Love Amongst Ruin 'SO SAD (fade)'

[22um2]

Great voice of Steve abd great group. But I'm like disrupted to see him without Placebo.

[spiehole]

Ya know, Placebo is so successful because ALL of the band members have talent. It's really nice to see that Steve is taking a front seat for a change-it takes a lot of guts! I don't like it when Brian does all the talking in interviews while the others are quiet-and it's about time Steph start singing a bit more....would be nice!

[DeadStar800]

This is one of the best songs I've ever heard!! Brilliant song :)

[rainbowreikiheart]

YES YES!!! The first song I have ever heard of LAR.... luv it!!! I am waiting for new gigs in Germany!!!

[MolkosPrincess]

I love the energy LAR shows! I love how committed you are with your project! This video is just one of the amazing that I'm sure are coming soon. Thank you!

[ralphsplaceboworld]

GREAT song!!! LAR sucks

[ralphsplaceboworld]

What a fantastic song with fantastic video! I love LAR!!!

[Enda789]

The song's amazing! Steve has a wonderful voice.

[fainsadi]

When I first saw Steve singing and playing the guitar I looked like the confused Jack Russel from the old His Master's Voice ad. By the end of the song, I was completely convinced. Wonderful job on both this song and the band as an entirety.

[gumba12]

great tune, someone has a great taste in women judging by the video :)

[JezebelLynx]

i personally love it. :)

[YouSeeSaf]

never get bored of this song. Kind of feel like this at the moment too..

[prrrnkc]

Great song.

[somerandomhomeboy]

looks like a room from "the king's speech" was used or is it computer-generated?

either way,very cool!!!

[ignoranttwat]

I heard Steve is a dickhead+this is pretty pathetic+Placebo have been pathetic for a while now.

[Ecrounox]

It's so strange seeing him playing guitar and singing rather than being stuck behind those drums of his. I love it. I absolutely love it. I hope Steve makes his new band into something great.

So, Placebo's Battle for the Sun album isn't so great, but their newest single certainly is. I kind of like their new drummer, but...

Steve. I love you, man.

[bittercokejjang]

@madder66mortem I can't believe brian and stephan did that to steve.

theyve been together in the band over a decade making greatest piece of

art together . Steve was def one of the main men making placebo sound so much like placebo.

[bittercokejjang]

i still love placebo but man,,their lastest album bfts is a bit disappointing to me..they sound plain and different from their previous albums that steve worked on together ..its like placebo have lost a great portion of their own sentimental feels after steve left...damn..well its my personal opinion ,a fan from korea. Steve i truly wish to see you have world tour here in korea soon! good luck and love your songs!

[m3dicated]

love listening to them. sth new.

[Yuullen]

Love it !

[SeriouslyRandom20]

i do like this song alot but i don't liek steve. i wan reading an interview recently and he was just being so ungrateful and rude to brian and placebo. and just maoning about everything tht was wrong with them. but if it wasn't for placebo u wouldn't have this band or any realy music career :/

[TheStrawberryThief]

@SeriouslyRandom20 He was a big part of Placebo and I don't think he owes anyone anything. They booted him out and he was hurt by that. Doesn't mean he's not grateful for his fans and success I don't think.

Could you let me know where you read the interview? I'd like to have a read.

[madder66mortem]

@SeriouslyRandom20 Could you please tell me which interview was this?!!  I would love to read it...

[SeriouslyRandom20]

@madder66mortem it was in a magazine called rock sound here is some extracts from it.

" i think placebo got too fucking serious, it wasn't enjoyable and Brian (molko) got more and more controlling, it just wasn't fun anymore"

and

" i was always writing with brian, but i surpose he tried to convert whatever was being said to (fit) his emotion and a lot of my stuff got covered in dust"

and

" i had control and i didn't have to fight with brian or stefan which i enjoyed.

[madder66mortem]

@SeriouslyRandom20 Thanks for this! I did find the interview and read it. To me it is Steve just detailing his last experiences in the band. He was not told by the band they didn`t want him anymore,supposedely after the tour in 07 he was just called to Virgin Head Office in London and fired ( Placebo weren`t there )! The band did not speak to him afterwards either! That would have been an enormous shock for him and one of the toughest experiences in his life....

