As gold is for Black Beard, as the pen is for Artzybasheff; such is music's unrelenting pull for the lads Planetarium.
It is in the water they breath and the air they don't. On their minds while jogging with schnauzer-collie mixed breeds and dandi dinmont terriers. In their thoughts during earthquakes in Gainesville Florida and in malt shoppes in Prague. It is even on their minds on Sunday, (a day when traditionally people don't really think about music).
A full time hobby and wayward tack it is their life choice fully committed.
Yet, (as anyone who knows them surely knows), it is also something more. The driving force behind their opulent celestial passions, music is the income of their very subsistence. The rocket fuel in their blood, the butterflies in their guts that keep them afloat in the hardest of times.
The first thing they think about in the morning and the last thing they think about at night, it is the shining nova in an otherwise dull existence of graduand living, vacuous love triangles, and urbane sophistry.
And while admittedly… at first glance, the lads of Planetarium are anything but dithyrambic, after several or so minutes of conversation with any of them, it is impossible not to feel their unitary inrapturation in the melodic arts.
Sure they hold doctorates of the most prestigious degrees in drama, psychology and the like, but their taste for drums and muted strums is all they really care for.
And, while any member of the band could effortlessly solve calculus problems of the most advanced and exigent levels, ask them about their plans for the future, and they are liable to go on for hours (and in the greatest detail) about their plans for future musical purchases.
Cellos,
Pedals
Vibraphone Kettles?
It all seems to me such a waste! Yet that's not the worst of it either...
Ask another member and they will surely say “music is santa’s love made material” Query further and they might mention their unflagging support of obocide!
No matter who you speak to however, the problem is abundantly clear. Bold in the face of the humdrum sameness of mowbray grays, radiant in the face of redundant religions and irrelevant rights, charmingly pulchritudinous in the eyes of the blind: Music is what makes them glow.
Not science, not boating, not wearing a tie, but from out of the grips of the sepia tone drone, it is music that makes the lads come alive!
Hail Planetarium for going your way. though still, I can’t help, but think, what a waste…
furious show last night burn planearium An innovative, ironic igloo of idiosyncrasies. You definitely have what it takes to make it in the ironic indie dance fueled hyperbole of the Toronto music scene. Something to surly to look forward to, keeping it retro and unique at the same time, electric!
also! im a fan of wearing band tee's but you guys dont have any :( so i think im gunna make one online im thinkin a zip up hoodie what do you think i should have on it? im thinkin like a black hoodie with a cartoon zebra on it then like Burn Planetarium in cursive
hey BurnPlanetarium, we hope your having a great summer, we have released 5 tracks that we recorded ourselves and we"ve played a lot of great shows, were hoping you can come out to see us when we play at t he opera house September 11 it will be our biggest show yet with some mad surprises ..
god damn i can't believe i missed out. I'm so sorry.. i just got your comment now. If oyu guys play any more shows put me on your mailing list... NathanielDeshpande@gmail.com Thanks!
Good day, friends. How are all of you? (: I took some pictures up north, I need someone's opinion? (: here they are if you wish to look (: talk soon! - teala.
haha - too being the key word in that sentence. but thanks man, always good to hear someone likes it. it's just weird, i'm sure you know the feeling, when you make a recording, listen to it 6 months later and you're a totally different band. we've written a lot of new (and better) stuff lately, and we totally re-wrote all the songs we have up now. anyway, nice tunes guys! when are you guys playing some local/all ages shows?
Hey guys, we're playing downtown guelph tomorrow in the square at noon if any of you get a chance you should come out and check it out. We'll be playing some stuff off our upcoming album. Love to see some of oyu guys out there. later days!
YES we are. Busy working away like elves. We hope some of you can make it. Well one of you will be there for sure. 52 York is a magic music factory. it breeds genius
Hey Ben! It was nice to finally meet one of you. Hopefully next time we actually have a conversation. If your september 12th show falls on a weekend then I'll probably be in kitchener to catch you guys. Next time you're in toronto you should come over for a game of pictionary :) lainey
A guitar-fuelled crescendo that seamlessly blends indie-rock and angular-riffs of post-punk. Melodic no-holds-barred vocals, colorful hooks and a gritty catchy sound that grabs your ears.
Very lucky! My father told me he'd take me, but did he? nooo.
I am on a great mission, trying to sell my iPod. My father said if I can come up with at least half of the money, he'll pay the other half when I get a new one.
No summer job for me, my parents are telling me to wait until I am 15. They're saying no one will hire me, so I must suffer, moneyless until november. D:
