Since 1989, MTV has hosted its “Unplugged” series of acoustic concerts by some of the most celebrated pop and rock artists of the time.
2105 also included placebo. A highlight of the series! Brian Molko sings through the melancholic pieces as theatrically as ever, while strings and singers give the placebo songs some big boost.
This makes this unplugged performance with guests like Joan As Police Woman and Broken Twin a concert that brings one certainty above all: You don’t need shaggy guitars for an acoustic concert. It can also be simply stylish.
MTV is showing Placebo’s unplugged performance as part of its 30th anniversary of MTV Unplugged. Broadcast date: Thursday, 04.08. at 11:40 p.m.
The current issue of ROLLING STONE has a big special on the music station’s legendary live series. A list of the top 30 MTV Unplugged albums is also included.
