The Debut Album of the Garbage

The Garbage is a rock alternative band from the United States. It was formed in 1994 and released five studio albums. The debut album of the Garbage is of the same name “Garbage”. It was released in 1995.
I was writing book report on history when the album was broadcasted on the radio. I liked only several tracks of it: the Queer, A Stroke of Luck, and Milk. Maybe, I did not like the album because I was not fond of its genre, alternative rock. I liked the voice of the soloist, Shirley Manson the most. It is quite clear, strong, and unique. Nevertheless, the album became very successful: it was nominated by the Grammy Awards for the Best Rock Song of the years. Moreover, it was certified gold in 1996.
The theme of the album is not homogeneous: different things were sung about in the Garbage. For example, as it is mentioned in lots of research essay papers on the Garbage, the article about the sado-masochistic couple became the basis for the track Vow.
I do not know why the album sounded so polished: maybe, the producer of the Garbage wanted to make a perfect piece of music without any notch, or maybe, such techniques were used in 90s. Frankly speaking, when I was listening to the album had a feeling that the producer did all he could in order to make the Garbage one of the most successful project of the year.
