Physical Angel

The Planet The delivers an album of dance-punk-prog for the injured and the infirm. Difficult to pigeonhole, The Planet The's sound shifts musical gears frantically, and the songs start, go, and end where the band wants them, without regard for convention or fashion. Spastic and fractured one moment, mechanistic and pummeling the next, their tightly-coiled, bipolar sounds recall Liquid Liquid, early-Talk Talk, This Heat, Ex Models, Dance Disaster Movement, Brainiac, and yes, Devo. "Portland's best situationist prog rockers" --The Portland Mercury
