    I'm a bigger fan of them now than I was when I saw them on Projekt Rev five years ago. Their live show turned me off for quite awhile, but then I torrented their discography for the hell of it one night and a fair portion of what I heard.

    I love Placebo. I saw them at Sonisphere Knebworth 2010 and caught the drumstick. Superb performance, and they totally out-played Rammstein who were on afterwards.

    I like them, though I didn't keep up much after Meds. Is the newer stuff any good?

    Better than Meds, in my opinion. Battle for The Sun is my favorite song. They're working on a new album right now.

    Yep, big fan. My favorite song is "Running Up That Hill." Meds is one of my favorite albums from them.

    I've only got their second album, but its pretty good stuff, although a few of the songs are little to slow and boring for me. I really need to get around to getting more of their stuff but I'm a bit lazy.

    Since we're deeling so amused with time in our comfort zone
    Reminds me the second time that I followed you home
    We're running out of allibi
    On the second of may
    Reminds me of the summer time on this winter's day
    See you at the bitter end
    See you at the bitter end

    Their music didn't quite propelled them here. But when MTV was good back on the early 2000's, I really liked The Bitter End and This Picture (both from Sleeping with Ghosts) .. Then I lost track of them, Twenty Years is a good song as well.

    I used to be obsessive with Brian Molko.
