Two new albums: Garbage and Jamiroquai

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Garbage has a new album for those interested, entitled "beautifulgarbage" and Jamiroquai is setting down some master disco-esque beats with their new "Funk Odyssey."
When I first listened to the new Garbage album I really didn't like it too much. I felt like it lacked something their older stuff had, but after a few more listens, I think I'm beginning to enjoy it somewhat. For those of you that dislike messing with buying albums, here's a few you can search for on Morpheus:
<i>Beautiful, Cup of Coffee, Nobody Loves You, Parade, So Like A Rose, Untouchable</i>
I realize that <i>Androgyny</i> has been the track getting the most publicity on that album (mostly because of its pre-release, meaning it was probably all anyone had heard), but I personally hate the damn thing. It has this real pop quality that I can't stand.
This is hardly Garbage's best work (although <i>Untouchable</i> and <i>Beautiful</i> can possibly rank), but seeing as how I've been kind of aching for a new fix of their music, I'm willing to take it and listen to it until my ears bleed.
Jamiroquai was never really a group I listened to much before. <i>Virtual Insanity</i> and <i>Cosmic Girl</i> grabbed my attention due to funky beats, but I was too afraid of the gay sound to warrant really checking them out. After "A Funk Odyssey" I can safely say that this music still holds highest appeal for girls, but fuck it, I'll put some headphones on and maybe no one will notice me doing my little techno dance in my desk chair, here. Songs to check out:
<i>Little L, Main Vein, You Give Me Something</i>
If nothing else you can download it and laugh at the disco sounds.
