....? i can’t believe that there is a band which makes me feel so strange and good... their latest alubm [relased on march 24 :)] simply kicks ass from the very begining to the end..... i became addicted to placebo, have downlaoded all their albums [4] and some live performances...

if you don’t know them: it’s something like mix of powerpop, britpop, postpunk, trance, it’s unbelievable that you cannot group their music!

try these songs [you’ll become addicted as well as me :P] :

bulletproof cupid - great rocker from new album [instrumental]
sleeping with ghosts - great ballad from new album

nancy boy, bruise pristine, lady of the flowers, pure morning, every you every me, special k, 20th century boy - some old stuff

enjoy ! :))

–
jack - in love with placebo!

I don’t know placebo, but I know what a “placebo” is :D

vaxjoe said on March 19, 2003 19:21:

YAY i just watched their new video “The bitter end” great video, great song and Brian Molko looks so much better with short hair!

Santi: u will love placebo once u know them :p

Oh...I didn’t think there were any Placebo fans here... I could probably write a book about how much and why I love them, but i’m not gonna bore you. Anyway, has anyone been at Wembley in November?
And I can’t believe Brian made me like mullets, I loved his long girly hair but then I’d love anything on him, he’s (they’re) unbelievable.
(Oh and by the way, the bassist, Stefan is the Swede =).

Jackeill said on December 3, 2004 23:29:

oh nancy girl, you could write a book about how you love them, and you don’t know that brian is balding? that’s why he has short hair...

whatever. check this link out http://jackeill.test.averne.org/bri.jpg

nancy_girl said on December 4, 2004 01:19:

Aw, come on, that’s cute! Anyone can see he’s slowly going bald, and so is Stef! They’re probably very jealous of Steve =). But the mullet looks pretty fit on him, doesn’t it? And anyway, i don’t give a **** about their hair as long as they’re together.
