Bauhaus guitarist
Daniel Ash created
Tones on Tail as a side project in 1981 with bassist
Glen Campling, who was also a roadie for
Bauhaus. When
Bauhaus broke up in 1983,
Ash chose to concentrate on his new group, bringing in
Bauhaus drummer
Kevin Haskins as well. Their style ranged from light rock to funk to atmospheric synth music.
Ash became dissatisfied with
Campling, and a
Bauhaus reunion was planned, but when
Peter Murphy backed out,
Ash,
Haskins, and former bassist
David J, who had been playing with
the Jazz Butcher, decided to re-form as
Love and Rockets. ~ Steve Huey
