STEEL POLE BATH TUB

Dense atmospheric indie rock with elements of hardcore and metal, 1990s Montanan band 

had a steady college following. Enigmatic noise rock trio Steel Pole Bath Tub crafted a grungy, 

droning, offbeat sound from a palette of fuzzed-out bass riffs, blasts of guitar feedback, and tape loops, 

plus a raft of alternately kitschy and disturbing dialogue samples from vintage TV shows and movies. 

Additionally, the band had a penchant for deconstructive covers of rock classics, some of which 

appeared only on 7" singles. Steel Pole Bath Tub was founded in Bozeman, MT, in 1986 

by guitarist/vocalist Mike Morasky and bassist/vocalist Dale Flattum. After moving to Seattle, 

they joined up with drummer Darren Mor-X,  a veteran of the local early-'80s hardcore band Mr. Epp 

(which featured future members of Green River and Mudhoney). Taking their name from 

a feature in a true-crime magazine, the trio relocated once again, this time to San Francisco

 Steel Pole Bath Tub landed a deal with the Bay Area indie label Boner, which was also home 

to the Melvins in their pre-Atlantic days. The band's debut album, Butterfly Love, appeared in 1989, 

and was followed in 1990 by the Lurch EP (both were later combined on a CD issue). 

These early releases established the band's fascination with pop-culture references 

and TV dialogue snippets, and led to several Bay Area side projects: Morasky teamed 

with Boner label head Tom Flynn in Duh (aka Death's Ugly Head), and the whole group 

worked with Jello Biafra under the name Tumor Circus...(AllMusic)
