New album- official!

That would mean they'd go mainstream. I don't want that!

Did you see the second part of Stef's video?

The ending is worth watching! I thought it was Fiona in those high heeled sandals. But it wasn't!

I'll just say, well you should know Brian when you have long hair!!!

Great video, I wish more like this.

Oh god, laughed my head off at the end !

He looked good in them too !

That would mean they'd go mainstream. I don't want that!

I don't want it as well but Brian wants. You know, Placebo official street team, placebo official twitter, Ashtray Heart in Motorola adverts... the band uses all the possible ways of promotion, even the worst and rather shameful

Molko also revealed that the next Placebo single will be 'The Never Ending Why', which will be released on September 7. "It's a very spiritual song," he explains. "It's kind of Eastern in its philososphy. It's about the questions that will never be answered. Anyone who has an interest in the meaning of life will come up against a brick wall, but you must accept the fact that there will be no answers and try and get the best out of now."

that's what he called eastern philosophy? Errr I didnt get it. To me Never-ending why talks about Meds period...

I'm happy to hear it'll be The Never-Ending Why, not Ashtray Heart! But, doesn't September seems a bit late?? But, even with that I'm happy, it'll be something like my birthday present!

That's the day I have to have my hernia operation, ouch !
So I could hardly forget that !

I don't think it's the obvious choice for a single though .

i bet u girls have already watched that interview with Stef on Pinkpop...but, does anyone think that the way Stef talks is a bit weird? I mean, it's definitely Brian Molko Style, keep saying 'you know'...

I'd like to compare his speaking with Brian's but hardly can understand a word. My English listening skills sucks, I feel like a deaf fool

But Stef looks all pretty and sweet and his angelic voice

yeah...that's the first time I realized that Stef's voice could be that high-pitch, in previous interviews he always tended to speak in a lower voice and a slower pace.

If you ask me, I think all English people are using 'you know' waaaaay tooooo much!

Stef never spoke that much 'you know'...

It's obviously catching !!!
