With lyrics inspired by Cyberpunk imagery and the Cyberpunk subculture, Dope Stars Inc. have been mixing industrial beats, acid synths and distorted sounds with a bratty rock’n’roll sound and attitude since their foundation in May 2003, Italy.
With their debut self-produced EP “10,000 Watts Of Artificial Pleasures” the band caught the interest of the international press and and was quickly signed with Trisol Music Group to release two albums,“Neuromance” (2005) and “Gigahearts” (2006).
Through the years they have infected a horde of loyal fans and spread like a virus over communities and global networks.
The band toured extensively between 2005 and 2008 performing on stages across Europe and supporting bands like London After Midnight, Kirlian Camera, ASP, Apoptygma Berzerk, Nightwish, Combichrist, My Dying Bride, and others. The band also performed at European festivals like Mera Luna, Wave Gotik Treffen, Amphi Festival, Summer Darkness, On A Dark Winter Night, Infest UK, and Trash Fest I & II in Finland. Songs by Dope Stars Inc. also appear on the soundtrack albums of the horror movie saga "Saw".
Their 3rd studio album (upcoming this summer) has been licensed to Trisol Music Group in Europe, Metropolis Records in North American and Subsound Records in Italy. Before it's release an advance EP including 2 tracks from the new album and titled "Criminal Intents / Morning Star - Double Feature EP" will be released on 21st April 2009. After the EP some concert dates are being planned in May and an International Tour will follow after the full length album release.

Chase the Light
Dope Stars Inc. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll start to be so fucking bored
'Cause I can't deal to keep myself
Far away from my own consciousness
That's just a little tip for you
So please don't show me gratitude
It's just about to go ahead
And throw out the shit from your wasted head
You're driving me crazy crazy
Standing out and chasing your own way
Try to find the path of a new day
Don't be out from this
But keep it rolling 'til your life is changing!
Look, what I tried to say, I know
Sounds like an easy way to go
And I will never understand
Why don't you keep staying on your track?
Solutions live inside of you
There's nothing I can ever do
To help you getting over that
Pulling out your mind from this crazy trap
You're driving me crazy crazy
Standing out and chasing your own way
Try to find the path of a new day
Don't be out from this
But keep it rolling 'til your life is changing!
Standing out and chasing your own dreams
Try to find the path of a new breeze
Don't be out from this
But keep it rolling 'til your life is changing!
In the opening lines of Dope Stars Inc.'s song Chase the Light, the singer seems to be expressing boredom with their current state of mind which, from the lyrics, seems like introspection. The singer desires some form of external stimulation that would distract them from their own consciousness. They then proceed to give the listener "a little tip" but does not want any gratitude. The listener is advised to throw out the "shit" from their "wasted head" and "keep it rolling till their life is changing."
The song urges the listener to chase their dreams and pursue a new path in life. The lyrics emphasize that solutions are within the self, and that the listener should find their own way instead of depending on others for help. The singer underscores that they cannot help the listener get over their current situation; the power lies within themselves. The song encourages living life to the fullest and taking risks in the pursuit of one's dreams.
