Placebo B3 EP review




Who knows about the band Placebo? Well Placebo is a band from the early 90's and its a pretty rad band just ask me and i'll tell you which album is best (the debut) but who cares? Anyway this EP is totally exciting why? cus this is the first major new material since battle for the sun in '09 and any fan would be excited. well i wouldn't call myself a fan but this is very exciting and right now i am itching to listen to it.
here we go:

First impression:
1. B3: It's pretty loud as expected from Placebo. It's kind of calm for them though... i hear really the same sound as before in the drums but the guitar is a little different. That's just me maybe. I don't know about you but i like this Placebo over the battle for the sun Placebo.

2. I Know You Wanna Stop: Hmmmm... its a strange song there is a pretty creepy feel to it but its less creepy then what i'm used to hearing Placebo play. It is really good. very modern sounding and has lots of transitions.

3. The Extra: Acoustic. That's all i gotta say. Amazing that they added an acoustic. That's a change i like. i don't know about the booming. honestly this EP so far is very impressive.

4. I.K.W.Y.L.: I know where you live? is that what it stands for? This song is pretty impressive i think i'm excited for the new upcoming album if this EP is an indicator of the new album i think it will be amazing. this song is amazing it sound very modern and is just the right amount of passive aggressive its addicting.

5. Time is Money: This song is a little more melancholy. It's soft and it sounds like the older placebo sound. Very catchy when he starts speaking about "jesus" the voice is varying more than any other Placebo song and in a way its very good at putting you under a spell of enchantment.

RATING: ♪♪♪♪/♪♪♪♪ Four Out Of Four Eighth Notes.
