[edit] Bands

She became known for her work in the industrial band The Eugenics Council, in which she wrote and performed some lyrics and other duties. Often the lyrics were about hate, anger, abuse, and other unsavory concepts. The band was known for its loud abusive noise, use of large power tools and heavy explosives.

William Bennet of Whitehouse (band) produced her track on the Extreme Music From Women compilation from Susan Lawly.

"As listeners to Susan Lawly's Extreme Music For Women compilation will know, what sets the Eugenics Council apart is that they have a female vocalist, Rosemary Malign, - not only that, but she is also one of the best vocal performers in the genre, with a varied and vicious technique that achieves the difficult feat of apparent spontaneity and realism of which Kevin Tomkins remains the undisputed master. Ranging from hateful snarls through deliberately tuneless singing up to unbearable high-pitched shrieking that reminds all of us whove been in bad relationships just how downright harsh, spiteful and unpleasant a womans voice can be, she delivers a thoroughly convincing and suitably distressing performance" ---AudioGhoul Magazine[citation needed]
