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.

Make a Star
Dope Stars Inc. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
never stop - even when sorrow grows
i don't mind - that’s something to die for
and it's mine - I'm asking asking for this
Living forevermore
cause I do wanna be a star
I need to live another day
to stand still waiting for fame
I don't wanna fail
I just wanna feel it now and
make a star out of myself
make a star out of myself
passion grows - Everyday I want more.
i forgot - most of the things I love
but I can't - cannot avoid this world
my own fault - better than waiting for more
i'm craving for this
craving for my life
i cannot lose this chance once again
The lyrics of Dope Stars Inc.'s song "Make a Star" express the desire and passion of an individual to become famous, to live forevermore as a star. The lines "cannot stop-creeping inside my bones" and "never stop-even when sorrow grows" show the unrelenting desire for the ultimate goal of achieving stardom. Fame becomes the utmost priority and the desire to live forever more in the limelight overpowers everything else, as is communicated through the line "Living forevermore cause I do want to be a star." The lyrics also express the idea that achieving fame is not an easy task and may require waiting and standing still for that one big break, but ultimately the reward is worth it, as illustrated through the line "I don't want to fail I just want to feel it now and make a star out of myself."
Moreover, the lyrics also depict the cost of becoming a star. The line "I forgot-most of the things I love" emphasizes the sacrifices that one makes in order to achieve fame. The desire to become famous overshadows everything else, and one is willing to let go of everything else just to achieve that goal. The lyrics reveal the dark side of the entertainment industry, where fame comes with a high price.
Overall, the song is a commentary on the culture of fame and the obsession with achieving it in the modern world. It portrays the cost and the rewards of achieving celebrity status, as well as the desire and passion needed to succeed in the entertainment industry.

I can't even begin to count how many times this song has inspired me to stand up and get back to living my life after setbacks and disappointments. Power to you, guys. Power to you. And I know asking for downloads is in kind of bad taste, but I've been looking for the version of this song that was on the Saw II soundtrack and can't find the song, OR the soundtrack, anywhere. Think anyone can help me out?

Both are sui generis. DSI are Industrial rock / cyber punk. And TBM is synth rock/ goth metal. Two of my all time favorites.
