Dr. Killbot Go Clean For “Harmless Fun Machine” Video (Premiere)

Published

on

Sometimes we love to post things that are just absolutely ridiculous and absurd. And what better way to do that than by teaming up with Dr. Killbot and showing off their brand new video for “Harmless Fun Machine”? The song is actually a censored version of their incredibly raunchy and filthy track “Heartless Fuck Machine”, which appeared on 2009’s Creature Compendium. And though the lyrics are far more lighthearted and innocent, that doesn’t mean there isn’t still a surreal, nightmarish quality to this clip!

Accordion player Bilbo Badass tells BD, “After some hefty market research, we found that Dr. Killbot needed to expand its reach in the preschool demographic. Our song “Heartless Fuck Machine” had proven popular with adults, so why not repurpose it for the lucrative post-toddler group? We are proud to premiere the video at Bloody Disgusting, nationally recognized as THE source of entertainment news for children aged four to seven.

You can listen to the original track, “Harmless Fuck Machine”, right here. You can also purchase Creature Compendium via iTunes.

Frontman Jonny Turbo explains:

“Harmless Fun Machine” is the classed up radio edit, great for prime time TV and grandmothers version of “Heartless Fuck Machine.” It’s a delicious slice of soul cheese run through the punk rock lawnmower of a misspent youth. The video plays with the idea of doing good in a place of horror and terror. It was made completely by our accordion player Bilbo Badass, and is chalked full of Easter eggs, cultural references and inside jokes. If you’re anything like us, you’ll be laughing at all the crazy shit happening in the background just as much as what’s front and center.

Now, “Heartless Fuck Machine” comes from the depraved sexual escapades of this band, but the catalyst for the song was Solomon Burke’s “Hold On I’m Cumming,” wherein I always imagined a construction worker coming home after a long day of work, grabbing his paycheck and neglecting his family’s pleas for help, then wasting his entire paycheck on blow and hookers. You know, all that stuff Solomon Burke was into. So, we decided to make our own song along those lines. “Harmless Fun Machine” came about because we thought the over-the-top sexuality of Fuck Machine was funny, but in contrast the over-the-top clean version was even funnier.

Once, We were asked to play a “punk rock wedding” in the middle of nowhere Michigan, where I was able to dedicate “Heartless Fuck Machine” to the groom’s grandmother. She loved it, then we made out in a broom closet. Dr. Killbot is nothing if not a class act.
