๐ธ To promote the release of Loud Like Love, ๐ฉ๐๐๐๐ was the guest of ๐ท๐๐๐ ๐ญ๐ด, a Belgian radio station, on the September 16th, 2013.
An interesting interview where Brian speaks warmly about his youth, his views on his younger self, Placebo's aesthetics, songs meaning, the writing process. ๐
Enjoy this intimate and smooth moment ๐

๐ข Yes, maybe, but at the same time we don't know what to do, that's the problem. It's more and more difficult to renew first, and we're always afraid of repeating ourselves. Some repetitions are inevitable because we have our own style. For me, when I have the tune, in front of this blank sheet, I always have this kind of panic in me. I tell myself 'what do I have to say ? What do I have to tell the world ?' I am not the kind of person who writes thing in an intellectual way. I let myself go with instinct. It's rather the writing process which influences the topics, the emotions of the song. It's more and more difficult maybe because I put more and more value in it.
๐๐๐ฎ ?
๐ข Because I'm a bit more conscious of the fact that ... Well.. let's say I less believe in my own legend. When you are young, you're very arrogant, you are strongly self confident. With time, it erodes a bit. You ask yourself more questions and you get more of an identity crisis. For me, it becomes another value, a bigger one. I may be too conscious about the missed opportunities in the past. So I push myself more... I am very critical, self critical of things I would have let go before, I fnd it harder these days. So, I have this process of writing, and re-writing, and re-writing. And it often ends at the last moment when you have to finish the album. 'You don't have no more time Brian so write something'. Sometimes a deadline can help.

๐ข Because of this arrogance and this huge self-confidence, I thought when I was younger, that everything I wrote was a masterpiece Now, with hindsight , I realize it's not a fact. I often said to myself I should have been a bit more conscious, less in the clouds and I should have been a bit more careful.

๐ข Yeah exactly. As I can't no longer act this way anymore.. It's a period of my life completely unceasing, quite mad, bohemian-like. Yeah, I look at it with a kind of nostalgia, but I feel more comfortable in my skin these days, more at ease than before. I don't feel like paying the price of all this anymore.

๐ข No, toward my everyday life. I feel less lost today. But there's something really attractive about this bohemian past. That's why I'm using the word 'nostalgia', because we're aware it's past life. With hindsight, you look through erose glasses.

๐ข Well, no... No, I haven't thought about that until now. It's the same with 'Rob The Bank' on the new album. After the recording, someone told me : 'It reminds me of ‘Follow The Cops Back Home and rob their houses' . I told myself : 'Oh damn, I haven't thought about that'. 'A Million Little Pieces', 'We Come In Pieces', It's not a conscious connection I've made. I have stolen this title from a book by an American writer, James Frey, who wrote a sort of fictionalized essay about his life, about his huge addiction issues. Our song is quite abstract but I wanted to make this connection with this book in order to people, after they listen to this song 'A Million Little Pieces', go and read that book and open their mind and could give context to the song.

๐ข Now, we can be more transgressive, we can go further. Maybe it has come back with a very human side, especially on that album. Rather than doing a crime against society, it is rather concentrated on an emotional crime you can do towards somebody.. on that album.

๐ข Yes, I hope so. We really wanted this album to be vulnerable, a very human album sonically speaking. Even though we've used lots of electronic instruments on that album, we've used piano a lot and also Indian instruments like dulcimer for example, lots of chords. For me... Yeah, after 'Battle For The Sun', which was a strong guitar album, kind of a guitar wall, I wanted to do something more delicate, more melancholic, with a human side. A sort of melancholy which makes you proud of the fact you can still feel this melancholy. A sort of happy sadness. This is the kind of music, since I've discovered artists like Leonard Cohen who has moved me throughout my life. Songs that make me cry but still make me happy that I am an emotional being and can cry this way.

๐ข It's very interesting because it's the first album where we have used our phones, our ipad as instruments in the studio. There was this kind of childish joy because you can find something on the app store, it takes one minute to get it and you can begin playing. Because of the interface, it gives a childish joy because it's like a toy. It has become something really important on this album, and there's also this hyper human essence of the hands clapping. It gives you an idea of the scope of the sound and instrumentation we wanted to use in the sound of Placebo for this album. Yeah, a sort of democratic posture towards everything. A sort of open-mindedness too.

๐ข It's important to be surrounded by people who are much younger than you are and who understand the whole thing much better than you do and who know how to use the social networks, etc etc. It makes everyday life quite easier in the creation process. You can make a song at home and send it to someone. You spend less time in the studio, getting bored. The producer can send you mixes, things to listen to. It's important to stress because all this technology won't write a song for you. You always need the human touch to give soul to something. Even when you're using an ipad, it's the human touch which controls everything. With this tool, it's rather the accident which is magical. The fact it's brand new, you don't really know how to use it, we often use it the bad way and through these accidents, you can create something magical.

๐ข Aesthetically speaking, I wanted to stop with the Placebo aesthetic which was well established, a physical aesthetic, very figurative and quite monochrome. My first musical crush was psychedelic music. I wanted to do something with all the covers. Something quite psychedelic and use the 60's, the 70's, the 80's and the 90's altogether with all the formats, etc. These pictures are quite psychedelic as if it was seen through an old tv set or so. A sort of junk store aesthetic. Yeah, raising the junk store aesthetic to some work of art essentially.

๐ข It means 'forrest' in Italian. Stefan began playing this song on the piano. He gave this name to the melody. After that, I wrote the lyrics. We couldn't find a better title. So, why not. It's quite abstract. There's a sort of mystery with it. It could be interpreted in hundreds of ways. We like this ambiguity, We like this mystery so we decided to keep it.

๐ข Not yet. No, no. It's a deceptive song. It's not a song which deals with the financial crisis, it's about obsession and jealousy.A sort of carnal obsession you can feel for someone, for a human being. It's aslo a list of crimes, of repulsive things. The person in this song is saying : "You know, you can do whatever you want, you can have hundreds of disgusting ways, I don't care as far as you come back home at the end of the day and satisfy me".
