Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine

Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine (also known as Carter USM) were an English indie punk band formed in 1987 by singer Jim "Jim Bob" Morrison and guitarist Les "Fruitbat" Carter, who were previously members of Jamie Wednesday. They made their name with a distinctive style of power pop, fusing samples, sequenced basses and drum machines with rock 'n' roll guitars and off-beat wordplay-loaded lyrics. They reached the height of their fame in 1992. Over the following years the band took on new members, reaching a six-piece, but struggled to regain their earlier popularity. They initially split up in 1998 after releasing seven albums.
==Links to Peel==
Peel played their track Rubbish in 1990, which contained a sample of him saying 'what do you think of the programme so far?'. No further tracks from the group were ever played by JP. He also interviewed Jim Bob at the Reading Festival on the 25 August 1991 show where Peel confessed to the singer that he hadn't played much of their records.
