Garbage And Radiohead On Charity CD

A new, previously unreleased, Garbage track titled Witness to Your Love features on the new charity compilation Give Listen Help. The two-disc release also contains remixes, covers and previously unreleased tracks from 25 other bands. The bands that jump-off the liner notes for me are Radiohead, Of Montreal, Silversun Pickups and The Dears.


Give Listen Help is being sold exclusively in the US through Urban Outfitters.

A large percentage of the proceeds ($13.88 of every $14.99!) from the sale of each disc will be donated to the PABLOVE Foundation, a group formed by Jeff Castelaz, LA-based cofounder of Dangerbird Records, to help the Children's Hosital of Los Angeles (where Jeff's son is undergoing treatment for a rare form of cancer).


If your looking to buy a CD for someone for Chrimbo then I'd recommend this over Chinese Democracy without hesitation. At least the money is going to a decent cause too, instead of lining Axl Rose's pockets.
