steel pole bath tub - the miracle of sound in motion


released in 1993

the melvins recorded an album under a different name as a joke for their major label debut...but atlantic records were having none of it (turns out...major labels don't have a sense of humor...look at what happened to nirvana)...so the HOUDINI album was released instead

and you even get a cover of the pogues song "down all the days"

    Am I misreading this, or are you suggesting that Steel Pole Bathtub is The Melvins under a different name? Cause I'm fairly certain that is not the case.

    I think this post is in "ironic" mode. Melvins and SPBT did a split single (which I think was posted here at some point?) once. They've "associated," to put it politely.
