since we have a lot of new fans on our page and I think that some people know Placebo only thanks to the new album, I would like to introduce them to a little treasure from 2012 that is not talked about much.
Today's post I want to dedicate an album that will celebrate its tenth anniversary in October.

This album is one of my favorites. It contains only 5 tracks, but each is like a small diamond. So let's talk about them today.

Brian's words may sound a bit melancholy, but the recording of this single eventually caused the creative energy of the band and not only the entire B3 EP, but also the release of the seventh studio album Loud Like Love the following year.

Most of us heard this raw punk song for the first time. Surprisingly, however, this is a cover version of a British indie band from the 90's - ๐Ÿ”ธ๐Œ๐ˆ๐๐—๐”๐’.
The band released only one album - Pabulum in 1995 and then disbanded. We can only speculate as to why this song stuck in Brian's memory for so long that he decided to revive it after 17 years.
What is certain is that the band Minxus once played live with the band ๐Ÿ”ธ๐€๐‚ ๐€๐‚๐Ž๐”๐’๐“๐ˆ๐‚๐’, whose frontman ๐๐š๐ฎ๐ฅ ๐‚๐š๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ข๐จ๐ง is Brian's close friend. Therefore, this could lead to a friendly and creative connection of all three bands.


This song was even played 4 times live - during the B3 Tour in 2012.

Anyway, the song "๐ˆ. ๐Š. ๐–. ๐‹.". is also unique in its graduating musical energy, noisy guitars sign the Placebo style more than many of their other songs. Finally, we can hear Stefan's great-sounding vocals here, which we don't enjoy much in other songs.

⭐๐Ÿ“* "๐“๐ˆ๐Œ๐„ ๐ˆ๐’ ๐Œ๐Ž๐๐„๐˜"
A seven-minute track that was also never played live, although many fans would enjoy it.
Unfortunately, no further information can be found about this song, which could be a perfect lullaby. But a brutally honest text kills all romance.

I hope I didn't put you in a state of despair, because that was definitely not my goal.
My post today was about what we love most about Placebo - sincerity, seeing a world without pink glasses, painful topics that need to be discussed and not closed behind the door and thought that nothing is happening.
Because then we are surprised when a war rages "suddenly" in a neighboring country ... and its consequences affect us all ...
