AQUILA NON CAPIT MUSCAS

About Me

Active, and inactive, since 1985... While Angels Watch is the primary musical project of Dev, an early member of post-punk act Flowers in the Dustbin and Patrick Leagas’ Sixth Comm. Following a trio of cassettes, issued during the 1980’s, While Angels Watch were re-activated in 2000 and in 2002 released their first CD, DARK AGE, a sister MCD, STILL THE STAR SHINES, in 2004 and a retrospective CD, HISTORY & HERITAGE (VOLUME I), in 2008.

An album of new material, TREASURES OF TREACHERY, will hopefully be completed and released by the end of 2008.

While Angels Watch are interested in performing at home and abroad; promoters please feel welcome to get in touch via this space, or, if you prefer to write:
