Ended up drinking beers after a Beasts gig one night.
They were all trying to score drugs, sad.

TATU was a marketing ploy. Nothing more. And Putin would never allow 2 cute Russian lesbians to be marketed like that in Russia these days.

 

[Lerxst]

Gruntruck
Fudge Tunnel
Nailbomb
Copshootcop
Unsane
Steel Pole Bath Tub

Some really good bands but out of that list AFIAK, Unsane is the only one still continuously recording and touring but they've always just had low key popularity, undeservedly.
Grungetruck got f'd over by roadrunner way back.
Next two were just side projects.
CSC ran out of gas in the 90s.

Steel Pole Bath Tub actually reunited this year after a long hiatus and did a couple shows. Miracle of Sound in Motion is one of my all time favs.

I was just recently told that they weren't actually gay, so I guess they're sort of still being talked about, but only by people who hadn't actually thought about/talked about them in 20 years

Maybe I wasn't paying attention but I never knew they were supposed to be lesbians....was that a thing or just people's assumption at the time?

Does anyone care though

Yeah, his voice is shot. David Lee Roth's
is too.

My wife went and saw them with Def and Jett and all of them early this Summer. She said it was embarrassingly bad.

Who is Motley Crue's guitarist now?

The ferryman.
Just kidding. It's John 5. I love John 5 but he really shouldn't have taken that job.

It was a thing people assumed and they intentionally played in to, evidently; part of their marketing plan basically.
