Singer
Chris Randall said he originally ran across "Sister Machine Gun" in a
thesis by
Jim Marcus while in
college- though many believe the name was derived from
Skinny Puppy's "
Tin Omen." Randall also appeared in the 1996 issue of
Playgirl as one of the "
Top 10 Sexiest Rockers." He prefers to call the band's music "
aggropop." I have liked their stuff for years, although nothing about it is truly
profound. Just
hard and fun.
I saw them several years ago open for Prong in Atlanta. An excellent show. The angst/passion they exhibited ignited the crowd.
