"teenage angst" is the first section of my book, "songs of youth", and it is compiled of poetry i wrote as a raging teenager. i entitled it after the eponymous placebo track, in which brian molko scratchily sings: "since i was born, i started to decay".
in the depths of my teenage angst, i followed placebo on tour and wrote live reviews of their delicious gigs! what a better day for a tender run through memory than today, the 3rd of may - the 2nd of may is considered the official placebo day by 'cebo lovers. you can read "Placebo: Desire, Heartbreak & Dark Romanticism" here:
(eng) https://www.flickofthefinger.co.uk/.../placebo-wembley.../ (2017)
(ro) https://www.dissolvedmagazine.com/placebo-desire-heartbreak/ (2017) - lengthened!
since songs of youth came out, i have been revisiting my favourites and sinking into brian molko's voice. it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that i wrote most of this collection with their tunes ringing in my ears or chest.
i am so happy that they exist & i can delight in their music. forever grateful that they raised me on tones of diffidence, with an appetite for delirious experiences - and freedom.

Placebo 20 years anniversary tour. I’ve love the gigs I intended for this tour. And I love the posters so much. So I edited them into postcards 🥰
