Summary: Wonderful!
Review: Anything you ever wanted to know and more on Brian Molko. If you thought you knew enough you'll be surprised to find out that there's more to discover. The upside of this book is that it's well written and makes for an easy read the downside is that you wish that the book was a little more lengthy. But all in all it's enjoyable.

Summary: Not Just for Placebo Fans!
Review: Highly clever! It breaks down the prejudices and so-called "urban legends" that are linked to Brian. It goes behind the screens to mingle through Molko's past, to reveal the truth behind the Placebo-Limp Bizkit "fueds", and demonstrates how a talented man's love for music made him surfrace to the top no matter how many tried to knock him down. An inspiring read for anyone who's ever felt like pursuing a dream and witnessing it unfold before you. Whether you're a Placebo fan or not, this book will make you feel close to Molko and feel respect for him no matter what the media says.

Summary: fantastic

Summary: Interesting....
Review: I'm a recent Placebo fan so I found this book very interesting in displaying the information surrounding the band's lead singer. I found the book to be rather coherent. I also liked the section with the Cult Molko Quotes because they were really funny. I recomend the book, especially if you're a fan.

Summary: A book worth reading!
Review: Informative but fun. This book helps break the clichès surrounding rock's most ambiguous men. It's filled with enough anecdotes to not bore the reader but not too many to overwhelm the reader. Plus the quotes section is filled with Molko's best remarks ever (clever one-liners worth quoting!). The best thing about this book is that it doesn't verge on the negative and at times you feel that the author is merely celebrating the positive qualities of this strange but charismatic icon, that is Brian Molko.

Summary: Well it figures
Review: Placebo may not be one of the hottest bands in America, but they have built quite a fan base in Europe, and why not with rocks most effeminate lead singer. Brian Molko has lead an interesting life and many things the general public think about him are cracked by friends and teachers of this strange man.

Rating:
Summary: Entertaining!
Review: This book gives you a new approach on looking at Brian Molko more as a person than solely as a rockstar. The anecdotes are entertaining and funny. Brian's public caricature is broken and a more realistic guise is witnessed. An amusing read.

Summary: Bruised, Broken, Beautiful
Review: this is a great book with great info about Brian's early years. my only complaint is that this book is so short! i read it in less than a day, because a portion os this book is discography and quotes, so the book's actual text is so short. but overall, i love that i bought this book.
