An Interview with Stardeath and White Dwarfs's Dennis Coyne It’s a dying star. That’s a weird, some f--ked up name or something. We didn’t know would that meant anything with astrology until we’d start telling people our name and they would come up “Are you guys are into a space and stars” and we’d be like “Yeah man, sure. That sounds good” and since then somebody explained what it was after a while and sort of figured it out. I grew up listening to the Flaming Lips. Our band is —we are close to the Flaming Lips. I’m from Oklahoma City and we worked with them and stuff, and I had always been seeing them as a younger kid and I was going to shows and see them playing. And there was one point where they went away that they didn’t plan any shows for a while and they came back to Oklahoma City, they’re playing the soft — show with the big films and the confetti and everything and it was -- I remember going to that show is the first time I see them in a couple of years. I remember I’ve been right in front because I’d always try to get right in front and it was so loud and it was so cool that I was like “Damn that is really cool”, more people make them do that, besides that I definitely —all time. A couple of the guys were playing other bands, we’re in town and I started trying to put a band together they were all playing other bands and I thought where cool bands, I’ve got to see them, you know it’s kind of slowly one by one and ask them. Because we start off this one and record some music, so I always ask them if they help record and after a while, they would start with the play show and we get some stuff together. Either we start playing along — one of us had a small idea or something and we’re try to get worked out and then we get into trends and we just seem to start recording and then the more we get build up a little bit and it was kind of that. I mean just take to wherever we can and our recording process is never the same, twice it seems like. It seems like its always changing. I never really do its always and sometimes we’re coming with the great songs since you come in with that five seconds so it’s always changing.
