๐บ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐๐๐ ๐๐: No matter how insignificant we may feel in this world, we still shouldn’t give up. According to Darwin, we are just machines for survival, but if we agree with this, we are just going to kill each other. I will say a trivial thing: every man in his position should make this world better, that's all. Throughout our career Brian has affected political themes, but now it’s a time to speak in a full voice. We don’t want to become a "new U2” or build publicity on this, we just try a mirror to the face of a society.

"Not so long ago, at the beginning of the new millenium, I used to frequent a small bar off the Champs-Elysรฉes called "Le Mathis". Early one morning, as the sun began to poke its pesky head over the horizon, and over several vodka-tonics, my friends Nelly, Juri J and I began to put the world to rights, as you do. Naturally the subject turned to the war in Iraq, which I had taken to the streets of London to protest against, and we all began to get angry. In his disarmingly heavy italian accent, Juri turned to me and said: "the world is run by clowns with trigger happy hands." A light went off in my head. The next morning as i sat on the Eurostar, nursing a hangover as heavy as a loaded gun, a wave of inspiration came over me, as it does, and I began to write, the lyrics to what was to become a song vomited themselves forward fully formed and remain unchanged to this day.
By the time I reached London, all that was missing was the music. A few months later, in a serendipitous twist of fate, my friend and German Superstar DJ Timo Maas got back in touch, asking if I would be interested in working on some lyrics and perhaps singing on his new album. I found the skelleted electronic tracks he had sent me quite exiting, and I would eventually end up guesting on three album tracks. One track, however, leaped out of the stereo at me and screamed "sing over me now!". I began to mumble the words I had written that day on the train and they seemed to fit perfectly. So enamoured was I by this happy accident that I contacted Timo immediately to say that I would gladly sing on his new album, but only if he would "donate" said piece of music to the Placebo cause. Thankfully he agreed and a song was born. Now, put your hands in ze air, mรผtterfuckers!"

In collaboration with ๐ซ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ and ๐จ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ช๐๐๐๐๐๐๐, ๐ท๐๐๐๐๐๐ released a short film to accompany the song "๐ป๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐ ๐ฏ๐๐๐ ๐". Directed and co-written by Swede ๐จ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ต๐๐๐๐๐๐, the film tells the story of a young clown ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐๐, who witnessed his human mother and clown father murdered by a band of thugs. After running away from that traumatic event, ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐๐๐ must choose between honoring the biracial memory of his parents or joining a clown rebellion and avenging their death. As if the plot wasn't dark and shocking enough, the shoot location took place at the ranch of criminal ๐ช๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐ in Los Angeles, California.
The film premiered on December 8th, 2010. That afternoon, clowns from all over London picked up several journalists who had previously received an email sent by a mysterious "๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐" and were taken to a secret location (the ๐จ๐๐๐๐ ๐ช๐๐๐๐๐) where they ate pizza as the film was screening. At the end, the clowns tied a USB stick around to their wrist and ordered them to go out and tell what they had seen. It is said that ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐, ๐บ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐๐๐ ๐๐ and ๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐๐ were also there. However, the attendees were so scared of being surrounded by those terrible armed clowns that they didn't notice.
