The ‘slipping out of the bath’ story was a cover-up. This is what actually happened:
Carl: “I just looked at myself in the mirror and that’s what kind of disgusted me. I was on my own in the bathroom completely pissed, in this situation that I didn’t know how it had happened, but knowing that I hadn’t done anything wrong really, and I managed to conjure all this hate out of nowhere and [I had] become a hated person in some aspects, and I just fucking belted my face as many times as I could against the sink”

— Carl, on the formation of the band.
