Deathstars is a Swedish industrial gothic metal band. It was formed in 2000 in Stockholm, Sweden. The band consists of Whiplasher Bernadotte (vocals; born Andreas Bergh in 1977), Nightmare Industries (guitar, keyboards; born Emil Nodtveidt in 1976), Cat Casino (guitar; born Eric Backman in 1988), Skinny Disco (bass; born Jonas Kangur in 1979), and Bone W Machine (drums; born Ole Ohman in 1973). Nightmare Industries and Bone W Machine had been members of the heavy metal band Swordmaster before they created Deathstars. This band was formed in 1993. Deathstars made their first album in 2002. It was named Synthetic Generation and was recorded on the label LED Recordings. It was fairly successful for an independent label release. This success made them deal with the European division of one of the world`s most prominent metal labels - Nuclear Blast. Deathstars` second album, Termination Bliss (2006), was also a minor hit. This album was recorded in their own studio. The band was chosen to support black metal heavyweight Cradle of Filth on their 2006 tour of Europe. The follow-up album, Night Electric Night (2009), was far and away Deathstars` biggest success to date, reaching the Top Ten in Sweden and charting in several other European countries.
