Steel Pole Bath Tub with Terry Gross and Wife
Seminal Art Noise Rock band Steel Pole Bath Tub return for their first live appearance in the Bay Area in over 20 years. The original line up, Dale Flattum, Dorothy Kent and Mike Morasky joined by new member Noah Landis (Neurosis, Christ on Parade), recently reformed to headline a 33rd anniversary reunion festival for legendary Texas venue "Emos" and are now performing at select cities throughout the U.S. starting with their longtime home of San Francisco.
After their inclusion on the legendary Lookout Records compilation "The Thing that Ate Floyd" (1988), SPBT's first album "Butterfly Love" was heralded by Gerard Cosloy as "one of the only bands that give me hope for the future of rock" and launched a ten year period in which they released 9 LPs/EPs, a dozen singles and were included on dozens of compilations as well as numerous other notable side projects and solo endeavors.
Often topping the college radio charts, SPBT's combination of highly creative noise rock, melodic songwriting and gritty, cassette based sampling was critically acclaimed in the music press of the time and they toured tirelessly throughout the U.S., Europe and Japan, often sharing the stage with some of the best names in 90's rock. Ultimately uncategorizable, the breadth of their artistic appeal straddled many scenes and are cited as a major influence by bands, artists and writers alike.
