Chiefs of Relief is the name of a British rock group from the late 1980s. The group consisted of guitarist-vocalist Matthew Ashman (formerly of Bow Wow Wow), drummer Paul Cook (of the Sex Pistols), keyboard player Duncan Grieg, and bassist Lance Burman. An early lineup included Ashman and Cook with former Bow Wow Wow members David Barbarossa and Leigh Gorman.

The group's only full-length album was 1988's self-titled release, which was issued in the US by Sire Records.

They toured the UK supporting Big Audio Dynamite in the 1980's.
