No, not the Knack, it was MTV that destroyed disco. It took disco and made even worse disco with Madonna, bad disco that continues to this day with the likes of former Mickey Mouse club members (literally) Jason Timberlake, Britney Spears and Christina Aguelera and their pilot microphones.

The Knack were great, for one song. Problem is, "Baby Talks Dirty" sounded too much like "My Sharona" and so they failed.

The Knack never destroyed Disco. Neither did the Cars or the Steve Miller Band or the Alan Parsons Project or Asia or Styx or Yes or even Def Leppard. Or the Sex Pistols or Devo or the Clash.

Disco was never destroyed. Just temporarily crippled.
