Artist
The Blackout are a Welsh post-hardcore band formed in Merthyr Tydfil in 2003. Dual vocalists Sean Smith and Gavin Butler front a sound built on melodic choruses, screamed vocals and heavy guitars. The band are known for the albums The Best in Town and Hope, as well as songs including “Save Our Selves (The Warning),” “Children of the Night” and “Higher & Higher.” In 2006, The Blackout supported Lostprophets on a UK arena tour, and in 2011 they joined My Chemical Romance for British dates on the World Contamination Tour. Their 2015 farewell tour ended in Merthyr Tydfil. After reuniting, the band returned to large festival stages with a 2023 performance at Download Festival.
