First video from Planet B album

Posted by Loren on October 21, 2018

Planet B has released the first video from their upcoming self-titled album, which sees its release on Nov. 23 on Ipecac Recordings.

Check out "Crustfund," featuring Kool Keith here:

Comprised of Justin Pearson and Luke Henshaw the project is described as as follows: "Pearson's poetic aggression melds with Luke Henshaw's wildly creative beats in a new sound mixing hardcore punk, hip-hop, industrial, horror-movie scores, and more – a sound potentially as relevant to fans of artists like Death Grips, Ho99o9, and Lil Ugly Mane, as to fans of Pearson's past work."

Other artists to appear on the album include, Martin Atkins (Ministry, Killing Joke, Pigface), Nick Zinner (Yeah Yeah Yeahs), Sonny Kay (Year Future, The VSS), and more.

There … Read more
