PLANET OF THE 8s
release collaborative EP
“Lagrange Point Vol I”
.
.
In celestial mechanics, Lagrange points Points are positions in space where the gravitational forces of a two-body system, like a star and its orbiting planet, produce enhanced regions of attraction and repulsion. Much like the interaction between two people making music together: the push and the pull of the creative process resolves itself at specific points. These are the meeting places of the mind. This is where nothing springs into being. This is the essence of the universe and where Planet of the 8s have taken influence for the creation of their new collaborative project “Lagrange Point Vol I”—bringing together some of Australia’s finest vocalists from the stoner scene, including King Carrot (Death By Carrot), Diesel Doleman (Duneeater), Jimi Coelli (A Gazillion Angry Mexicans, Sheriff) and Georgie Cosson (Kitchen Witch). Planet of the 8s “Lagrange Point Vol I” is a doomy, stoner rock voyage entwined with an eclectic range of stunning vocal performances, with the ambience and impact creating the perfect soundtrack to set the mind free while venturing the desert. If riffs and melody are what you’re after, this is the place.

The geometry of the five Lagrange points anchors the cover art and is embellished by Artofmaquenda’s interpretation of the wolf as some kind of creative earth mother, the many hands passing blood to flesh, meditating on the pain of birth and creation, and the insights gained therein. With the foundations of the songs salvaged from a bunch of discarded tracks, remnants of pre-production from their previous album. “Lagrange Point Vol I” has evolved into a release that stands up on its own – diverse yet uncannily cohesive. More than just a side project, it embodies the very essence of what Planet of the 8s is about: the bringing together of minds, bodies and souls to create and experience. something that never existed before. Planet of the 8s “Lagrange point Vol I” will be available to stream from August 18th across all major platforms.

AMNPLIFY – DBA
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
