The team at Music Universe have been sitting patiently waiting for this news to hit their desks. Finally, finally, finally, Placebo have confirmed that they will release their new album on June 8th.
The album, entitled 'Battle For The Sun', is the group's first new studio effort since 2006's epic album 'Meds'.
'Battle For The Sun' was recorded over three months with producer Dave Bottrill (the man behind Tool’s 'Ænima' and 'Lateralus' and Silverchair’s 'Diorama' albums) in Toronto, Canada and mixed in London by Alan Moulder.
Singer Brian Molko said the band had made an album “about choosing life, about choosing to live, about stepping out of the darkness and into the light”.
He added: “Not necessarily turning your back on the darkness because it’s there, it’s essential; it’s a part of who you are, but more about the choice of standing in the sunlight instead.”
This is the first album recorded with new drummer Steve Forrest.
