There are some bands, you just feel, they like Asian food too much. Like Placebo for example. Just look at them, you can already tell Brian loves to chow down to a nice large plate of 'Nasi Lemak Ayam'. Otherwise why would he come here so often. Never mind 'Nasi Lemak Ayam' is a Malaysian (yeah!) dish and the band has technically never been to Malaysia, I am currently prophesying that they are going to. And from what I figure, what I prophesy, tends to come true. Take Rachel for example, I prophesied that she would be by [...]

With winter well and truly on its way we're now experiencing dark mornings and dark (early) evenings. Well maybe not everybody gets to see the dark mornings, some may not have the displeasure of having to arise at 6am but i do and by the time i get home from work it's either half 5 or 6. Sometimes later. Basically at this time of year i feel like a vampire, i hardly see any daylight, between the hours of 8am and 5pm i'm stuck in a garage all day and because it's cold this time of year the huge shutter [...]

I've always considered Lush a rather underrated band but thanks to the recent shoegaze revival I hope people will soon start checking out their excellent '90s stuff. Anyway, here are a couple of mint covers from these 4AD shoegazers, backed up by yet another Placebo tune and Chicane 's take on Sigur Rós. Enjoy! Lush - Demystification (Zounds cover) Lush - Mannequin (Wire cover) Placebo - Johnny and [...]

I hold an image of the ashtray girl As the cigarette burns on my chest I wrote a poem that described her world That put my friendship to the test And late at night Whilst on all fours She used to watch me kiss the floor Whats wrong with this picture? Whats wrong with this picture? Farewell the ashtray girl [...]

Here's a random mix for you. No reason for it. Just some songs that I've not gotten round to fitting in any posts but that I think deserve to be heard. So I thought I'd herd them all together like rogue sheep into this random mix. Enjoy. Broken Social Scene - xerxes (live acoustic session version) Coldplay - we never change (live acoustic session version) original version available on 'Parachutes' The Dandy Warhols - not if you were [...]

I am sure that Placebo fans must have bookmarked my blog by now as it seems that every other week I feature Molko and co in my posts. Anyway, here's PJ Harvey 's Hardly Wait along with two New Order and a Killers cover. Enjoy! Placebo - Hardly Wait (PJ Harvey cover) MOBY - Temptation (New Order cover) Sennen - Bizarre Love Triangle (New Order cover) Tally [...]

Two of my favourite bands of all time are Archive and Placebo , so as you can imagine I was thrilled to learn that Brian Molko and co would cover Fuck U . Although I still find the original version better (check it out here ), Placebo 's take is well worth a listen, as is House Of The Rising Sun by Muse . The remaining covers are courtesy of Peaches and The Brides . Enjoy! Placebo - Fuck U [...]

Parece la nueva tendencia: ¿las marcas salvarán a las discográficas? Sólo el tiempo lo dirá, y mientras... nosotros disfrutamos.
" Ashtray Heart " è il nuovo singolo della band dei Placebo . Questo che vi mostriamo in alto è il video ufficiale della canzone. La clip è caratterizzata da immagini sfocate in un mix di colori: è un pò monotono come video ma in compenso c'è il pezzo che risulta essere molto piacevole, anche se non è ai livelli del primo singolo estratto dall'ultimo album.
