Background notes
Archive material and source history
Kevin Martin and The Hiwatts came out of Glasgow in the late 1990s. Their debut album 'Amedia' arrived in 1997, with the title track becoming a notable single. The band's sound pulled from indie rock and electronic textures, with Martin's vocals giving it a distinct edge.
They followed up with 'The Love Album' in 1999, continuing to work with a dense, experimental approach. Songs like 'Enemy' and 'Identify' from their catalog show the band's preference for darker, more abrasive arrangements over straightforward rock.
Martin had been active earlier in the 1990s as a DJ and producer, and had worked with Martin Atkins in a project called The Bug. That background in electronic music likely informed the Hiwatts' layered production. The band's material often dealt with heavy themes, and Martin's personal struggles with addiction became part of the story around the group in the early 2000s.
