About this album
Sound:
"A vibrant blend of disco-infused pop and Eurodance rhythms that invites non-stop movement."
Where they were
When 'Disco Defenders' was released in 2009, Alcazar was experiencing a revival after a hiatus, following their previous album 'Alcazarized' from 2003. This album marked their comeback to the music scene, showcasing their signature dance-pop sound while appealing to both old fans and a new generation.
Why it matters
The album features the hit single 'Crying at the Discoteque', which gained significant popularity across Europe, charting in multiple countries. Its infectious sound helped solidify Alcazar's position within the Eurodance genre and contributed to the early 2000s disco revival trend.
