The Word From Garbage

Alt-rock veterans Garbage have confirmed the much-anticipated return to Australia and New Zealand, announcing four theatre shows in December 2025 in Auckland, Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney. These dates mark the band's first headline tour in Australia since 2016, and their first appearance in New Zealand's main centres in over a decade.

Good Things Festival has added one of the most unexpected names to its already powerhouse 2025 line-up. Viral teen metalcore sensation Maple's Pet Dinosaur.

When Garbage released their self-titled debut album in August 1995, the alternative rock landscape was already shifting. Grunge was waning, Britpop was peaking in the UK, and electronic music was beginning to infiltrate rock’s DNA. Into this transitional moment stepped Garbage, a genre-blurring project that fused rock guitars, trip-hop beats, industrial noise, and pop hooks into something sleek yet menacing.

Good Things is back for 2025 with Tool, Weezer and Garbage leading the 2025 line-up.

Garbage have released their eighth album ‘Let All That We Imagine Be The Light’ with an Octopus in the visuals as a nod to number 8.

Garbage have a new song ‘There’s No Future In Optimism’ and a brand new album on the way.
