Deadstar Assembly

For a growing legion of alienated youth looking for relief from commodified hipness, insearch of a voice that won’t be co-opted by Volkswagen, a teen-angst anthem that doesn’t sell product, Deadstar Assembly is a twisted savior. They are an explosive exploration in aural alchemy; sonic salvation that is equal parts dark, metallic dissonance, early 80’s synth-pop, crushing percussive rhythm, and trance-progressive techno bombast. A genre-bending juggernaut poised to be respected by disillusioned youth and emulated by future artists.
