Wasting the Dawn is the fourth studio album by The 69 Eyes, recorded Nov - Dec, 1998 and released in 1999, produced by Gaga Goodies / Poko Rekords.
It was released internationally on Roadrunner Records.
The album's hit single, "Wasting the Dawn", paid tribute to the Doors' Jim Morrison. The video featured HIM member Ville Valo posing at a snowy cemetery as the ghost of Jim Morrison.
