Means of Escape

Tones on Tail was a musical side project of Daniel Ash of the gothic rock group Bauhaus, along with art school friend, flatmate and "Bauhaus roadie" Glenn Campling in 1982. After the breakup of Bauhaus in 1983, they were joined by drummer Kevin Haskins. Their music was described by one critic as "doom-and-dance-pop". The band disbanded in 1984 shortly before Ash and Haskins went on to form Love and Rockets. more »

Through a winding staircase 
Which stinks
One emerges into a cell
Beyond the cell
Is a heavy oak door
Formerly locked
Which opens to another passage way
Leading to the safety 
Of a mountain

The purposes
Of this passage way were
Protection of
The castles water supply
A place of refuge
A place of torture and detention
And finally
And finally
A secret means of escape
A secret means of escape
