Planet Earth

Young And Lost Club band Planet Earth, who have supported Noah And The Whale, Johnny Flynn and Laura Marling, play a sardonic anti-folk sound.

I think it's clear from previous SNAP entries that this column has a penchant for many of the acts released by those lovely folks over at indie label Young And Lost Club, and low and behold, here's another affiliated band today, Planet Earth, who have already supported Noah And The Whale, Johnny Flynn and recent Mercury nominee Laura Marling. Plying a similar anti-folk sound to some of their Y&LC contemporaries, there's a sweetly sardonic humour to their songs, including the excellent 'Cactus' and the Adam Green-aping 'Bergman Movies'. And though both are accompanied by particularly odd pictures on their Myspace (also see the image for 'Castles' regarding this), it's merely a small gripe to get over. See the link below as your starting point.
