Star Design and album's name

The star has a connection with the album's name 'superstarved' which designer Craig Wagner created for Gravity Kills's album. The word superstarved is the meaning of starvation which usually refers to the health condition of extreme malnutrition. They got the name 'Superstarved' from a comment on what the band went through changing record labels in between the 2nd and 3rd album.
