Following the success of their recent warm-up shows, Placebo are pleased to announce a UK and Irish arena tour in December including The 02 Arena in London.
Placebo are also set to return to the main stage of the Reading/Leeds Festivals this August, and make a headline appearance at Rockness Festival, Scotland, on June 14th
With a thirteen year history that takes in five studio albums, ten million album sales, breakdowns, clean ups and the dizzy swell of global success, ‘Battle For The Sun’ is Placebo’s first new album since the release of ‘Meds’ in 2006.
Recorded over three months by producer Dave Bottrill in his Toronto studio (chosen by the band largely because of his work with Tool) and mixed in London by My Bloody Valentine, Smashing Pumpkins and Nine Inch Nails supremo Alan Moulder, Placebo’s sixth album is a startling, alive, vital and boundary-vaulting record that marks a whole new era for a band.
The dates are as follows:
December -
Tuesday 08th Birmingham LG Arena
Wednesday 09th London The O2 Arena
Friday 11th Bridlington Spa
Saturday 12th Manchester Central
Monday 14th Glasgow SECC
Tuesday 15th Dublin Olympia Theatre
