# SEX MACHINEGUNS

**SEX MACHINEGUNS** is a heavy metal band, from Japan, active 1989 to present.

Sex Machineguns is a Japanese heavy metal band formed in 1989. Their music is characterized by a heavy focus on bass as well as extremely fast guitar and bass solos. The band uses the image of "shock rockers" by wearing crazy, exotic outfits like visual kei bands, although this image has been toned down, especially since 2003 when the long-term bassist Noisy left the band. The lyrics feature very off-beat and non-serious themes. In addition to their image and attitude, they also exhibit technical skill on their instruments.
