Formed in 1987 by Fruitbat and Jim Bob, Carter The Unstoppable Sex
Machine burst onto the scene with their signature style of punk-pop infused
with samples, drum machines, and social commentary
Released in 1995, ‘Worry Bomb’ was Carter USM’s ffth album and their fourth in a row
to break into the top ten of the UK album charts.
It would also be the frst to feature
their new drummer, Wez, marking a shift away from the famous drum machine sound.
The album mixed things up musically, balancing mellow acoustic tracks like ‘My
Defeatist Attitude’ with Carter’s signature high-energy indie rock, including ‘Let’s Get
Tattoos’ and ‘The Young Offenders Mum’ which both hit the UK top 40.
To mark the 30thu202Fanniversary of the album, ‘Worry Bomb’ is reissued for the
frst time.
This expanded edition features the complete album across three sides of
vinyl, plus a selection of bonus tracks on side four.
