We Come in Pieces [Blu-ray]

As a long-time Placebo fan, I've been waiting for this Blu-ray unpatiently. Mostly, because their latest studio album "Battle for the sun" is a great example of how the band had progressed through the years. Although, if compared with Placebo's outstanding performance in Paris in 2003, this concert somewhat lacks the energy. As far as a track listing goes, I was disappointed that (in my opinion) one of their best song from "Battle for the sun" - "Kings of Medicine" is NOT THERE. C'mmon, guys, how could you!!!! All other hits are on the menu, and some of them ("Meds", for instance) sound very fresh. Another disappointment - new drummer. Don't get me wrong, it seems like he knows what he is doing (and doing a great job, BTW), still, an absence of Hewitt is a real loss. Nevertheless, old tracks sound quite good but not as good as on a "Soulmates Never Die" DVD (live from Paris 2003).I was lucky to see them live in Kansas City at the Beaumont Club in April 2007, and I'd tell you, Placebo - is even better live than on studio albums. Great band that grew with years, songs are more melodic and energetic now, yet somewhat private and romantic (yes, romantic!). As always, Molko's vocal is terrific and lyrics is outstanding!The sound quality on this Blu-ray is a very good (DTS-HD). The Dolby 5.1 surround and stereo mixes are enclosed as well for those of you who don't care about DTS. I do, and think that DTS mix is ALWAYS way better than Dolby 5.1 surround. Reacher, more vivid and brings a real fun to every concert or music clips mixed in DTS.There is a lot of extras on this Blu-ray including 6 live bonus performances from the same world tour of 09-10'.I've really enjoyed this concert and would recommend it to everybody who likes simple but powerful grunge music. Placebo always delivers. Good job!

I just looooooove it!!!! Best shop ever. Ill buy again from TanyaLee

Placebo has always put on the most amazing live shows. Granted I've only seen them live twice but I own other dvds and live cds and they always manage to sound great live. Some bands use lots of props and crap to hide the fact they are terrible live but Placebo has never needed anything more than the music to prove they are a great live band. I recently saw them performing at a club in LA for the new album Loud Like Love and it was such a perfect show. Probably one of the best live bands I have ever seen live and trust me I've been to thousands of shows over the years.

It's a good show besides the sound quality isn't all I expected from a blu-ray. It's a simple show (like "Soulmates never die") but it has meny songs from the "Battle for the sun" album, so it worths the show. It also brings a video from a song not release on the simple edition of "Battle for the sun" and a very good documentary of the bands tour and its new lineup.

A must have for placebo fans. It has a good direction with the photography and it fun to watch the crowd and the band move with the tones

Great value. Bought as a gift for my daughter for Christmas. Package arrived promptly, shrink wrapped like new! Thank you! Would buy from again.

Great concert in general, awesome sound and set!
