About
Steel Pole Bath Tub was an experimental noise and industrial music project active during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Emerging from the underground industrial scene, the project created abrasive, avant-garde compositions that blended elements of noise, dark ambient, and experimental sound design. Their discography includes the albums Butterfly Love (1989) and Lurch (1990), followed by the cassette release The Miracle Of Sound In Motion (1993). The project's work exemplified the uncompromising aesthetic of the experimental underground, featuring heavily processed instrumentation and unconventional compositional approaches characteristic of the industrial noise movement of that era. While operating outside mainstream recognition, Steel Pole Bath Tub contributed to the broader landscape of 1990s underground experimental music alongside parallel developments in industrial, power electronics, and noise art scenes.
