Placebo “thought the band was over”

 Placebo “thought the band was over” 


Editor Katie Watkins 29/322


Placebo have return with breathtaking new album "Never Let Me Go". With beautiful crafted tracks such as " The Prodigal, Beautiful James, Happy Birthday To The Sky, Hugz".
The band have opened up about how they “thought the band was over” after their previous “retrospective” tour.



The band member Brian Molko  talked about how touring since their last album release in 2013, ‘Loud Like Love’ left them creatively spent. 
The tours that followed the release of the album were to mark their 20th anniversary as a band and tour a second ‘best of’ collection.

Brian Molko said “We weren’t particularly comfortable with the prospect of doing a retrospective and retrospective tour.” 
“At the time we were  still under contract with Universal Records, and we had the feeling that we’d lose all support from them if we didn’t embark on this hideously materialistic and mercantile endeavour.”

The band’s co-founder Stefan Olsdal added: “That tour lasted for such a long time, and we both started to feel a slightly unhealthy  and disillusioned relationship with our old material and had a crisis of confidence coming into this new album and we both felt during the last tour that the band was coming to end.

The album is there best album since "Meds" the new music Lucid, thought-provoking and masterfully crafted, Never Let Me Go is a real triumph in every sense. Not once do you feel yourself flagging, or looking to skip a song, and you can’t help but think that the long time off has given the band many benefits. The world and everyone in it has changed markedly since when Loud Like Love was released, and when Placebo first burst onto the scene, but they’ve managed to keep their core values, but mould them for this incredibly momentous juncture that humanity finds itself at environmentally, politically, socially and personally.
This album  so far had tremendous commercial success with the album charting on iTunes in 23 countries
UK(2) USA (18) Austria (5) Australia (2) Belgium (2) Brazil (4) Canada (9)
Denmark (3) Finland (1) France (1) Germany (2) Greece (1) Italy (1)
Ireland (2) Netherlands (1) New Zealand (5) Poland (2)
Russia (1) South Africa (4) Spain (6) Sweden (8) Switzerland (2) Turkey (2) 
This album will have you fall back in love the band.

Matt Goss Beautiful Unknown London Show Fails To Sell Out

   Matt Goss Beautiful Unknown London Show Fails To Sell Out Editor Katie Watkin's 24/4/22 Matt Goss once again failed to generate any interest from fans for his one show London Palladium performance. Matt announced on social media, that he would be performing at the London Palladium on the 23rd of April. Ticket sales have been so low the singer had to reduce ticket prices in the attempt to fill the 2000 space capacity theater, with online giant Ticketmaster emailing fans and providing notifications about new seat allocation nearer to the stage.  This practice is normally done when a venue struggles to sell tickets. With Matt so desperate to try and fill the Palladium, he begged fans to buy up to 6 tickets each and gift them to family members and strangers.  His management team also took to social media begging fans to buy, with one fan Dee Murphy posting buy tickets it's less than a pedicure. Tickets last week continued to struggle with some fans once again purchasi...

MATT GOSS MANAGERS MICHAEL LICATA  AND ROB FERGUSON POSTED   PATHEIC APOLOGY TO A FAN WHO THEY BOTH VICOUSLY ATTACKED ON SOCIAL MEDIA. Editor Katie Watkins 11-11-2021 Rob Ferguson and Michael Licata who both manage 80's Pop icon and Bros frontman Matt Goss have both been forced to give an apology for the disgusting abusive and vile behavior. The action of Michael Licata and Rob Ferguson (Lit Management / Transcend Music) both asked members of several Facebook groups to share their vile posts, which escalated to a vicious assault on a male fan reputation and threats to his life. The attacks were so bad the male fan had received threats from hundreds of fans in which numerous fans were investigated by the police. The male fan graciously accepted the pathetic apology, which when read was more about Rob and Michael than a sincere apology.  The fan told us that the online trolling and the horrendous behavior by some middle-aged woman who posted vile comments on Facebook w...

Luke Goss on his time to shine. Editor Katie Watkin's 4 /2/ 22 Starting his career alongside his brother Matt, Luke Goss was the beloved drummer from 80's Global sensation Bros. Even though Matt was the singer, Luke had thousands of adoring fans who would follow him everywhere.
