Placebo hadn’t released any albums for years, then “Never Let Me Go” came in 2022, a strong return as a duo, with undulating, queer paranoia sounds that made you forget the unwanted from the recent past. The band’s first live box set now brings together performances from Spain, London and Mexico in various formats, with only the one from Low Festival also being available digitally.
Live From The White Room, recorded at Twickenham Studios, pays tribute to the new LP. There is an intoxicating recording of “This Is What You Wanted” from Mexico City on Bluray. The two tour gigs contain songs from all career phases. A real statement as a testament to the live revitalization of placebo energy.
