Info:

With the meaning of its name taken from Ezekiel 33, Watchmen formed in the Seattle, Washington area in the mid-eighties before releasing an eight song demo entitled Fear No Evil and placing the tapes title track on the Underground Metal compilation. Following up in 1989 with its full length Regency Records debut entitled Generation, Watchmen plays a commercially accessible form of melodic hard rock certain to appeal to fans of Angelica, Guardian, Bloodgood (All Stand Together era), Stryper and Shout. The exceptional lead vocal abilities of Greg Sweet bring to mind other talented vocalist such as Tommy Keifer (Cinderella), Les Carlson (Bloodgood) or even Ronnie James Dio. Guitarist David Van Liew proves equally talented, adorning the album with an abundance of sharp sounding and blues influenced lead guitar work. Keyboardist Kevin Anholt does a good job adding just the right amount of texture to the bands sound. The top notch rhythm section of drummer Kevin Whisler and bassist Doug Larson, however, end up being held back by the albums production problems.
