The band was formed when all three members were living in [[Seattle, Washington|Seattle]]. Kat Bjelland (bassist) and Stuart Gray (guitarist) were married at the time. The band was something of a side project for Bjelland ([[Babes in Toyland (band)|Babes in Toyland]]) and drummer Russell Simins ([[Jon Spencer Blues Explosion]]). Gray had previously been in Salamander Jim and [[Lubricated Goat]]. In February 1993, the band wrote songs and recorded an LP, which didn't come out until February 15, 1994. The band made plans for a full tour for the release but that never eventuated. In 1995 Bjelland and Gray were divorced and the band broke up. ==Band members== * [[Kat Bjelland]] &mdash; [[bass guitar|bass]], [[vocal]]s * [[Stuart Gray (Stu Spasm)]] &mdash; [[guitar]], vocals * [[Russell Simins]] &mdash; [[drum kit|drums]], vocals == Discography == * ''[[Crunt (album)|Crunt]]'' self-titled LP ([[Trance Syndicate]], 1994) * "Swine/Sexy" Australian single, ([[Insipid Records]], 1994) * "Unglued" track on ''The Best of Babes In Toyland and Kat Bjelland'' (WEA International, 2004) ==External links== * [http://www.katbjelland.com/crunt/indexcrunt.html Crunt page at www.katbjelland.com] [[Category:American alternative rock music groups]] [[Category:Washington musical groups]] [[Category:Musical groups founded by married couples]]
