PLANES MISTAKEN FOR STARS
“We Ride to Fight! The First Four Years”- No Idea- CD

Planes Mistaken for Stars called it quits earlier in 2008, but they left quite a legacy behind.
We Ride to Fight! is a collection everything recorded by the band in their first four years of existence, sans the Fuck the Fire album. That comes to 24 tracks, pieced together from the entire Self Titled album, Knife in the Marathon, Spearheading the Sin Movement EP, Fucking Fight EP, four Black Flag covers along with all the assorted comp songs and other miscellanea.
This album catalogs the first, most powerful efforts of Planes as they dove headfirst into the realm of post-punk to become of the most beloved bands that always seemed to stay just below radar.
This album is at the same time a good example of what true emo, emotional punk, used to be, while also showing the band’s hardcore side. The Black Flag covers definitely help in the latter part.
Planes is a band that has had a definite influence of current music trends, and this collection is a good way to get a feel for that. It’s a must-have for fans and a you-should-probably-check-this-out for everybody else. (Ryan Brosmer)
