Darkstar biography (http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=3895)
DARKSTAR is a progressive-metal band formed in Dusseldorf, Germany, in 1996.
The band was formed as a side project for members of PSYCHOTIC WALTZ. During that band's 1991 Europe tour, guitarist Dan Rock and drummer Norm Leggio met German musicians Uwe Osterlehner (DEATHROW) and Siggi Blasey. A good friendship was born and they decided to embark on a recording project together.
The project,(END AMEN) was a short-lived idea. Years later, in 1995, PSYCHOTIC WALTZ once again toured Europe. Dan and Siggi met again and came up with the idea of making an instrumental album.
Pre-production was carried out in Dan's bedroom studio. In Siggi's mini-home studio they would also ellaborate the concepts, sounds, and atmosphere of the album. The real recording started soon after PSYCHOTIC WALTZ tour ended. It was done in an old World-War II bunker in Frankfurt, purchased and transformed into "Castle Of Lords Studio" by Siggi.
"Marching Into Oblivion" was DARKSTAR's first album. A few years later, DARKSTAR would release their secons and last album, "Heart of Darkness", in 1999. PSYCHOTIC WALTZ split-up soon after and so did DARKSTAR. There are no plans for a reunion of either band.
