Astra* is a Russian rock band formed in 2007 in Moscow by lead vocalist Lunk (Roman, dr. Stylus), guitarist Andrey and ex-bass player Andrey Antipov. Nikolay (drums) became a member later with a little help from ex-bassist, who told him "about that new band". Floating through the psychedelic chaos of sound, astra* smoothly became more oriented on a poprock line, but not totally got rid of that early dreamy experience.
