Covers EP

Placebo’s Covers EP for Hut Recordings strips their alternative rock framework down to interpretive essentials, finding unexpected intimacy in renditions of songs beyond their own catalog. The band’s knack for brooding melodrama translates across genres—each cover becomes a vehicle for their signature androgynous vocals and guitar-driven arrangements. This is Placebo as devoted listeners, not just performers, revealing the influences that shaped their aesthetic across nearly two decades.
