i already reserved mine *keeps fingers crossed*
the golden laminate competition is a sort of Charlie and the chocolate factory thing
We are going to hide 5 Golden Laminate passes inside 5 of the Box Sets - 1 per continent. The Golden Laminate will win you and a guest an amazing VIP day with Placebo. You'll come to a gig within your country, we'll provide 2 nights accommodation and you'll get to watch the band soundcheck, have dinner with Brian, Stef and Steve at the venue before finally watching the show from side stage...!

okay I didn´t have any opinion for the track when firt listening to it, but after few repetitions i can say I´m starting to be as well upset and disappointed as with Depeche Mode´s new single Wrong...

I don´t know it makes an impression on me as a very positive and vital song, but it reminds me a lot of teir styles and a lot of their fromer songs...so my ears sense it mainly like a mixture of something what has been heard..

On bbc radio 1 website:
It's been a long time since we got a reaction like this for our H.R. Placebo fans have always been passionate and loyal and I reckon we had a planet full of them tuned into Radio 1 tonight for the first play of their new single 'Battle for the Sun'. Placebo have faced many hurdles in their career and re-emerged in 2009 standing talling than ever. This is big, bold, atmospheric music. Brian simply called it 'cinemascope and widescreen technicolour'. And judging from the interview, Brian and the band are exited about the future. We are always excited about the future of music, which is why tomorrow H.R is Empire of the Sun.
