The new Placebo album somehow doesn't suck as much as I thought it would (although, being a fangirl, I'm biased). The lyrics are awful as expected, but most of the instrumentals are good; they're at their best leaning into moodier and more atmospheric stuff - good opener, good few closing tracks, a few nice enough ones in the middle weighed down by some real stinkers.
