Carter USM

Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine (frequently shortened to the more politically-correct 'Carter USM') were formed in 1987 by singer Jim Bob and guitar hero Fruitbat. Playing along to tapes, samples, sequenced basses and drum machines as well as rock 'n' roll guitars they would be referred to as 'The Punk Pet Shop Boys', and travelled around Europe in a small hire car playing for petrol money on the pub and club circuit, where they built up a small but loyal following.
