Hardcore-punk band Planet On A Chain release Culture Of Death LP on Revelation Records

Planet On A Chain is made up of veterans of the punk / hardcore scene dating back to the ‘90s, but isn’t resting on their considerable laurels when it comes to creating explosive new music. Vocalist Dave Ackerman fronted New Jersey's Tear It Up and Dead Nation, and is backed by members of Bay Area, CA, vets from bands like Dead and Gone, Punch, Look Back and Laugh, Talk Is Poison, and many, many more. Today the band release Culture Of Death, their second full-length album on Revelation Records. The record spans twelve tracks that pack a punch with chunky riffs, shout-along vocals, and lyrics that pen an outlet for frustration.

With Planet On A Chain spread across Texas and California, the music for Culture Of Death was tracked, mixed and mastered with Jack Shirley at Atomic Garden (Paint It Black, Deafheaven) in Oakland, CA and vocals where done in Austin, TX with John Petris at Come and Track It studios. The album follows POAC’s 2022 compilation Deprogram and 2023’s Boxed In, building on their urgent and impactful sound. Culture Of Death is hardcore music played by true lifers who never dropped out and returned only to relive past glory, who have continued to push their own creativity and capabilities for multiple decades. It is hardcore music delivered in the early scene's spirit of playing punk music as fast as humanly possible but with eyes kept firmly on the present and future.

The band will celebrate the album release with a string of Northwest shows this weekend, followed by a tour in Europe in June. Dates below
