Garbage Video, also known as Home Video was a 1996 short-form VHS and Video CD release that included all of Garbage's promotional music videos filmed up until that point. Garbage Video was produced by Oil Factory and Propaganda Films. [1]

Garbage Video was the last major release to promote parent album Garbage and was issued by Almo Sights & Sounds/Geffen in North America and by Mushroom Records worldwide. Unlike a number of other music video compilations, Garbage Video has never been re-issued on the DVD format. It was superseded by the 2007 DVD release of Absolute Garbage. [2]

[edit] Video release

Garbage Video includes footage shot at the band's March 21, 1996, headline concert at Glasgow's Barrowland Ballroom, and outtakes from the shoots for the videos for "Only Happy When It Rains", "Queer" and "Stupid Girl" which are over-dubbed with a remix soundtrack by Rabbit in the Moon, Danny Saber and Red Snapper. [3] The video also includes a mini-clip for b-side "Sleep" shot by Garbage in Smart Studios in Madison, WI, Wisconsin. [4]

Garbage intended the video release to show their "very strong visual identity", while stressing that their definite film piece would follow the next year, pushing "very hard at the conventional barriers associated with band video/short film-making". [3]
