  • Placebo - Covers Wednesday 19 May 2010

    Placebo - CoversCommendably sells their incomparable brand of dark, licentious rock beautifully.

    The very idea of a covers album may have connotations of a concept employed by waning pop artists taking a stab at swing music. However, this collection of re-readings from post-Britpop neo-glam bastions Placebo is an entirely different entity. A smattering of B sides, live favourites and other rarities make Covers a one-artist compilation album as opposed to a from-scratch covers project, and it functions all the better for it.
