Eye Do It- I Lost My Mind 7”
A quick and dirty post today – the lone 7” from UK post-punk/new wave flavored band Eye Do It, who seem to have had a penchant for hieroglyphics judging from the record sleeve. This 7” was released in 1984 via N.R.O. Records, who also released a compilation titled A Night at the Flicks which features the third and final Eye Do It track (which I do not own and have not heard, but would love to if anyone has a copy of this compilation, which also features indie pop band Mighty Mighty).
Touchstones for this single include bands like Ex Post Facto, Repetition, Last Man In Europe, Pink Military, I’m So Hollow etc. I really dig both tracks here, and hope you do as well!

1. I Lost My Mind

Quick housekeeping note – I’ve been receiving a few comments lately, some nice and others unnecessarily hostile (cut the crap), regarding downloads not working. They do, still, for every post that has a download link. If clicking the link does not work to download directly, try the classic right click – save link as trick. Thanks!

Like Antoine, the only comment you’ll ever see from me is a “Thank you”. Everything you share is fantastic and your efforts are always appreciated, please don’t give rude/hostile people the time of day, they’re not worth it.
Thank you!

This blog is fantastic.
Thanks so much from France. With you i have the pleasure discovering unknown bands from the 80’s.
Don’t loose your time with some people which are always unhappy.
I hope you understand my words (i know that my english language is not perfect).
Thanks so much again

Silly name, great record! Thanks for posting, along with all the other good stuff. And screw the haters. Some people need to be ignored.

The name choice is not something random. Both it and the cover image are the instances of All-Seeing Eye symbol, also known as Eye of Horus. A very common occult motive even in the mainstream music industry, by the way. Look it up.
