Background notes
Archive material and source history
Doomwatch was a post-punk and industrial band active in the early 1980s, with Paul Chain on vocals and bass, Brian Ogilvie on guitar, and Alan Glen on drums. They released a single called "A Waste of Mind" in 1983, followed by an EP titled "Exorcism" in 1984 and albums "Lost in the Shadows" in 1985 and "The Fear Eaters" in 1986.
Their music was known for its raw, confrontational quality, and "A Waste of Mind" in particular sparked debate for its direct treatment of mental illness and suicide. The band's uncompromising approach to social and political themes drew criticism from some quarters at the time.
Doomwatch's work has been noted for its influence on later post-punk and industrial acts, with their blend of dark melodies and experimental sounds finding an audience among listeners drawn to music that grapples with difficult subjects.
