Album Review
The key to Placebo's sound is singer/guitarist Brian Molko, whose impersonation of a woman goes far beyond his appearance and into his singing voice. His trio brings together various influences — the epic, noisy "Chicago sound," late-'70s prog rock, and late-'80s "college rock" — but boils them down into fairly conventional, guitar-heavy melodrama, with the sort of opaque and angst-ridden lyrics usually found in that genre. That's not to say that Placebo's sound is boring; churning guitars and direct, heavy basslines give the album a good deal of strength, and Molko is able to write moving, gritty melodies and fairly clever lyrics. Placebo may sound like a mix between the Smashing Pumpkins and Rush — and the levels of melodrama on the album may stretch far beyond most people's tolerance — but it's well-written and performs enough variations on those genres to keep it interesting.

?
the reviewer called placebo borring i think..... fail? anybody?
:D
Placebo is frickin' amazing. And it always will be. <3
their first is their best... well imo :]
i have every album this band has released and although its difficult to pick a favorite, this, their first, has to be it for me. theirs something youthfull to this album that the others dont quite have, probably because the band was younger when this was made. as a young person myself, i feel a special connection to it. songs like Teenage Angst and Come Home really make me feel like a teenager again, and listening to Nancy Boy helped and inspired me to come to terms with my own bisexuality. i love the mix of fantastically upbeat and deeply depressing that many of placebos albums have, but especially in this one. i would recomend every album by them of course, but for new fans, i would say get this one first... or their singles album Once More With Feeling
