𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐲𝐚 𝐋𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚: Hi Mads, nice to meet you online  New photographs of Placebo are amazing. Did you have the concept about this photo shoot in advance or did you take part in creating it with the band/management?
𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐬 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐡: I was planning the art work in advance with Art director Phil Lee at Untold Studios who commissioned me for the job. I had been working with shooting through distorted plastic sheets before so it felt like a great opportunity to use a previously explored concept in a new way with a great band!

𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐲𝐚 𝐋𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚: Like a band with a rich and long history, Placebo have had a lot of different photo shoots and images. How did you want to show them now? What was the most important thing for you?
𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐬 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐡: I guess the most important thing for me was to photograph them in a new and interesting way. My work is often based around creating more conceptual images made using in camera techniques, and it was great to work with Brian and Stefan who were really into the concept which Phil and I had planned prior to the shoot.

𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐲𝐚 𝐋𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚: I have noticed that you have used some creative techniques for your photographs. There is some magic in them. The picture of Placebo for Beautiful James looks fantastic. Was that your idea to use this technique?
𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐬 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐡: Thank you! Phil, the art director, saw some work I had done with textured glass before and thought it would be a great fit for the band. So that is really how it all started. The concept was presented to the band and the guys were really into the idea. We spent a whole day in a studio and did a lot of experimentation with different glass, and textures, and colours – all created in a camera. It was a great shoot day and we got a lot of strong images out of it.

𝐀𝐧𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐲𝐚 𝐋𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐯𝐚: What can you say about working with Placebo for this photo shoot? What was the most interesting in your mutual work with the band?
𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐬 𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐡: The guys were great, one of the nicest bands I worked with! They loved the concept and gave Phil and me plenty of time to experiment and get what we wanted. I am hoping to be able to share some more images from the shoot soon!
