Garbage are currently on the road with Blondie as part of the Rage and Rapture tour in North America. So far they've been opening their set each night with a timely new track titled "No Horses." Shirley Manson describes the song as:
"...a dream fueled anxiety attack. A dark imagining of the future in which a presiding regime values only profit and success leaving no room for tiny beautiful things, small gestures and great beasts."
Today Garbage released the studio version of "No Horses" today as a digital single with profits being donated to the International Committee of the Red Cross. Download the single on iTunes or Amazon and stream it below:
Meanwhile Shirley Manson was recently asked by W to describe her relationship with the legendary Debbie Harry. Check out her glowing comments below and read the full interview here.
"I would prefer to describe my relationship with Debbie Harry because it is who she is as a woman that has had the greatest impact on me. It is the fact that she is 72 years old and was just featured on the cover of Nylon magazine which is read primarily by young women.
It’s the fact that she just released a record in the so-called twilight of her life, let alone her career, to critical acclaim. It is the fact that she still walks and talks with great authority. It is the fact that she still has a thrust and thrill about her.
It is all these things and more that I admire about her and am grateful for. She is a marvelous beacon, and not just for me or for women in music, but for all women all over the world who fear they have lost their agency because they have earned themselves a wrinkle and passed the age of 25."
