Placebo RE:CREATED | Xposure Album Playback

Brian Molko sat down with Radio X’s John Kennedy to discuss Placebo RE:CREATED - the 30th anniversary “director’s cut” of the band’s self-titled debut album - which is out now. In the expansive chat, the Placebo frontman talks about everything from enlisting acclaimed producer Rob Kirwan on the record to what first inspired him to revisit the classic album. See Molko reflect on the band's formation and Placebo's rise amid the backdrop of the '90s, find out what influenced the band - including co-founding member Stefan Osdal - the first time around, and learn how his relationship to Nancy Boy has evolved throughout the years... Also see the alt rock icon discuss the "deleted scenes" he reinstates on the record and find out the only instrument that's been “taken away”. Plus discover, the touching "full-circle" moment that was gifted to live band member Nick Gavrilovic during the recording of the reimagined album. Join us as we rediscover the band’s game-changing debut, track by track...
