planets

Hyper-kinetic bass and drums duo delivering jagged, stop-start math rock. It is a high-wire act of rhythmic precision and noisy, playful aggression.

Intro

Imagine a conversation between a drum kit and a bass guitar where both are trying to finish each other's sentences at double speed. Planets strips away the fluff of traditional rock, leaving only the skeletal, muscular core of rhythm and low-end melody. It is music that feels like it is constantly tripping over its own feet only to land in a perfect, synchronized pose every single time.

What makes them stand out is the sheer density they achieve with only two people. The bass is not just a foundation; it is a lead instrument, distorted and nimble, while the drumming is a masterclass in controlled chaos. They occupy the 'maze rock' niche, where every song is a puzzle of shifting time signatures and sudden silences that demand your full attention.

Start with 'Turbo Jamz' for a concentrated dose of their high-energy philosophy. It is the perfect entry point for anyone who finds standard indie rock too predictable and wants something that feels like a rhythmic obstacle course.
