Planks was a German band known for their forays into the darkly atmospheric realms of sludge, post-metal, and hardcore punk. The sound they crafted was often described as brooding and deeply emotive, marked by sombre melodies, aggressive riffing, and a heavy, pervasive sense of melancholy. Their musical journey spanned from 2007 to 2014, during which they released a string of impactful records.
The band's final album, "Perished Bodies," released in 2014, was a testament to their evolution and a culmination of their darkly poetic sound. It showcased a matured approach to songwriting, richer in texture and complexity. Preceding this, the 2012 offering "Funeral Mouth" carved its niche with its blend of post-metal expansiveness and visceral hardcore energy. The aggressive and unyielding "The Darkest of Grays" paired with the "Solicit to Fall" EP, both released in 2010, further cemented Planks' status as a formidable force in the underground music scene, pushing the boundaries of heavy music and leaving a lasting legacy in their wake.
