Good Points

The progression in Brians voice and the general sound. In particular 'My Sweet Prince' and 'Without You I'm Nothing' are highlights.

Bad Points

There is only one bad song- in the form of 'Burger Queen'

General Comments

Placebo's second full-length album, Without You I'm Nothing is the album which shows the band at it's strongest, but seemingly the members at their weakest. Minor chords are often used, creating a melancholy tone which suits the lyrics perfectly,particularly in 'Every You Every Me' with the line "Carve your name into my arm, instead of stressed i lie here charmed'. Still keeping the youth and sarcasm from the self titled debut, but simply making it more of an album than a selection of songs. If 'Placebo' was the sex, 'WYIN' is definitely the morning after.
