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.

Save the Clock Tower
Dope Stars Inc. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Across the time to change our future
We can repair the glitches
Of superstrings
A 4 dimension switch like another
88 mph
To activate the flux cap device
Paradox flip
We end to fall in bed with our mother
The lyrics of Dope Stars Inc.'s "Save the Clock Tower" are cryptic but seem to reference the 1985 blockbuster film "Back to the Future." The song describes people traveling across time to change their future, which could be a nod to the film's plot in which the singer Marty McFly travels back in time to prevent his parents from meeting and changing his future. The lyrics suggest that the group could repair the "glitches of superstrings," which may refer to string theory and the possibility of manipulating the fabric of space-time.
The mention of an "88 mph" speed limit also alludes to "Back to the Future." This was the speed required for the DeLorean time machine in the film to activate its "flux capacitor." The lyrics also mention an "experimental trip" and "paradox flip," which could signify the dangers of time travel and the potential for unintended consequences.
The final line of the song, "We end to fall in bed with our mother," is a reference to a scene in "Back to the Future" where Marty accidentally attracts the romantic attention of his own mother in the past. The line is meant to be humorous and adds to the overall playful tone of the song.
