Phantom Planet

Phantom Planet is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of The Hives, American Hi-Fi, Maroon 5, Ludacris and Panic! at the Disco. Those roots explain a lot about how Phantom Planet arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as The Format, OK Go, Guster, The Like and The Young Veins, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Coconut Records, The Young Veins, The Like, Maroon 5 and Miniature Tigers, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 59 connections around Phantom Planet, reaching back through The Hives and forward to Coconut Records.
