The 10th anniversary re-mastered version of Placebo's classic eponymous debut, which was originally released in July 1996 and went on to become one of THE seminal rock albums of the 1990s. The album re-issue will feature the original album re-mastered, plus exclusive, previously unavailable demo `Paycheck', and fan club only demo `Flesh Mechanic'. Also included are B-sides `Drowning By Numbers', which was the B-side to Placebo's long since deleted second single `Come Home' - released on Deceptive Records; and `Slackerbitch', which appeared on `Nancy Boy'. The second disc is a DVD made up of all the promo videos from the album and previously unavailable live and TV performances, including a Glastonbury 1998 performance of `Lady of The Flowers', and a hilarious Big Breakfast roadshow performance of `Teenage Angst'.

经过第一张同名专辑后，Placebo延续90年代另类摇滚的传奇（Smashing Pumpkins等前辈），获得了乐迷的肯定。在这第二张专辑《Without You I'm Nothing》中，他们混合了70年代的两个风潮：Glam Rock和Punk。Stefan Olsdal的贝斯和Steve Hewitt的鼓为Placebo制造了紧迫而具张力的节奏部分。当然乐队的焦点依然是宛如雌雄同体的歌手兼吉他手Brian Molko。当然从声音上辨认，我们依然可以听到很传统的另类摇滚风格。因此Brian Molko更多的魅力是来自音乐以外。或者在现场，他会展现更多的魅力。毕竟，摇滚音乐的魅力依然是集中在现场上的。
不要以为， Brian Molko是虚有其表的绣花枕头。第一张专辑的全部作品都是出自他手；而新专辑中他也依然负责全部的歌词写作。专辑作品以典型的另类摇滚快歌为主。开场篇 Pure Morning是一首自我宣言式的歌曲。Celebration of Friendship with Women》则注定是一首优秀的单曲作品。Brick Shithouse合并了90年代的电子摇滚风格和Sonic Youth式的Punk吉他。You Don't Care About Us让人重拾80年代的吉他流行曲感觉。在包容了大量的风格之下，《Without You I'm Nothing》必定可以获得广大乐迷的欢迎。

2009 release, the sixth studio album from the British Alt-Rock trio. With a 13 year history that takes in five studio albums, 10 million album sales, breakdowns, clean ups and the dizzy swell of global success, Placebo return with their first album since the release of Meds in 2006. Battle For The Sun was recorded over three months by producer Dave Bottrill (chosen by the band largely because of his work with Tool) in his Toronto studio and mixed in London by Alan Moulder. Battle For The Sun is a startling, alive, vital and boundary-vaulting record that marks a whole new era for a band that were in need of a change.
