Garbage is the debut studio album by rock band Garbage. It was released on August 15, 1995, following critical acclaim and promising chart positions for their debut single "Vow", which reached number 97 on the Billboard Hot 100.
Garbage eventually spent over a year on both the US and UK charts, reaching the top 20 on charts worldwide and receiving multi-platinum certifications in numerous territories. The album's success was helped by the band promoting it on a year-long tour, including playing on the European festival circuit and supporting the Smashing Pumpkins throughout 1996, as well as by a run of increasingly successful singles culminating with "Stupid Girl", which received Grammy Award nominations for Best Rock Song and Best Rock Performance by a Duo or Group in 1997. Garbage was released to critical acclaim and was viewed by some journalists as an innovative recording for its time.
