PLACEBO will be heading to Newport Centre on December 12 to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the release of their platinum selling debut album Placebo.

The band will be undertaking an extensive world tour during the autumn and each show will feature a setlist spanning their whole back catalogue.

Brian Molko teased: “Let's just say there will be songs in the set that I've sworn never to play again. I think it's time that we purposefully acknowledged what a lot of Placebo fans really want to hear.

"They've been very patient with us since we rarely play our most commercially successful material. A 20 year anniversary tour seems like the right time to do so. That's our intention.

"This tour is very much for the fans and a chance for us to revisit a lot of our early material. So, if you want to see us play songs like 'Pure Morning’ and 'Nancy Boy’ which we haven't played in almost ten years and may not play again, then you'd better come along to these shows! We'll have some surprises in there too."
