Blacked Out

Blacked Out is a technical three piece punk band hailing from Banff, Alberta. They have been working around the Canadian Rockies since May of 2004. With fast, punchy songs and a genuine love for just havin' a good time, Blacked Out has built a strong and loyal fanbase in and around Banff. The band was originally created by Dicker and Morgan in a dirty basement apartment that attracted cops, angry neighbours, and Binky the deer. Finding a bass player in Banff wasn't easy for them, but eventually some guy named Wade came over to jam and drink a few beers. The cops were there faster than ever, Wade had the worst car on the planet, and Blacked Out was born. Since then they've toured across Canada and shared the stage with bands such as DOA, SNFU, GUTTERMOUTH, THREE INCHES OF BLOOD, A GLOBAL THREAT, RESCUE, CHOKE, MONEEN, THE PLANET SMASHERS, GOB, and many more talented musicians. In December of 2004 Blacked Out teamed up with Chris Barkhouse, an old buddy from back home, who happened to become an extremely talented sound engineer. The four recorded Blacked Out's first e.p., entitled Tickle My Balls, at Hotbox Studios (mort, wade and switchell's apartment). Unfourtunately, the name became somewhat irrelevant when they forgot to print it on the labels. Now it's 2008, and their new album Life Beyond The Line is ready to be unleashed on the world. But is the world ready? With no drive too long or venue too small, Blacked Out's only expectation is that everyone along the way has as good a time as they do. Why not join the party
