I meant to post but my email was messed up. Anyways, I have "borrowed" this from NME online: Garbage have won an injunction stopping the sale of a new CD called 'Garbage', which the band claim has nothing to do with them. The 30-minute CD contains interviews with some of the group carried out by a fanzine reporter, but Garbage claim the way it has been produced gives the impression it is a new record. On January 24, High Court judge Mr Justice Jacob banned further production or sale of the CD pending a full hearing in the High Court or until any further court orders are made. Garbage solicitor Derek Cockle said afterwards that the CD, which features a picture of singer Shirley Manson on its cover, was not sanctioned by the group. He said because of its appearance it could be wrongly taken by fans to be a bona fide record. The band have launched legal proceedings against the CD's producers, Wax Records of Chelmsford, accusing it of infringement of the group's name, which is a registered trademark. No-one at Wax Records could be contacted for a comment as its telephone number was out of service as NME went to press. There you go. Many people still don't know the posting address of this list.
