Synopsis

Album Description

After spending nearly one year in the studio the shooting stars ("Newcomer of the Month" of both Orkus and Sonic Seducer music mags) Victor Love, Grace Khold, Alex Vega and Darin Yevonde a.k.a. Dope Stars Inc are back with a brand new masterpiece abounding with intense emotions. How the most general perceptions and ideas may provoke the most fervid emotions is the theme of "Gigahearts": a study of autosuggestion. All or nothing: this can be the absolute love, the love in an empty space. The album burns its complete story in the flames of passion. It is not -like so often- about love driving somebody insane but about insane notions of love. It is loss and desperation, alienation, isolation, loneliness, love and finally death.

CD Reviews

Hi-tech industrial thrash

Mark Carver | China | 04/04/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you took Deathstars, Rob Zombie, NIN, Frontline Assembly, and the Chemical Brothers, threw them all in a bottle and shook vigorously, Dope Stars Inc. would explode out of it. I've been a fan of industrial metal for a long time and this hits the spot like few other artists can. The variety of the songs is icing on the cake- groovin' goth-club dance rock, thundering heavy metal riffs and jackhammer double bass, mournful yet still driving industrial rock ballads, and sweaty sexy club beats. The vocals are raw and mostly sung/yelled, sounding very similar to early Rob Zombie at times, and every instrument is on full throttle. There is a liberal sprinkling of 80's wave hipness and punk rock attitude throughout the album. It's heavily synthesized and effects-laden, ala Celldweller, but not in a way that interrupts the flow of the song. Celldweller sometimes overdoes the effects just to show off, but DSI's traditional and synthesized instruments compliment each other perfectly. If you want to bob your head, shake your booty, mosh in your living room, or ponder futuristic soundscapes, Gigaheartz has everything you want and more. It will get you movin'."
