If you don't already have some Placebo in your music collection, you are late to the party. And this isn't just any party, this is an androgynous Ketamine ridden S&M extravaganza. Placebo has been described as “the glam Nirvana” or something like that, as music critics of the 90s understood all music involving electric guitars and punk-esque rhythms to be some sort of rip-off of Nirvana.
The thing about Placebo is they tend to make very,very strong singles. However, most of their albums, with the exception of their Self-Titled are not all that strong overall, they just have a few amazing singles. This album take all those tracks you would skip too on each of their albums and puts them one after another. Now to be fair, there are plenty of really strong Placebo songs I would have liked to see on here that aren't. That being said, this is definitely an “if I was stuck on a desert island with just a few albums” album for me. Every song in this collection is fantastic. It's Placebo at their mopey bisexual skinny art-kid best.
