Analysis and Explanation

Dead Star made its live debut October 2001 alongside In Your World and made regular appearances for the rest of the year. When In Your World was abandoned half way through 2002, Dead Star continued to be performed at most concerts. The first performances of Dead Star in October 2001 have a slightly different ending riff (just after the last chorus) at least before the Nancy show.

After not being played in 2003, the song returned in February 2004 and it continued to make somewhat regular appearances until the end of the year when it was once again dropped from setlists. Interestingly Dead Star was soundchecked at a November 2006 gig but it was not performed. The song finally returned for the first time in 4 years in 2008 and was performed at the majority of gigs that year.

Since then Dead Star has been a setlist anomaly, only making rare appearances in tours since. For it's two appearances during The Resistance tour, Dead Star was merged with Micro Cuts (the outro of Micro Cuts was played instead of the outro of Dead Star). This version was nicknamed 'Dead Cuts' by fans. Again in 2013, Dead Star made a series of scattered performances including at the famous Tokyo Zepp performance. After being performed once during the March 2015 Psycho UK Tour, Dead Star would only be performed at Download Festival 2015 for the remainder of the Drones tour.

Dead Star was a setlist option for the 2017 Shepherd's Bush Empire by-request show and was played at there. It also made the top 10 for the 2018 La Cigale by-request show, but it wasn't performed for unknown reasons. A shortened version was included as part of the Metal medley at the Royal Albert Hall gig later that year, but strangely it wasn't included in any subsequent performances of the Medley. It's unknown when the band will play the song again, though it's likely to reappear at some point.
