Placebo - Placebo
Gatefold, Reissue
- Description
- Tracklist
This 2019 reissue comes in a gatefold sleeve with nicely printed inner sleeve. Highly regarded pressing.
Placebo’s self-titled debut landed like a punch in 1996—raw, nervy, and unapologetically strange. A glam-informed alt-rock record laced with distortion, gender blur, and vulnerability, Placebo carved a space between Britpop’s smugness and grunge’s decay.
Brian Molko’s voice—equal parts sneer and ache—carries songs about addiction, obsession, and disillusionment. This is eyeliner smeared on bathroom tiles. Hooky, loud, and aching under the noise.
