Carter USM - interview 1993 London

Carter USM interview backstage at the XFM festival, Finsbury Park, London, June 13th 1993 Recorded on VHS at SP from analogue terrestrial broadcast. Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine (also known as Carter USM or simply Carter) were an English indie rock band[ formed in 1987 by singer Jim "Jim Bob" Morrison and guitarist Les "Fruitbat" Carter. 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. #xfm #altrock #90smusic
