"Phantom Planet has brought something new to the world that is currently drowned in its share of horrible pop music -- what they have brought is a ray of sunshine, otherwise known as their debut album, "Phantom Planet Is Missing." The music is obviously influenced by classic bands, including The Beatles and The Beach Boys. Songs like "So I Fall Again" and "The Local Black And Red" can be described only as perfect melodic rock. This CD is true ear candy -- sweet, smooth, and satisfying ... ideal in every way."
Phantom Planet Is Here

"Phantom Planet came to me by surprise. After listening to their music and their lyrics, it brought a different sound that doesn't exist in mainstream music. It has a 60s and 70s brit/rock feel...it's like they brought back that era when I was listening to this album. It seemed like the lyrics to these songs are journal entries, and are so poetic. It's better than the rock-rap combo these days. Songs like "Recently Distressed" and "So I Fall Again" are real and personal.
Phantom Planet, thank you for making rock music good!"
This CD is AWESOME!

"Just bought this album and I can't stop listenting to it. Alex's vocals pull you into each song and leave you wanting more. I can't wait to see this band live! Keep up the great work Phantom Planet."
Silverlake doesn't get it.

"This is a band that is so huge live. I saw them last night and went online to buy more of their music. I actually went to the show to see a different band, and had no idea of who Phantom was. Believe me, they rocked. I bought an album at the show and have yet to stop listening to it. Plus they hung out while the other band was playing and were very friendly. If you know music, or are a musician, you will more than appreciate this band. If you dig these guys, check out MUSE they have similar vocal stylings and the same raw power."
