Sitting somewhere between 90s house music, the Pet Shop Boys and The Streets, Pink Eye Club – aka Haydn Davies – is set to release his debut album ‘Disco Reality’ this week.
Over its nine tracks, the record features deadpan complaints about the drudgery of life, with track titles like ‘Same Job For Three Years’, ‘You’re Just A Stupid Fucking Man In A Really Shit Band’ and ‘Angry Things On The Internet’.
Out now is anthemic new single ‘You Seemed Like A Nice Guy’, which – he says – is “a song about people you meet and initially they seem nice but then you go on their social media and it turns out they have far-right views”.
The track comes with a video directed by Lou Smith, who says: “I happened to catch Pink Eye Club at his debut London show at the Five Bells five years ago”.
“I have watched his act and following grow along the way. His unique perspective has helped him tackle some of the challenging aspects of his own self-confessed neurodivergence and, in a real way, has positively affected the lives of others”.
You can catch Pink Eye Club live at The Windmill in Brixton on 16 Jul. Watch the video for ‘You Seemed Like A Nice Guy’ here:
