Disco Inferno – The Long Dance
Biography
Essex, UK (late 1980s – 1996)
After the departure of Gish (who would later join Bark Psychosis) the three-piece Disco Inferno recorded the single ‘Entertainment’ with producer Charlie McIntosh. Their first album, Open Doors, Closed Windows, was released in 1991 on Che and received positive reviews … , although most mentioned the heavy influence of late 1970s post punk bands, particularly Joy Division and Wire (In fact Disco Inferno’s manager, Michael Collins, had previously managed Wire during their 70’s incarnation). ‘Entertainment’, ‘Open Doors, Closed Windows’ and the ‘Science’ EP would later be collected on the album In Debt.
In 1992 the band released Summer’s Last Sound, widely regarded as the first in a run of classic Disco Inferno EPs which saw the band’s increasing use of samples. The band’s use of sampling combined with traditional instruments - particularly Wilmott’s bass - continued on the EPs A Rock to Cling To and The Last Dance and reached its peak on their second album D.i. Go Pop. After the full-on assault of D.I. Go Pop the band opted for restraint on the beautiful Second Language EP which also had a new-found optimism in Crause’s lyrics.

Recently started really listening to these guys. So ahead of their time and yet so unrecognized... Definitely a new fav band of mine. Sad to see they didn't sell all that well and broke up awhile ago.

And I'm saying "I never thought it would be possible", because I loved them from the very first moment in which I discovered them

I never thought it would be possible, but the more time passes, the more I like them. Each time I listen to their albums, they're almost like new to me...
