The Planet The

Hailing from Portland, OR, the Planet The primarily play guitar- and synth-driven math rock that has some elements in common with new wave progenitors Devo and Pere Ubu. The trio of Charles Salas-Humara, Dave Huebner, and Charles Matze became a staple of the local Portland scene before releasing their 2003 debut, Physical Angel. Two years later their sophomore release, You Absorb My Vision, was released by Kill Rock Stars sister label 5 Rue Christine.
