about

Imagine this: The night is cold but you dressed to kill. Society's heroes are villains and you are dancing among them. You are having a great time; a time filled with drinks, drugs, and disco. This is the American Dream, framed in neon and smoke.

DOT. Records is proud to release The Apollo Era’s raw and stylish sophomore album, Blackout ‘77, on cassette.

Inspired by hard times and harder partying, the underground disco kings document the high times of living fast and the crashes that follow soon after. With sweeping disco beats, funky bass-lines, and aggressive swagger, The Apollo Era lays down an unforgettable album that will get you dancing. Lyrics trace a life laden with spontaneous actions, sudden riches and quick pleasures, showcasing the American Dream, only to wake up and to yearn for the dream to return. Sometimes brash, sometimes dreamy, The Apollo Era’s Blackout ‘77 is an all out celebration to the best of times and the worst of times in the 2nd Gilded Age. Cheers to that!
