Plan 9 is an American neo-psychedelic band from Rhode Island formed in 1979.
Taking their name from the now infamous Edward D. Wood, Jr's film "Plan 9 From Outer Space", the fledgling band of John DeVault, Holly Scanlon, Mike Meehan, John Florence, Debora DeMarco, Eric Stumpo, Tom Champlin, Eric Vandelin, Evan Williams and Mike Ripa helped create the wall of guitar sound which became indicative of Plan 9. 1981 saw the release of the first single ("Can't Stand This Love, Goodbye") ...quickly followed by the "Frustration" EP on Greg Shaw's Voxx label. Then a full length album, "Dealing with the Dead" was released in 1983 on Midnight Records, sporting full color fluorescent artwork and cool comic insert by artist RK Sloane. The band was nominated in 1983 for the CMJ Future Artists Music Award. "Five Years Ahead Of My Time" was released as a double A-sided 45, followed by a self-titled album of rarities and additional tracks from the Dealing with the Dead sessions on European label New Rose. "Midnight's Christmas Mass" LP included Eric's wonderful "Merry Christmas" track. Then "I've Just Killed A Man, I Don't Want To See Any Meat" LP was recorded live for Midnight, after which the band signed with Enigma Records and its new creation Pink Dust.
Eric, Debora, Brent Hosier, Evan Williams, Brian Thomas, Tom, Evan Laboissonniere, John F, Don Fogarty, Mike Jacobs & the late great Cub Koda then settled in for "Keep Your Cool And Read The Rules" LP. The title track became a film featuring Al-x Nagle, which recently received its final edit by John DeVault...
"Anytime, Anyplace, Anywhere" saw the band rework a 1956 recording originally put out there by Uncle Bobby Carl & The Blendaires, and featured the gnarly vocals of Reid Paley and sweet backup from Tanya Donnelly. Then came a jazz-psych piece ("Sea Hunt" LP), the imaginary soundtrack, which featured sister Becky (Sturdivant), Eric, Debora, John F, Evan W, Tom, and Frank Villani, recorded in Texas.
"Ham & Sam Jammin" featured Mr Paul Everett on vocals, Eric, Debora, John F, Frank V, Kevin Fallon, Julius Borges, Marsharam Heller, Carey Monserrate, Hugh Everett and the spirit of Ben McLelland, engineered by Paul Kolderie. A video for the track Mambo Night, by indie film guru Jon Moritsugu, briefly flirted with the MTV audience...
The early 1990's brought "Around The USA" 45 and "Stock Footage" CD, the latter being a compilation of music from films by Roger Corman. A late 1990's release on J-Bird records ("Pleasure Farm") featured Eric, Debora, Evan L, Tom, Roger Vaughan, Steven Anderson and Kevin Fallon.
"Nine Mens Misery" was an improvisational score for a documentary film by Victor Franko about the Narragansett Indians winning a battle at a big rock in Cumberland RI. More improv followed with "The Gathering" CD and then Trance-e-dellic met Country in the shape of the "Cow Town" CD featuring Eric, Debora, Frank, Ben, Tom Carmody and Dana Maguire, engineered by Frank Villani.
Plan 9 provided a musical backdrop to Melissa Emma's spoken word which brought forth the CD "Sour Tongue Readings - No Spitting" in 2002. The band then recorded an infomercial for Bob Fagan (Bright Pictures NYC) for Mage Knight.
The band is currently preparing a new release, tentatively entitled "HEADS"...so many involved.
