Formed
in 1987 by Fruitbat and Jim Bob, Carter The Unstoppable Sex Machine burst
onto the scene with their signature style of indie punk-rock pop infused with
samples, drum machines, and social commentary. Recorded on tour in 1993 in
support of their UK Top 5 album ‘Post Historic Monsters’, this new live album
captures the band at the height of their powers. The 19-song setlist includes
blistering performances of recent singles ‘Lenny And Terence’ and ‘Lean On Me
I Won’t Fall Over’ along with Carter classics ‘The Only Living Boy In New
Cross’ and ‘Bloodsport For All’ (also listen out for James Atkin from EMF on
some guest guitar spots). Recently discovered in the archives, the show has
been newly mixed from the original tapes by Les ‘Fruitbat’ Carter and Dave
Draper. ‘Up Pompey!’ is pressed on 140g black vinyl, housed in a gatefold
sleeve with new artwork by Mark Reynolds.
