Don’t look now, but Placebo are celebrating 20 years of bruised knees, empty pill bottles, and brash rock and roll. The enduring British band are capping off their two decades of dirty business with a new retrospective album, A Place For Us To Dream — 20 Years Of Placebo, and today released the collection’s bonus track, a spirited new song called “Jesus’ Son.”
The band writes: “Ladies & Gentlemen, and those of you who find yourselves in between… We are delighted to present the brand new video for ‘Jesus’ Son’ directed by Joe Connor.”

Placebo’s new compilation is out October 7, and comes in various formats, like deluxe vinyl box set and double CD bound-book edition, which is said to include a 32-page case book of “never-before-seen photos curated by Brian Molko and Stefan Olsdal, from throughout the band’s 20 year career.”
