Placebo will release new EP

British band Placebo is one of my favorite bands of all times. I really love these guys and love how passionate they are about their music. I also love their love performances, which are many times better than studio versions. I had a chance to see them live in 2009 in Czech Republic at Rock for People festival.

Their last sixth studio album entitled Battle For The Sun came out in June of 2009. Since then they released redux edition of this record, EP Live At Angkor Wat (which is an amazing live EP),  and also live DVD We Come in Pieces (it came out on October 31, 2011).

This means that all the Placebo fans have been waiting for new full-length album for more than 3 years and it seem like they will have to wait more - band has recently announced that they will release new EP.

It is entitled B3EP and it will be out on October 15, 2012. It will feature five brand new tracks: "B3", "I Know You Want To Stop", "The Extra", "I.K.W.Y.L." and "Time Is Money".

The band also announced interesting competition where people are asked to create their own artwork of the album. Winner will be picked by the band itself and will receive a framed test print of the B3EP artwork, signed by Placebo.

To preorder the album and also listen to snippets of all tracks featured on the EP, visit itunes store. Based on previews, the album sounds good.
