The 2027 Orbea Oiz just dropped, and it's the most capable Oiz ever built.
Three years of World Cup development. A completely redesigned carbon frame. 36% stiffer. Lightest they've ever made. And geometry that finally lets an XC bike handle the way modern trails demand.

Willy Paul’s hit song “Lala Salama” is trending again 13 years later, with Kenyans using it in nostalgic videos and remembering his prime Pozze era. Fans are now calling for a solo concert where he can perform his classic hits.

28 years of Without You I’m Nothing 🖤
Go on, try picking just ONE song from this album. I dare you!
And If you could only quote one line, which would it be?

Placebo’s second studio album, ‘Without You I’m Nothing’, a timeless alternative rock classic, was released on 12 October 1998 and reached No. 7 on the UK Albums Chart.

If Placebo's self-titled debut was the night before, Without You I'm Nothing is the morning after. Whereas their first singles swaggered with libidinous confidence, the songs on Without You reek of self-loathing, guilt, and shame.

“By the time that we came off tour, I was in such a fragile emotional state that I ended up on anti-depressants. I was just fucked up. I'd taken my soul through the blender, and I really just didn't know who I was anymore. I was disgusted with myself.”

But adversity has always been an engine of creativity. After coming off the road, the band locked themselves into a subterranean room with no windows for two months and wrote the new record.

“We had to do a lot of soul-searching. We had to really look inside of ourselves and... realise what we had done. I think there's a lot of guilt on that record, and it talks about a few relationships that I had which I think that I basically did my best to ruin but I didn't know any better at the time. It's a very heartbroken album.”

Looking back at Without You I'm Nothing 28 years later, the album was a major building block in shaping Placebo into the band we know today.

The iconic yellow cover of WYIN was designed by English photographer Corinne Day. It features sisters Sarah and Sally sitting at a table, gazing down. The soft light filtering through the curtains creates a warm yellow hue that defines the album's aesthetic.
