It's time to share with you a ๐ท๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ that I found and that I don't remember having read before. It was published on the ๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐ site ๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐๐๐ on the same day their seventh album "๐ณ๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐ ๐ณ๐๐๐" was released (September 16, 2013); and although it is a short interview, it has a mix of emotions because it starts a bit tense, but it also has a funny and a reflective part. Enjoy reading!

๐ข๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: It took us a while to find the right energy, the right way of working. It took a lot of questioning to figure out that we had to stop questioning.

๐ข(๐๐๐๐๐๐๐, ๐ก๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ข๐๐๐ก๐๐) ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: Well, we won't go into that. There were ups and downs between us. Then we put it all together and moved on.

๐ข(๐๐๐ค ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐) ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: There are open couples where the spouses keep their infidelities to themselves, out of respect for the other...
๐๐๐ฌ. ๐๐ง๐?
๐ข๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: I don't know what I was getting at. Anyway, you can't compare Placebo to a couple. We're more like a family. We love each other, we hate each other. We can't stand each other but we know each other so well that being together is also very comfortable at times, and very strong at others.

๐ข๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: We are a blended family, a modern family.
๐ข๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐๐: Don't say I'm the kid, please.
๐ข๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: And we have a rebellious teenager.
๐ข๐บ๐๐๐๐ ๐ญ๐๐๐๐๐๐: I hate you.

๐ข๐บ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐๐๐ ๐๐: France is a country where we have always been well received, maybe because Brian speaks French fluently. I think that the French are less attached to pop fashions than the English. As we have always been against the current...
๐ฐ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐, ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐.
๐ข๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: In spite of us.
๐ข๐บ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐๐๐ ๐๐: We were younger and we didn't pay attention to fashion, we made the music that inspired us at the time and we were the fruits of that time. It was all natural.

๐ข๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: We listen to what's going on, we see the trends, like everyone else. But it doesn't affect our music. If we tried to follow the trend on this album, it would have sounded like an album from 2010... Because we are quite slow.
๐ข๐บ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ถ๐๐๐ ๐๐: Brian doesn't want to imply that we are old, mind you.

๐ข๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: Maybe there was a time when we were a bit more wild. Now we're pretty wise, that's true. But I don't think our music is.

๐ข๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ ๐ด๐๐๐๐: Yes, in an incredibly original way, we are inspired by love's trying feelings. Fingers crossed that love will still be in fashion in 2013.
