Placebo (Pop) - Battle For the Sun [6/9] *

Artist:

Placebo (Pop)

Description:

Audio Mixer: Alan Moulder.
Placebo made a name for themselves playing tough alt-rock with a glammy, sexually provocative swagger. For the their first album since 2006`s MEDS, the group pulled from the many facets of their sound through the years and created what is perhaps the consummate Placebo release. Tracks alternate between smart, angsty guitar-driven rock ("Kitty Litter," the title track) and anthemic, hook-heavy Britpop ("Ashtray Heart," "Bright Lights"), with touches of dark electronica and lush synth textures thrown in. While the band continues to explore themes of hard living, there`s also considerable self-examination taking place here, with alternatives to the rock & roll lifestyle explicitly laid out on the table. BATTLE FOR THE SUN finds Placebo continuing to evolve as a band in more ways than one.
