Book/Magazine + Digital Album
In 2020, Tom Aspaul independently released his debut album, Black Country Disco. Having lived and worked in London for twelve years as a songwriter (Kylie Minogue, Becky Hill, Snakehips, Celeste), Aspaul returned home to the West Midlands where the album was conceived and created.
With no label, no publisher and no PR team (and released during the height of the global pandemic!) the record was named by Gay Times as ‘queer disco album of the year’ and included in several end-of-year countdown lists (Guardian, GQ), supported by a sold-out UK tour and streams of over 4 million.
In collaboration with Polari Press – with foreword by gay icon Princess Julia and featuring interviews with a cast of photographers, producers, filmmakers and artists who helped create the album – BLACK COUNTRY DISCO: THE BOOK includes never-before-seen photography, an in-depth look into the lyrical content of each track and Tom’s musical inspirations and visual references for the album’s creative processes.
I really wanted to document and celebrate the record, from its initial inception, to its release, through to the tour in 2021, as well as showcase all the (mostly queer) creatives who helped and enabled me to fulfil my vision. It’s been a wild, often difficult journey getting this album made, something I don’t think I’ll ever experience quite so intensively again. The record itself is really only half the story

[Verse 1]
Ooh I know, know that it’s over
Ooh I know, know that it’s over
You could really tell
I couldn’t afford the therapy
You could really tell
That you didn’t have the time
And even when it felt
Like I was feeling this jealousy
You could really tell
I could never, ever cry no
Ooh I know, know that it’s over
And now that it’s over
[Bridge]
Only then I realised
I could see it in your eyes
Sleepwalking through our lives
[Chorus]
I don’t think that I could start again
You know it’s gonna be a cold September
I don’t wanna show this heart again
The way you left it feels a little tender
We gotta do, what we gotta do
But it’s still a little tender
We gotta do, what we gotta do
But it’s still a little tender
[Verse 2]
I know, know that it’s over
Know that it’s over
You could really tell
You were from another family
But we made it work
And I’m happy for the time
And even when it felt like
You were from another planet
You cannot say we didn’t try
[Chorus]
I don’t think that I could start again
You know it’s gonna be a cold September
I don’t wanna show this heart again
The way you left it feels a little tender
We gotta do, what we gotta do
But it’s still a little tender
We gotta do, what we gotta do
But it’s still a little tender
[Bridge]
Only then I realised
I could see it in your eyes
Sleepwalking through our lives
[Chorus]
I don’t think that I could start again
You know it’s gonna be a cold September
I don’t wanna show this heart again
The way you left it feels a little tender
We gotta do, what we gotta do
(I don’t think that I could start again)
But it’s still a little tender
We gotta do, what we gotta do
(I don’t wanna show this heart again)
But it’s still a little tender
waiting on the sidelines until i do something worthy of being asked to open for this amazing band. discovered you during a cliche middle-age-identity-crisis. thank you for making me feel simultaneously young and old. lengthsofwire
