Rulers of the Planet

Rulers of the Planet were an Irish punk-rock band based in Cork circa 2005-2007. They were signed to Sofa Records (Ireland) then German label ZYX.[1]

Their debut album "In 30 Minutes We Destroy the Earth" was received positively by critics (‘Album of the Week’ – Irish Independent, 9/10 – Hot Press).. It led to a worldwide publishing deal with Jewel DC, a publishing company owned by Berlin-based Irish rockstar, Rea Garvey. A second album, "Disco Boogie for Death Rockers," was released in 2007.

Two founder members of the group, Mick Hayes and Niall Lynch, were previously part of 1990s punk-rock band The Shanks (alongside Eoin "Stan" O'Sullivan, who later formed Stanley Super 800).
