With their 20th anniversary getting closer and closer, Placebo are back in our lives with an exclusive MTV Unplugged session and we're massively excited.

After seven studio albums, five of which have topped the German album charts, more than 12 million album sales and monumental 18-month long tours, you have to forgive them for dropping off the radar a bit of late.

Exclusiveto MTV, we have performances of 'Meds' and 'Bitter End' to get you ready for the main event this evening. Be sure to check them out.

This new MTV Unplugged session is a rejuvenation for Placebo, with frontman Brian Molko describing it as "equally exciting for usand the audience."

He added: "We wanted to do something extraordinary, something that would challenge us. The process has been interesting, because we were creating something while we were performing it. That was something we had never done before. The simultaneity of the performance and the creation process was completely new for us."

The CD and DVD of this special performance areout now and you can catch the whole show tonight at 9pm, only on MTV Live.
