Black Eyes Club - Demo


Here's a pretty obscure demo tape I could obtain this year. Black Eyes Club was a short-lived HC band of Ontario who were into skating as this tape is a benefit for the Hamilton Skateboard Assembly.
Black Eyes Club have a strong early Hüsker Dü influence. They even cover 'Lifeline' of them.
There were plans for a 7" on Schizophrenic Records but the band already fell apart. Too bad.
Don't know when the tape was recorded but must be the first half of this decade.

7. Thank You Mr. McAllen
8. One Day At The Time
9. Black Eye
10. Lifeline

Heya, I'm Jon and I was the singer. We recorded the demo in 2002, but I think we had it out by 2003. Definitely was a labour of love. Max Ward loved it, and we were supposed to do a 7" on Deranged that never materialized then we broke up.

There were two covers for the demo, the one you have as well as a boxing themed one. There were a ton of CD-R's as well. Glad to see that folks like it.
