Placebo Announce New Album Details

• 30th Mar 2009

Placebo have announced the track listing for their upcoming sixth studio album ‘Battle For The Sun’ which will be released on June 8th.

The album, the band’s first since ‘Meds’ in 2006, has already had its title track given a worldwide play on Radio 1 by Zane Lowe which garnered a hugely positive response from fans. Speaking about the new album, front man Brian Molko said:

“I believe 'Battle' to be the first of our albums to tell a story over the course of its 52 minutes. Our previous releases were really only collections of songs and even though the songs are ordered according to the musical flow, I hope that if you listen hard enough to the words that some kind of discernible thematic unity will begin to emerge.”

The track listing for ‘Battle For The Sun’ is:

1. Kitty Litter

2. Ashtray Heart

3. Battle For The Sun

4. For What It's Worth

5. Devil In The Details

6. Bright Lights

7. Speak In Tongues

8. The Never – Ending Why

9. Julien

10. Happy You're Gone
