About this album

Without You I’m Nothing is Placebo’s breakthrough album, sharpening their mix of glam bite, bruised emotion and alternative rock heft into a record that reached a far wider audience. Released in 1998, it followed the band’s self-titled debut and helped define their image and sound through Brian Molko’s androgynous vocal style, hook-heavy guitars and lyrics steeped in alienation and desire. Pure Morning and Every You Every Me became signature songs, while the title track, enhanced by David Bowie’s guest vocal, underlined the album’s stature. Its critical profile and lasting fan base made it one of the key British rock albums of the late 1990s.
