Machine Gun Fellatio was an Australian alternative rock band, formed in 1997.They were well known for their provocative on-stage antics and humorous lyrics, as well as the musical merit of their songs.Their outrage-provoking name (coined by an early associate of the band who devised the term from a philosophy exercise) gives some idea of the attitude that pervades the band's work.They released three studio albums, three EPs and three singles before breaking up in 2005.
