The Story
Placebo is a British alternative rock band known for their eclectic mix of indie rock, electronic rock, and Britpop. The group formed in London in 1994 and features the distinctive vocals and guitar work of Brian Molko alongside bassist-guitarist Stefan Olsdal, who have been the band's mainstays over the years. With a rotating cast of drummers, including Steve Forrest and Steve Hewitt, they’ve created a sound marked by moody melodies and introspective lyrics. Their hit “Every You Every Me” showcases their knack for blending catchy hooks with darker themes, making their music both thought-provoking and accessible. Placebo's unique style has left a lasting impression on the alternative scene.
