3.0 good | Jared Floryan | June 9th 15 | Although the influence Rammstein - and to some out there, KMFDM - has on this band's first full-length album Synthetic Generation is quite obvious, Swedish industrial metal group Deathstars have quite the likeable musical style to share with the robotic masses and their half-breed servants. This is instrumentally vicious, but not too angry enough to alienate those who have just recently found peace in attending rave parties, and the vocals courtesy of Andreas Bergh are silky smooth. The Gothic-oriented character of the keyboard sections occasionally gives the record that darkly playful flavor. Synthetic Generation is somewhat tepid at times, but the offering is mostly well-done and values fun over contrived melodrama.

3.5 great | mkamrass | July 23rd 13 | For Deathstars debut album, "Synthetic Generation" is not half bad, they mix industrial metal and metal well together, while adding some electronic and dance elements to the album as well. Even though they are not a German band, Deathstars could easily fit in the Neue Deutsche Harte genre of music. They still have a pretty original sound also. Occasionally the vocals on the album can be dull, but they are good for the most part. Still, very good release.
