Mike Hammer: PLANES MISTAKEN FOR STARS

I'm not sure if I like the bands music or not, but it was in interesting interview!

the fact that they are peoria just makes them fucking aces i think -- go central IL!

Awwww PMFS. I remember moving to Portland around 5 years ago and hearing about them. I would walk around rainy portland and listen to PMFS allll the time. I would leave on late night walks around Goose Hollow just for an excuse to listen to them loud.

And of course, everytime they've been to Portland in the last 5 years, I've missed it. Usually they jump ship on the tours they're opening before they make it here. But, next time fuckers.

I can't say enough great stuff about this band. Great work ethic, tireless effort to make good music, and they get nakey sometimes and let their wangs flop around.

PS: The new record is just as flawless as knife in the marathon. What a great great record!!!!

Being a Denver-ite, I must say that I fucking love Planes-- with more fervor than all the other local bands combined.

Thanks to them for dropping off the European Converge tour and giving their spot to a more deserving band.



No disrespect to PMFS. But why did they drop off the tour?

i knew the reason last week
but i forget exactly

some kind of health or other internal concern
for PMFS
caused them to drop off

i never met these guys. but i can say that the lead singer should leave his shirt on when he plays. just some friendly criticism.

I've liked them for a few years, but I rediscovered them right before Up In Them Guts. I'd just made a mix cd with like 6 of their songs on it, and walk into a local record shop and there's PMFS sitting with the new shit. I was like "Holy fuck!" and bought it right there.

That album is just ridiculously good. Frighteningly good.

Thanks for the introduction. I just bought Knife In The Marathon and will pick up the new record post haste.

one of my favorite bands. they put on a great show.

I think one of the first songs i like of them was "Copper and Stars"... the energy in it is awesome
