Sister Machine Gun began life in 1990 as an industrial duo formed by Chris Randall and Chris Kelly in Chicago. Sascha Konietzko (of KMFDM) became interested in their music and produced their first demo, which got them signed to Wax Trax! Records in 1992. Chris Kelly left the band shortly thereafter, and since then Randall has continued the band as a solo project with various collaborators, notably Jim Marcus and Van Christie of Chicago industrial-funk act Die Warzau. After 1997's Metropolis album, Randall left Wax Trax and sued their parent label, TVT Records, for breach of contract. Since then, he has released all his material on Positron! Records, which is operated by his wife, Lisa Randall. Currently, the band is comprised of Randall and guitarist Miguel Turanzas. Sister Machine Gun got their name from an essay written by Die Warzau member Jim Marcus, entitled "Sister Machine Gun, Brother Bomb". Despite claims to the contrary, the name was not inspired by the Skinny Puppy song Tin Omen. In fact, both instances originate from the Marcus essay.«-(¯..v..¯)-«
