Here's the band's new video for the song Summer of Discontent from the An Unpleasant Number album. For those (probably in the UK) who remember Ernie Wise banging out scripts over breakfast - welcome to my typical day as I (Unchained) hit the ground running.
Old Garbo released their debut CD Walking on all Flaws in September 2004.
“This mostly low-key release runs very much in the vein of Elliott Smith, Jeff Buckley or Elbow, leaving behind the pop idiom and moving into a place altogether darker.” BBC WALES MUSIC
“The sounds of darkness and damaged relationships permeate almost every song, which sometimes recall the dynamics and drama of both Muse and Radiohead.” BUZZ
The band also have made a video to the song Like Nothing from the Walking on all Flaws album. It involves the use of shaving cream, a razor, a pair of scissors, foundation and some home-made lipstick.

No one was hurt during the filming - only someone's pride (and joy).
Helu. I’ve just decided to give my song ‘Sunday’ away for free. Just click ‘download’ on my page, and it’s yours. Please pass it on to your brothers & sisters, anyone you love!
Hello angel saw the article on Old Garbo in the Venue, nice pic of you ya hansome devil :) I will have to get your new album soon. I have posted a blog thingy telling everyone about Old Garbo and told them to come see your page. Love Rosie X
loving the album russ! we've been listening in the car. great stuff!
by the way, if you've sent any messages recently i may not have recieved them. myspace is being a total pain at the moment. a few people have sent me messages that i haven't received and some people haven't received messages that i've sent.
it seems that if i spend more than around 15 minutes composing an email then when i click 'send' it doesn't reach the person. i've had to start copying and pasting into a notepad document so i have a backup, then checking my sent folder to see if it's worked....
hows it going. We have a new webpage called
http://www.therainpage.com
We play in Berlin on 19th of May.
And you can buy our new Album "Involver"
on iTunes, Amazon and at your local UK-recordstore.
russ, your album rocks. been listening non stop for the last few days. my wife loves it too. her favourites are 'under the influence' and 'like nothing'.
