Bio
Consideration. Focus. Deceleration. Pretty rare qualities in a time when the music industry serves, eats, chews, swallows and shits out dozens of bands every day. The device is "be quick or be dead". The result is soulless, heartless and meaningless expression of shallow words and music. The Blackout Argument slowed down in 2010. Not because of a lack of time or motivation but as a consequence of a rational decision. Having reached most of their personal goals and a good dose of "common music business goals" such as various European tours, constant media presence and positive press feedback and a long list of notable releases, the band more and more zeroed in on the true crux of playing in a band: music itself and its creation. .. Focusing on the quality and heart in everything they do, this shift in The Blackout Arguement's self-concept and vision lead to the native but also longsome birth of their new album "Detention". Infact the creative process of "Detention" started in June 2009 already, when the first 5 songs were written and demo'ed. Since then The Blackout Argument have worked constantly on both, the album and the band itself. They wrote and recorded more than 20 songs, reworked them and let them mature in a constant cycle and finally tracked them at Suiseidl Studios (Munich, Germany) with highest care and considertion. Subsequently this creation was narrowed down to a selection of 12 harmonizing songs which in the end made up "Detention", to be released in January 2011. The Blackout Argument pride themselves over their effort to self-produce "Detention", an approach that played another key role in (re-)coining the band. "Detention" is challenging and manifold yet extremely catchy and engaging. It creates a very sanguine mix of heavy rock and forward-thinking hardcore. It became nothing less than the album the band always wanted to create. Embedded in this emotional and strategic agitation the move to a new label just came naturally. Sharing equal ideas, motivation and focus, Redfield Records were the perfect match and thus became the new home for The Blackout Argument. This band is ready and excited to show off once more the great gap between them and all those short-lived, lukewarm and heartless bands. Bolstered by the songs of their upcoming album 'Detention' and sharp set for any stage on this planet, The Blackout Argument continue to build their reputation as a powerhouse of passion and authenticity.
