AVAILABILITY.
Placebo are a British rock band, formed in London in 1994 by
vocalist–guitarist Brian Molko and bassist–guitarist Stefan Olsdal. Drummer
Robert Schultzberg joined in late 1994 but left in 1996 shortly after the
release of the band's eponymous debut album due to conflicts with Molko, and was
replaced the same year by Steve Hewitt.
Placebo's influences include David Bowie, Can,
Iggy Pop and the
Stooges, Pixies,
Depeche Mode and
Nine Inch Nails. The New York Times compared them to bands of the "first
wave of post-punk rock, particularly
New Order, The
Cure, early U2 and Talking
Heads".

Hire Placebo for your festival or concert plans!
Placebo have been cited as an influence on such bands as
My Chemical
Romance and
Panic! at the
Disco.
Following the release of a demo, a split single, and their eponymous debut
album, Placebo gained exposure in 1997 after the single "Nancy Boy"
became popular in the UK, a song notorious at the time for its gender-bending
content. The band stood out amongst the Britpop scene they were associated with
at the time for their androgynous appearance and musical content, and lyrics
which openly discussed sexuality, mental health, and drug use.
In 2007, Placebo joined
Linkin Park,
My Chemical
Romance,
Taking Back
Sunday and various other acts for the annual Projekt: Revolution
tour.
Placebo's music has typically been labeled as alternative rock. They
have, however, also incorporated different sounds in their music throughout
their career. Critics have also described the band's sound as pop punk,
industrial rock, Britpop, glam rock, gothic rock, electronic rock, post-punk
revival, and experimental rock. Progressive rock elements in the band's earlier
works along with grunge and punk rock influences were also noted.
Lyrically, Placebo's music contains many references to drugs and
sexuality.
Their discography includes six extended plays, and 33
singles.
