I can’t believe it’s been over six years since the last studio album from Garbage! In a lot of ways, “Why Do You Love Me?,” the lead track from Bleed Like Me, epitomizes exactly what I love about them — and why they’re one of my favorite bands of all time.
A fierce, scorch-the-paint-off-the-walls intensity permeates all their music. When I listen to songs like this one, I think to myself, “This is what rock music is all about.”
They’re phenomenal musicians, and lead singer Shirley Manson is right up there with Debbie Harry, Stevie Nicks, Chrissie Hynde and the Wilson sisters in my book.
