Regulator Watts

Regulator Watts was a rock band from Washington, D.C. from 1996 to 1998. When the band broke up, Dunham formed a new band, Abilene, and Sless-Kitain joined Bluetip.

The band released their only studio album, The Aesthetics of No-Drag, in 1997.[1]

Style

The band's music resembles that of illustrious predecessor Hoover, with more of an emphasis on taut, mechanical basslines and feedback-laden, spare guitar lines, as opposed to Hoover's fluid, jazzy basslines and contrasting guitar styles.
