DISCO DISASTER is the project-band to recreate one of the most dynamic and exciting moments in music. The late 70s and dawning 80s period has often been misunderstood and overshadowed by the punk rock era, yet for many it was the point where the most innovative ideas of the 1970s collided to create a new set of possibilities; a fusion of punk, glam, art-rock, disco, synthesizers and experimentalism. DISCO DISASTER celebrating early 80s synthesizer pop, and intense, politicised readings of the monochromatic, sloganeering post-punk scene, but as to date none have expressed the real atmosphere of 1978 - 1980.
As for the music, DISCO DISASTER brings together some of the most inspiring songs and artists of the period. Punks were tearing up their own rulebook and trying new things, the gender identity thing was going on around the music: boys looking like girls; girls looking like boys. Everything was in a state of transition.....Retro Synthpop '80
