Tones on Tail were a British post-punk band formed in 1982, originally as a musical side project of Daniel Ash of the gothic rock group Bauhaus.

[2] On 11 May 2024, Tones on Tail performed their first official set since 1984 at the Cruel World Festival, with Dompé filling in for Campling.

[6] Richard Williams of The Michigan Daily said, "Tones on Tail carries on with the traditional Bauhaus taste for the macabre, but charts new courses of twisting the pop thing.

"[7] James Muretich of The Calgary Herald wrote, "From the ashes of Bauhaus has arisen a British trio that is turning into one of the most impressive and macabre dance bands around.

"[8] Writing retrospectively for AllMusic, critic Ned Raggett said, "With their former band's generally gloomier shadows left behind, what Ash and Haskins draw from their time with Bauhaus is that group's melange of styles—their most underappreciated strength".
