Deadstar Assembly to Creep Out Culture Room

Comments (0) By Courtney Hambright Thursday, Apr 29 2010

The dark circles under Deadstar Assembly's members' eyes either mean they're literally the undead or that they're wearing a ton of makeup to create a calculated effect. For members Dearborn, Dreggs, Mubo, Kriz D.K., and the Dro, aesthetically, at least, the band's self-categorization of "death pop" is an appropriate one. Band photos featuring members sporting the full-on vampire hiss, morose gazes, and the whole "Robert Smith two days after he was hanged and surfaced in a river" look, along with songs titles like "Already Dead" and "Blood Bags," really drive the nail into the coffin.

More About

The poppy metal tunes feature high-speed drumming, thrashing guitars, and more than a touch of industrial synth, which indicates that the dark, heavy rock 'n' roll that emanated from our sunny shores in the early '90s still has a place in the hearts of area bands. Since 2001, when frontman Dearborn started Deadstar Assembly as a solo project, the slickly packaged band has released three albums and two DVDs, one of which shows the members trashing the remains of a ruined hotel and playing with a cockroach.

Upon returning to South Florida from a North American tour, which took the band to Chicago, Philadelphia, and Detroit in support of its third album, Coat of Arms, Deadstar Assembly plays its homecoming CD-release party at Culture Room.
