The Blackout
Band, 2003-2015 GB, Merthyr Tydfil
Rock and Alternative
Post-hardcore band from Merthyr Tydfil, Wales, formed in 2003. They released an EP entitled 'The Blackout! The Blackout! The Blackout!' in 2006 (which earned them a nomination for Kerrang's Best Newcomer) and followed this with their debut album 'We Are The Dynamite!' in 2007 (which at the time was Fierce Panda's fastest selling record) and a second album 'The Best In Town' in 2009. The group were originally called 'Ten Minute Preview', they took their new name from a tee shirt slogan 'I Survived The Blackout (a reference to the New York blackout of 1977). They are only the third unsigned band to sell out the London Astoria, the previous two being The Darkness and Enter Shikari. The band split from Fierce Panda in 2008 and signed with Epitaph Records.
