'''''Version 2.0''''' is the second studio album by American [[Rock music|rock]] band [[Garbage (band)|Garbage]]. It was released on May 11, 1998, by [[Mushroom Records]] worldwide, with the North American release on [[Almo Sounds]] the following day. With this album, the band aimed to improve and expand upon the style of their [[Garbage (album)|1995 eponymous debut]] rather than reinventing their sound. Lead singer [[Shirley Manson]] wrote dark, introspective lyrics, which she felt complemented the songs' melodies.

''Version 2.0'' was a commercial success, topping the charts in the United Kingdom, France, and New Zealand, and earning platinum certifications in several countries. The album has sold 1.7 million copies in the United States and four million copies worldwide. Garbage embarked on an 18-month-long [[#World Tour|world tour]], and released a string of commercially successful singles backed with innovative [[music video]]s.<ref>{{cite magazine |last=Nika |first=Colleen |url=https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/the-darkling-manifesto-shirley-mansons-individualist-style-legacy-179753/ |title=The Darkling Manifesto: Shirley Manson's Individualist Style Legacy |magazine=[[Rolling Stone]] |date=July 31, 2012 |access-date=January 29, 2019}}</ref> ''Version 2.0'' received generally positive reviews from critics, and was included on year-end lists of 1998's best albums by several publications.
