Los Planetas is a Spanish indie rock band from the Southern city of Granada, formed in the early-1990s and active through the 2000s, and led by J ('jota': guitar, vocals) and Florent (guitar, moog & synthesizers).

For their third album, Los Planetas returned to a more personal sound: "Una semana en el motor de un autobús" (A week in the engine of a bus, 1998) was their most assertive, aggressive and int
