Planes Mistaken For Stars - Do You Still Love Me (TBA) Album

PMFS: 25 Years of Abrupt Realizations — Planes Mistaken For Stars

When the pandemic hit, Gared and Neil holed up together in isolation at Gared’s house in Peoria, workshopping dozens of new songs of varying styles . . . some of which would become material for the next Planes record. Then the world truly came crashing down.

Even while fighting stage 3 esophageal cancer, Gared pushed hard to complete one more record. Planes entered the studio (again with Sanford Parker) near the end of 2020. The band prioritized Gared’s vocals and guitar parts — he was already weak from chemo, and no one knew what the radiation would do to his vocals. By the time they were ready to mix, Gared was processing his own mortality. And on November 24, 2021, this charismatic force of a human succumbed to the cancer — a dreadful shockwave still ripping through the fabric of space-time.

Now he is gone and the void is deafening. But Do You Still Love Me? is not the last will and testament of Gared O’Donnell — nor Planes Mistaken for Stars. Because their spirit lives inside all the bands they played with, on the arms of fans with tattooed skulls and lyrics, and within the lives they touched, whether for one night or many.
