ok it works now i'm disappointed..
I don't like the cosmogirl design, I know it's surely a lot of hard work but it doesn't seem so, I don't want to offense anyone, I just express an opinion. The 'garbage picks' section is nice, but there's WAY too much things in it. You can't picture Garbage's universe through so many references. The old list, even if it was out of date, contained much less things in it and it was easier for people who didn't know the band (as well as for the people who knew them) to get a quick idea about their world and their inspirations. It's hard to have an idea of their musical inspiration when you see 50 cent quoted along with björk and marilyn manson and about 70 other random references.

Nothing special. Design is .... nice BUT it's ain't friendly. Small frame with text-content is not very usable Everything is old. Hope new updates will be such a real! Cuz there were a LOT of talks about some overwhelming site.... Just a plenty of talks with a small result And if there will be a rate-poll of 5 points I'd rate it 2. sadly the site is a victim of delay, and hype by other fans... we never claimed this site would be anything other than a stop gap... but it took soooooo long. That, unfortunatly, was out of our hands. But work hasn't stopped... There are plans for lots of new content over the next month. Also, work is begining soon (I hope!) on the album site, which is very exciting! In the mean time, you can always wait for the big new version of subhuman.net, which is due before the end of the month Die hard fans? Us?

Dont worry about offending us... this was supposed to be a small site that was released quickly... only one of those two things happened! Maybe we can do something about that. Tell me what you'd like to see? We're doing a content update in a few days.

I like it a lot It's very fun I was hoping it wasn't going to be all dark and goth, that would suck, and I think it would misrepresent the band (it's not 1995 people).
I love the layout and I LOVE the Band Picks!!! Don't change those at all! I printed the whole thing out. I will never have to wonder what movies to rent again!!!! It's awesome for them to do that for us. ;D

Maybe we can do something about that. Tell me what you'd like to see? We're doing a content update in a few days. It's just the 'band picks' section that bothers me. Those lists could be everyone's.. Maybe only recent releases should appear there. I mean.. what's the point in mentionning The Beatles or The Clash or other classic bands? They are obviously a source of inspiration for ALL modern bands. With such a long list you can't picture Garbage's specific universe. It's the same for books.. everyone read 1984 or Wuthering Heights or know what it's about and thus don't really tell us more about the band. BUT books like JT Leroy's and other recent works are of course the most relevant of the list. Do you see what I mean ?
