they are fucking great and sooo much more powerfull live . they used to end their set with a 10 min instrumental with got faster and faster with feedback etc "evil dildo" it was great to behold . their isnt too many experimantal bands like them using different guitar tunings etc (sorry sonic youth didnt have the same effect)

Placebo did afx?
I don't like 'em and don't hate 'em. They're just power-pop with an edgier sound. Not much to ohh and ahh over.

I think the singer is not satisfied with his gender and that has a lot of appeal to insecure teenagers. The music is a lot better than most stuff.

the aphex song is tacked onto the end of "evil dildo" the hidden track on the end of "without you i'm nothing" album. and mate if you like stabbing westward maybe you wouldnt be inclined towards music like placebo . its not just brians lyrics gender isssues that apeal - i know where i stand on that front its the combination of lyrics great guitars fx etc and the power of their songs

Without You I'm Nothing, is a great album. I had just finished a three year relationship when I was listening to it, so it was very apt.

that's the answering machine message that's played throughout the song...i guess it's some obsessive stalker, i remember reading about that song a couple years ago. the afx sample is from Funny Little Man - the computer voice at the end.
just want to say...i saw Placebo less than a year ago on their US tour and I've never heard a better live band, real sharp/angry sound. Brian must take some form of pill for his voice before shows, because when he talked inbetween songs his voice was EXTREMELY HIGH like a chipmunk, not like he talks in interviews...he looked like a diva