[madder66mortem]

@SeriouslyRandom20 I know things change and i believe no matter how bad things had gotten Placebo at least owed Steve, out of respect for all the good work he had done with them, to speak to him and let him know what was happening. Just my personal feeling on the matter....

[sinhro1]

Amazing video, lyrics and song!!!

Steve, just keep on rocking! :-)

I can say that I like more Steve's work with LAR than Placebo's new album which is quite plastic in my opinion not all the song but most of them...

[AliVeela]

One of the best Rock-songs of 2010 - in my opinion. Great song, magical video! That gives me the creeps.

[murraythe]

wow this aint bad

[plachebita]

Loved...

I wanna seen live in my country! =P... Someday... someday....

[komacommunity]

See you sunday night in Berlin! It's gonna be awesome! Anybody else going?

[Blew612]

Steve Like Dave Grhol

[anarchie38666]

Génial !!!

[anarchie38666]

Génial !!!

[originofskill]

I am a HUGE Placebo fan but i can see now why steve left. This is AMAZING!

[poeticsquirrel]

Love this video <3 And I'm so happy the album is finally released today - feels like I've been waiting ages to hear it!

[lullis79]

see you in switzerland in october, energize me out!

[Placophobia]

<3 (all I can say)

[jeff551z]

considering he used to be a drummer you'd think they'd have a better drum line

[placeboeffecto]

LAR sound different than placebo please listen to the melody..

its more RAW and rock n roll yea...

even the guitar sound the distortion were raw..

so wth u comparing with placebo..

its different band with different style..

and i'm really glad could came up with a song like this,

[traduccionesgeo]

Way to go Steve!!

Didn´t know he had such a voice!!! I had a chance of talking to him while in Argentina, and he's a sweetheart!! Love him! I'm really happy he has his own band now!! No more standing in the shadows!

[vanessaaa23]

he needs to go back to placebo!!!

[mysweeetprince]

Steve's voice is amazing.

[willmasahiro]

This isn't that good. He should be drumming. It's kinda pathetic. They need to kick that fool Forrest out of the band and bring back Steve Hewitt! PLacebo's sound has suffered a lot from this ordeal as well. It hasn't been good for anybody, no matter how many copies of battle for the sun are sold. Fucking Tragic

[sinhro1]

@willmasahiro

Yes I agree with you ... in the artistic way BFTS has lower quality in my opinion - their sound is plastic and empty and more commercial ...

[rikitikitavi0]

I didn't suppose Steve to be such a talented vocalist!

[PICASONINJA]

amazing song, amazing video its a great job i hope that they wiil come to Greece for a live. They ve done wonderful job wait to hear the album

[Got2leave]

Great song, cool video - dungeon dancers added an extra edge - terrific.

[Got2leave]

Great song - cool video

[TheGEVARO]

BOMBA!

Great Job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[blacksombraking]

Steve is the best. The Only One Placebo's Drummer. Great Job With Love Amongst Ruin.

[Annikadilmah]

@blacksombraking yep forrrrrrrrrest can suck

[czaderska]

I am very proud of him and I am pleased that I was wrong, when I said that he was over. By the way- what a voice!!! :O

[carouselcity]

cool

[Dirtymirror0]

no sense song...stupid pop-rock,sad time for music

[josueplacebo]

Amazing Song!!!! yeah!!!!! I Miss You Steve Hewitt In Placebo!!!! : (

[introv]

SO SAD!! there was more to do with this. very bad production for a good song, hope you find better. Loved Steve with Placebo. And love him singing now.! GOOD LUCK!!!

[theimperfecta]

it's a mix between placebo and marilyn manson, isn't it?

good song :D

i like the end...it sounds awesome.

[Molkitalanders]

Excelente calidad del video, me enccanta la rola!! amo a steve hewitt

[opsa5]

Well done Steve btw absolutely good!
