Placebo Bio
Placebo is an alternative rock band formed in London in 1994, consisting of Brian Molko, Stefan Olsdal and Steve Forrest. To date, they have released five studio albums, six EPs and twenty-seven singles. The band has gained a considerable amount of international recognition, including non-English speaking countries. They have sold over one million albums in the U.K. and over ten million worldwide.
Thus far, Placebo is best known for hit songs such as: Nancy Boy, Pure Morning, You Don't Care About Us, Every You Every Me, The Bitter End, Twenty Years, Because I Want You, Infra-Red, Meds and a cover of the Kate Bush song Running Up That Hill. The band's style has varied greatly over the years. Starting as a post-grunge band, they changed to a softer sound after their first album and then began to experiment with synthesizers and other, less traditional, modes of sound production.
The band gained some measure of notoriety for the sexualities of its members (Olsdal is homosexual and Molko is bisexual) as well as for their excessive lifestyles and Molko's androgynous image, which are often referred to in their songs.
Placebo was formed by singer/guitarist Brian Molko and bassist Stefan Olsdal. Earlier, both had attended the American International School of Luxembourg, but didn't cross paths properly until 1994 in London, England; the two met by chance at South Kensington tube station and Molko invited Olsdal to watch him perform at a local bar. On the strength of Molko's performance, Olsdal decided that they should form a band.
The band could not decide on a drummer at first. Molko had been playing occasional gigs with Steve Hewitt whom he had met outside of Burger King in 1991, through Hewitt's then girlfriend. Hewitt was the ideal choice for the position of drummer but only played on occasional demos, because he had other commitments to the London band Breed. This lead to Robert Schultzberg assuming the position of drummer when the band signed its contract with Caroline Records. Schultzberg had known Olsdal from school in Luxembourg as well as from an earlier Swedish band that they had both been members of.
While briefly known as "Ashtray Heart," from a Captain Beefheart lyric, the band quickly settled on the name Placebo. At the time of the band's formation, many other bands were naming themselves after drugs and Placebo's name is a loosely a satirical reflection of that theme. When asked about naming a band, Molko said: "It’s a complex question to answer, really. As musicians you try to find a name for your band that represents you and you never really, because, basically, names for bands lose their meaning after awhile. They become a series of sounds that you associate with people in music. The most important thing for a name is that you can imagine forty thousand people screaming it in unison."
