Garbage to reunite, start work on new album

Garbage have returned to the studio to start work on a new album, Rocklouder can reveal.

The transatlantic quartet took an indefinite hiatus after 2005 album 'Bleed Like Me'. Frontwoman Shirley Manson went on to persue an acting career, scoring a role in Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles, and was rumoured to be working on a solo album.

Manson confirmed the reunion on her Facebook page:

"Guess who I just spent a week in the studio with?" she wrote. "Would you be pleased if I said one of them was called Steve, one of them was called Duke and another was a Grammy winning producer?", alluding to her former bandmates Butch Vig, Steve Marker and Duke Erikson. Vig had recently expressed an interest in reuniting Garbage for a new album and potential tour.

The band shot to fame in 1995 with their self-titled debut album, which sold over 6 million copies worldwide. Butch Vig recently produced Green Day's '21st Century Breakdown' album, which won a Grammy this weekend.
