My Degeneration
Formed in London in 1964, the eyes took the early feedback experiments and pop art image of bands like the who one step further. The band wore dyed parkas in various pastel colours and brightly coloured rugby shirts with huge eye symbols on the chest.
Their raw, energetic sound and distinctive style combined aggressive, fuzz-driven guitar riffs with catchy melodies and a youthful defiance that captured the energy of the London mod scene. Their music bridged rawness freakbeat with the emerging psychedelic sound that would dominate the latter half of the decade.
Tracks like the feedback-laden “when the night falls” or the fuzzed-out “you’re too much” sounded years ahead of its time and they would influence the mod, garage revival and indie / shoegaze scene of the following decades.
The eyes only released a handful of singles between 1965 and 1966. They disbanded in 1967 and unfortunately they never released a full album during their short lifespan. Here it is!
Remastered sound plus eight-page colour insert with liner notes by Paul “smiler” Anderson and rare photos / memorabilia / download card.
