PLANET is an Australian indie rock outfit hailing from Sydney, emerging in the late 2010s as a key voice in the region's guitar-pop revival. Their sound is a sophisticated blend of 90s Britpop influences, particularly the melodic sensibilities of Oasis and The Stone Roses, and the atmospheric 'jangle' characteristic of contemporary Australian indie.
The band's evolution culminated in their 2022 debut LP, Information Overload, which solidified their identity as purveyors of anthemic, reverb-heavy rock. Critically, they are noted for their high production values and the ability to craft 'timeless' sounding singles that bridge the gap between indie-pop accessibility and alternative rock depth. They occupy a cultural space similar to peers like DMA'S, leaning into a nostalgic suburban aesthetic that resonates with both millennial listeners and a younger Gen Z audience seeking guitar-driven emotional resonance. Their influence web connects back to the melodic guitar traditions of the UK while remaining firmly rooted in the Sydney live scene.
