Disco Death is a cover by Belgian band Arbeid Adelt! of PIL's "Death Disco".
Taken from the b-side of the 1983 7" single "De Man Die Alles Noteert,"[1] the track was recorded live. Although titled "Death Disco" it is actually a cover of "Fodderstompf," reinterpreting the bassline of "Fodderstompf" with a Roland 303. Jan Vanroelen from the band recorded a studio version of "Death Disco"[2] which was released as a 12" single in 1987.
In recent years this track has become something of a cult classic and has featured on numerous mix compilations, most notably As Heard on Radio Soulwax Pt. 2 mix album.
