Description
Disconnected is the debut solo album by Stiv Bators, released in December 1980 on Bomp!. The album is a radical departure from the punk rock sound of his previous band the Dead Boys, and sees Bators venturing into 1960s-inspired power pop.
Describing the album, Mike Stax of music magazine Ugly Things wrote that the album was "a surprisingly melodic power-pop effort" and that it showed the affinity Bators had for British Invasion-inspired 1960s garage rock and pop music, "favouring ringing Rickenbacker power chords and tough but harmonious backing vocals."
