Planeside may very well be the most infamous band you've never really heard. YES, it's true…The band members, Dave Harris (throat), Kenzaburo Hirasaki (boom) and Craig Sala (skins), are no strangers to hard work and foul play. Self professed to be fueled by caffeine, cigarettes and good scotch, this is a band dedicated to putting themselves out on a limb and turning it up louder…even if it costs a night in the slammer. The relentless east coast trio has been sweating it out for the band's entire 60-month existence, continuing to do what they do best – deliver a devastatingly high-octane live assault, night after night to any conceivable venue that will book them. They have played well over 500 shows. (Craig & Ken have been together since the mid-90's playing over 1000 gigs as a rhythm section!) Over the past few years alone, Planeside has played every shit hole this side of the Mississippi (and the other side too), swapping spit with the likes of Queens of the Stone Age, The Strokes, Death From Above 1979, Helmet and The Used.
The essential formula -- a manic combustion of good old American rock n' roll and an underlying hip hugging groove, played with punk ferocity that will leave the hair standing on the back of your ass! The band's raw sound is turbulent yet sleek, and seems to reflect every aspect of Americana they've collided with amidst their journeys…even if they can't remember them.
Under the Exotic Recordings and Surreal Records imprints, Planeside has cataloged a three-song demo, a 7" split-single, a self-titled EP, 2 full length albums and just gave sonic birth to another EP recorded with Jonathan Wyman called ‘Under the Circumstances, It’s Not Such a Bad Idea’. The anticipated follow up to their 2006 release ‘MILK’, - ‘Under the Circumstances…’ is a fine collection of 6 songs that you’ll be singing along to with all of your little hearts.
It even features a guest vocal appearance by Rustic Overtones/Paranoid Social Club frontman, Dave Gutter.
Keep your eyes, ears and mouth open, as Planeside continues to hit the road (& the Studio!) in 2009.
