NE Performer – “Planetoid are amazingly tight musicians with interesting riffs and catchy grunge-metal… Planetoid is a must-see band. Catch em’ before their return to whatever stoner-rock planet they came from.”
The Noise – “The music is a blend of the best sci-fi rock you'll find this side of the Orion nebula. While there's plenty of homage to the alien-demon gods in their music, there's plenty of mortal music influences like AC/DC and Black Sabbath as well.”
Playgroundboston.com – “Their musical ability is as solid as it gets! Planetoid has a psychedelic sound with elements of metal, grunge, and stoner-rock thrown in, sort of like an extremely pissed-off Queens of the Stone Age if they formed back in the 70’s.”
Stonerrock.com – “The rhythm section is tight and grooves well, the guitarist can rip it up when need be, and the lyrics possess that clever wit that a lot of bands attempt and fall flat on their faces.”
The Noise 2 – “It sort of puts me in mind of what Frodo and the boys might punch into the jukebox when J.R.R. Tolkien isn’t looking.”
Progression Magazine - " ...Planetoid scores its Michael Moorcock/Marvel Comics/Heavy Metal inspired mini-epics with evil-flatted fifth riffs of destruction that have traveled in time from the ‘70s to mess up your mind... How these guys (droids?) get my vote is by doffing the dry, detuned block-chord monotones used by most contemporary heavy acts, and by bringing back some real emotion to classic retro-approved licks."
Our mission: to enslave the human race with our transmissions of face-melting rock. In the wake of an intergalactic war, the likes of which this universe has never seen, we have been cast backwards in time from the year 3032. Marooned on this accursed planet known as Earth, we have taken on the guise of the most highly respected and influential force this world has ever known: That of a rock & roll band.
Bludgeoning the drums with mechanical fury is Admiral Time: A cybernetic
organism so technologically advanced he is able to bend the very fabric of the
universe by force of will alone.
Incinerating the electric guitar is General Ovatus Talieah: A plant-based creature single-handedly responsible for the genocide of countless organisms throughout the known universes.
And finally, Locrius. Master of the bass-time continuum, preacher of Church of the Overdrive. A dread-goblin assassin turned demagogue, capable of shifting phase between dimensions and controlling the minds of his victims with but a word.
Together we have forged a ghastly tribunal of evil geniuses, war criminals, and abominations. The only proof of our existence lies in the testimonials of the few who have survived our live performances.
All who stand opposed will be destroyed.
