Los Planetas

Los Planetas is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Joy Division, Mercury Rev and 107 Faunos.

They run in the same orbit as Triángulo de Amor Bizarro, Love of Lesbian, La Casa Azul, Standstill and Dorian, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Los Piratas, Carolina Durante, Vega, 107 Faunos and La Bien Querida, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 19 connections around Los Planetas, reaching back through Joy Division and forward to Los Piratas.
