Their music is a nice blend of ambient electronica, hip hop, and haunting vocals Les Enfants Terribles

Mad Planet is a Los Angeles based duo made up of Greg Gordon - former drummer for the Fugazi-style punk outfit the Nervous Return and Cooper Gillespie former front woman and bass player for the X-influenced rock band Bang Sugar Bang. Both formed Mad Planet in order to stretch in new directions different from their normal musical styles.

'Love Addicts' was inspired by a friend who was also going through a divorce. According to Cooper, "he described dating as a terrible chore because he was ready to fall in love with any girl who sat in his passenger seat. It didnt matter who it was. He was so used to being with somebody, he was willing to be with anybody."

Mad Planet is currently demo-ing songs for their sophomore album. They plan to release it early next spring. They are also looking forward to touring this summer.
