Read the full description of Carter USM at Last.fm. Dour Festival is not responsible for the content or form of this text.
Carter the Unstoppable Sex Machine - aka Carter USM - spent most of their performing live (1987-1998) as two guys and a drum machine and a handful of pop culture samples. The style is somewhere between The Clash and Pet Shop Boys with punning and lyrics about Britain in the 90s. A journalist once quipped that Carter lyrics were cribbed from the London A-Z book of maps.
While remaining punky and independent in spirit, Carter USM signed to Chrysalis/EMI in order to crossover to the pop charts.
