About This Album
Just before embarking on the Projekt Revolution Tour (with Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday, and HiM) Placebo released Extended Play '07 as an attempt to win over a younger audience. This disc features five of their classics alongside three unreleased live tracks, including a rarely performed stage rendition of their late-'90s college radio anthem "Pure Morning" which you may recall from the memorably sophomoric chorus, "a friend in need's a friend indeed, a friend with weed is better." If that still doesn't ring a bell, then this disc will serve as a pretty decent taster-plate to the alt rock of Placebo, but after a full decade of music, this hardly serves as a full overview of their work. It sufficiently provides a basic idea of the band's music for the completely unfamiliar, and it could likely help convert a new generation of fans, but considering the short running time, hopefully copies of this record are inexpensive. For those who already like the band, a more worthwhile investment is the Once More with Feeling: Singles 1996-2004. ~ Jason Lymangrover, All Music Guide
