PLACEBO: ALT.RUSSIA

For the last two decades and since the release of their first studio album, Placebo are established around the world as icons of alternative music and of a dynamic non-mainstream culture that neglects gender, age or rage distinctions. However, when Placebo toured in ten cities throughout Russia, as they approached their 20th anniversary, they traced a truely meaningful alternative counter-culture that had nothing to do with music industry labels. In a universe parallel to an introvert regime that imposes outrageous restrictions to its artists and amid rapid political developments, Placebo guide us in the world of creation.
