They're an alternative/arthouse/rock band.
There are 3 members:
Brian Molko-Lead singer, guitar, bass, keyboard.-Half British and Half american.
Stefan Olsdal- Bassist, Guitarist, Keyboard, Piano.- Swedish.
Steve Hewitt- Drums,percussion- British.
Formed in 1994, there first self-titled album came out in 96.
Robert Shultzberg and Steve Hewitt were alternating the spot because Steve had a side-band. Shultzberg left after the first album and Steve became the permanent drummer.
Their 2nd album was titled 'Without You Im Nothing' which came out in 98.
3rd album was called Black Market Music.-2000
Their 4th album came out in 2003 and was called 'Sleeping With Ghosts'.
And just recently in March their 5th album called 'MEDS' was released.
Quite contoversial at times.
Brian was very criticised early in his carrer for being a cross-dressing Bi-sexual-heavy drinker who spoke his mind. His voice though is one of the best Ive ever heard.Its very unique.
They have left those so called 'Nancy Boy' days behind them now.
They are different in some ways though.
Brian is Bi-Sexual and has just had a kid fairly recently.
Stefan is Gay.
Steve is straight.
Brian-34 yrs old
Stefan-32
Steve-35
Brian and Stefan can also speak French, Spanish and a little German.
Thats pretty much all you need to know about them.
I would highly recommend them.
They are a very special band and awsome people.
