Indeed they are, there down here in Australia as I type about to perform at one of our bigger festivals.

Without you im nothing is a fantastic album, ive liked a few of their followup albums but none of them can compare to that one. - I also quite like the alpinestars which is placebos lead singers (sorry dont know his name) side project.

Placebo are great. The latest album (Sleeping With Ghosts) is an excellent return to form after the patchy Black Market Music.

I'd recommend the albums in this order:
1. Without You I'm Nothing
2. Sleeping With Ghosts
3. Placebo
4. Black Market Music

Big Mouth Strikes Again & Daddy Cool are two of my favourite cover songs....ace B-sides they were.

I think Brian Molko just done guest vocals on one of their songs. It was called Carbon Kid.

Thanks for that info. I had asumed that he just jumped between bands as they are both doing the festival route down here and i immediately thought of how David Grohl did the same thing with both the foo fighters and queens of the stone age last year.

The only song I really liked from them was Pure Morning, but my musical tastes have changed since then... I might give Without You I'm Nothing another try.

The lead singer, Brian Molko, is quite a feminin man indeed LOL

But I hear they're a really boring band to see live

I can't see Brian Molko ever being boring

Well, I used to trade bootlegs, and Placebo was one of the generally frowned upon bands. Whenever we talked about best and worst bands to see live, Placebo always made the worst list.

i guess any band can be boring live if you don't like them, right?
anyway
when we (EV) played at rock im park in nuremburg they headlined the entire festival over Audioslave. the crowd was totally nuts, twice as much as for audioslave. i hadn't heard them before then really and i loved what i heard.
anyway
bands can be unheard of here and be huge in other countries for sure.

Like??? I think the word you are looking for is Love

my brother likes a few of their songs, but i've never really been into punk rock.

Placebo

If it's musical and not Evanescence, this is the place to talk about it.
