PINK EYES started in the fall of 2013 when Philadelphia lifer Craig Woods (TOWERS, ELDER, D’AMORE, PETER AND CRAIG, HOT BAGELS) made the move to Chicago, joining fellow Philly ex-pats Dave Pacifico (BALBOA) and MIke Twietmeyer who had made the move a bit earlier. After a few months they picked up Chicago native Justin Wexler (STILLWELL, THREE CHEER FOR ONE DEAD MAN) and PINK EYES was born. After about six months of writing and rehearsal, they recruited Mike Lust to record their debut self-titled full length in the big room at their Kildare Studios practice facility. This debut self-titled LP, a split release between Forge Again Records and Be Happy Records, is a natural extension of PINK EYES’ previous bands. More grown up, more refined, but ultimately a punk/post-hardcore/indie rock hybrid that still feels urgent now but would not have been out of place on the No Idea Records roster in 1998. LP is limited to 300 copies on marbled blue vinyl with full color jackets. Includes a DL code as well.
