$40.00

Originally released in 2000, Black Market Music is the powerful third studio album from British alternative rock icons Placebo, fronted by the unmistakable Brian Molko.

Blending dark alternative rock, distorted guitars, electronic influences and emotionally charged vocals, Black Market Music captures the band's signature mix of raw energy, atmospheric melodies and provocative songwriting.

Featuring standout tracks such as "Taste in Men", "Special K", "Slave to the Wage" and "Black-Eyed", the album delivers a compelling mix of driving rock anthems, haunting melodies and experimental sounds.

Exploring themes of relationships, alienation, addiction and modern society, Black Market Music showcases Placebo's evolution into a darker, more adventurous sound while retaining their distinctive alternative rock attitude.
