Black Widow was a '''Alice Cooper/Venom/Motorhead''' style  group from Brisbane. The band released a six-track demo tape in 1985 called ''See Our Evil, Hear Our Evil, Speak Our Evil'' and played at several of the Metal Over Brisbane "Holocaust" mini-fests, and later supported '''Stryper''' on the Brisbane leg of their Australian tour. The band's sound was originally considered to be very rough and primitive. Bassist Chandler left the group later in the year and was replaced by Mouse with added guitarist Max, which bolstered the quality of the band's live sound. By 1987 the band had ceased to be. Max and Mouse went on to form [[Iron Lightning]]. Macdonald went on to play drums for '''Gypsy Rose''' and later [[Vice]].
