fucking nuts the world is and the astounding chaos we find ourselves in. It’s the record we felt that we had to make at this time.”

 

The album is the band's first LP since 2016’s Strange Little Birds.
