>Members Butch Vig, Steve Marker and Duke Erikson made remixes for major artists including: U2, Beck, House of Pain, Alanis Morissette and Nine Inch Nails. They were trying to think of a name for their new band when a friend walked in during a remix session to see tape loops all over the mixing board and noises come out of the speakers. The friend said, "This shit sounds like Garbage!" They had their name.
Garbage is actually an awesome band.
