Review:
Hailing from Italy, Death Disco describe themselves as “music concerning dark atmospheres although rarely melancholic,” and this is demonstrated by “The Proof.” Most of this track is bass heavy, á la Peter Hook while the guitar is sparingly used throughout. The pre chorus, chorus and post chorus have the guitar veering between melodic riffage and balls to the wall power chords while the drums circle a very familiar beat. The vocals are all in English and sound no different to any Anglo-American band, giving Death Disco a wider appeal than just in their native Italy. The music is not too heavy or dark, just as their claim suggests but there is an atmosphere to this song that transcends normal UK indie pop and most of the American stuff too, placing Death Disco firmly in the 80’s indie rock style (The Smiths et al).
Overall, a good track by Death Disco. Mixed well and well balanced throughout, there are no faults. It would be good to see if they can step it up a gear and really go for the jugular, but this is a good ease into their sound. - SCREAMLITE RECORDS

Bio
Death Disco formed in middle 2009 when songwriter Dandy Fix met punk oriented guitar player Stefano Cipolla.
A few days later synth player Daniele Bosticco joined the two.
The line-up was completed afterward with the arrival of the bass player Enzo Morreale and the drummer Andrea Cilano.
In late 2009 the band released their first EP titled “Disconnected”, an 8 songs mini-LP selfproduced.
The band's name comes from the PIL song "Swan Lake" but many influences can be found in our songs from The Cure to Jesus and Mary Chains, from Joy Division to Pixies.
