PLACEBO

In the organizer's words:

In 1996, at the height of Britpop, this band was a disruptive noise. While beer, nation and nostalgia were being celebrated elsewhere, Brian Molko was singing about androgyny, addiction and alienation. It was music like an open secret: vulnerable, provocative, radically honest. Songs like "Nancy Boy" or "36 Degrees" were not hits in the classic sense, but statements. Sharp-edged, uncomfortable, necessary. 🔥

With Placebo "RE:CREATED", this debut is not simply being reissued, but re-read. More of a director's cut than a remaster. The band has opened up the old master tapes and added something that cannot be produced in the studio: three decades of live experience. Because these songs have changed on stage, night after night, city after city. They have grown, become more raw, sometimes more tender. Live has always been the place where Placebo perfected themselves. 🤘
