The name Dendraster is also known as the sand dollar and sea biscuit. This animal has a mystical and fanciful side. In the past, it was believed to see stars falling from the sky, and legends tell that Dendraster would lose coins from the Atlantis people.
As one continues their fallen star-like journey –of music with only three pieces which deliver and provide a musical journey that’s magical and alluring (musicians themselves) are influenced by several bands and music genres. Still, in their compositions, they try to forget about everything they hear to reach their own sound identity in their musical world.
Fall Apart provides a fresh, vivid, and alluring release upon the listener’s ears and soul. The recording and production, all done in the duo’s studio, capture and deliver a professional, clear sound.
