|Their Planes Will Block Out the Sun combine elements of rock and jazz with dark and uplifting rhythms thrown together with danceable beats to produce their sound. Based out of Jersey City, New Jersey, the line up is John Falcone, (Drums) Victor Fernandes, (Vocals, Guitars, Keyboards) Wayne Green, (Bass, Glockenspiel) Craig Monaco, (Guitar, Keyboards).
Formed in 2005, each band member’s individual musical influences contribute to the band’s sound. When listening to each song, interwoven in the music, you may hear guitars and keyboards influenced by the beauty of Sigur Ros, the pensive feel of Broken Social Scene the escaping mood of Elbow, the rhythms of Frank Zappa, or the dark harmonies of Wayne Shorter; drum beats that are influenced by the polyrhythmic beats of Bill Bruford or the crisp tightness of Steward Copeland; vocal styles with melancholic emotion of Portuguese Fado; and bass lines influenced by the eerie atmospheric sounds of David Lynch and surreal visuals of Terry Gilliam.
