Machine Gun FellatioMachine Gun Fellatio are an alternative Australian band, recording and playing music of large range of styles. They were formed in 1997 by three of their current line up. The first release was a collection of songs by themselves and two other bands - The Libertines and Limebunny. The three groups weren't completely separate - there was some overlap between members. Machine Gun Fellatio's first well known track was Isaac or Fuzz, a song made of parts of a voice message left at a recording studio, put to a fast dance beat. They remained quiet until 1999 when they released Mutha Fukka On A Motorcycle, and Unsent Letter. By this stage the band comprised seven members. In 2002 they played the Big Day Out festivals, and have since played at many others, including Homebake, Livid and Gone South. Their album Paging Mr. Strike was released in 2002 and was a big turning point for the band. By this time they were very popular on Triple J and also started to receive some airplay on other stations, with Rollercoaster being one of their more commercial friendly tracks. In 2003 the album was re-released with 2nd CD of remixes and rare tracks. The group has caused some controversy for their wild performances, which often involve both male and female nudity. The student union at the University of Melbourne once cancelled a performance because of this, with fellow Victorian universities RMIT and Swinburne University of Technology following suit. This hasn't stop universities in New South Wales and Queensland allowing the band to perform on their campuses. Current members - Bryan Ferrysexual (drums)
