PLACEBO - THE RETURN!

Placebo are back in the studio working on a new album! The band finished their last touring campaign in September of last year in the USA (on the Projekt Revolution tour with Linkin Park and My Chemical Romance). Since then the band have taken some much needed time out and over the past couple of months have been hard at work writing and demoing new material in London. The boys are now recording with producer David Bottrill (the man behind Tool’s ‘Aenima’, ‘Salival’ and ‘Lateralus’ albums, Silverchair’s ‘Diorama’ and dEUS ‘The Ideal Crash’). Engineering the album is James Brown who worked with the band on ‘Meds’.

...And on the drums with Placebo...?????!!!!! Introducing... Mr Steve Forrest! Hailing from Modesto, California, he was previously the drummer with American rock band, ‘Evaline’. Some of you may have spotted Steve playing with Evaline supporting Placebo on their US tour in October '06.

WOW! The producer of Tool It must be great

And you can find a photo of the new drummer on the official site

I'm so happy!At last!I thought they're never going to find a drummer

Wow, great news! I don't know much about him, but I hope he's good in his job and that he'll be good team with Brian and Stefan!

And most important, finally we have some fresh news! Yay!

And his name is Steve, also! OMG.

I hope the new producer is a good sign. So the drummer's name is Steve, huh?

Yep, I find it sad that his name is Steve. And I don't like the way this guy looks. He seems a little untidy and too punky for the intellectual Placebo

I agree with you!!!

i'm soooo happy for them

can't wait the new album!

The new producer is great!!!! "ideal crash" is brilliant !!!!


cant accept the fact that they'v already got a new drummer....i miss sweet old STEVE!!!!!!

the newbie just seemes....too young to be Placebo

I couldn't find the picture of him

^ Nicky, u can find it in the left side bar on PLACEBOWORLD's news page.

He's VERY,VERY YOUNG...22 yrs old i heard.

but he's a kid!

He doesn't look like Placebo at all

Yes, I think I agree with most of you here.

He looks too young, and not Placebo style at all.

About his age, maybe they wanted someone younger, who will have to listen all what Brian and Steffy say.

haha, I have something on my mind. Maybe his style is going to be new Placebo style. Just remember Brian's photo with longer hair and hat. But, I really hope I'm wrong!

the average age of bandmembers will be younger...that's a good news...

I just hope he's a good musician. Nevertheless, I'm worried about their new image with him.

^ god...u just hit the point...

About his age, maybe they wanted someone younger, who will have to listen all what Brian and Steffy say.

I thought of it too

I just hope he's a good musician. Nevertheless, I'm worried about their new image with him.

I feel the same, Daria Though they are adult enough to have their own style and not to be interesting in copying anyone, I'm still afraid. I don't want them to look like him. I dislike this 'omg! I'm a tattooed super manly hero who had a thousand girls and blah-blah-blah' style

I'd like to see somebody like Alex or Bill, adult and serious

^ Yes, I'd like that also.

But let's look this from a positive side, maybe that new young energy will be good for Placebo.

He have tattoos?

Oh, ignore me, I just now saw those tattoos. But whole Placebo was without them so far, right?

Yes, he's got ugly tattoos. He's all tattooed. I hate it. it makes him look dirty. I want to send him to the baths

But whole Placebo was without them so far, right?

And I want them to be without them in future

tattooed all over? god, katya, i just feel the same as you did...

I hate tatoos I've always liked the fact that Bri and Stef have no tatoos.That makes them look more serious,right?Tatoos are somehow...childish

I agree so much. I also hate tattoos

Here is this guy










On this photo he looks like a guy from the famous Russian boys band called 'Na-Na'


On the left

OMG,he's such an American boy...anyway, he's totally not my type...

OMG Those photos!

I agree with everything you said girls.

This is really too much tattoos.

I don't mind if someone likes them, but anything what is too much, can't look good. Personally, I think I'm not going to make any tattoo ever.

This is so not Placebo, just American style... Oh...
