The Cycle Sluts From Hell were an American heavy metal band from the early 1990s. They were only together briefly but are remembered for their name.

The band comprised of four women singing under the stage names Queen Vixen, She-Fire of Ice, Honey One Percenter and Venus Penis Crusher, with a backing band of session players. The music was written by most of the women and their guitarist Lord Roadkill (Pete Lisa).

The band's self-titled debut album was their only release. The song I Wish You Were a Beer is their best known track, written by Honey 1%er and Tom Von Doom. The video clip for it got MTV airplay when released and still appears regularly around the world (eg. Australia^[1]). The track also featured in the MTV show Beavis and Butthead, who reacted favourably to it.^[2] The band's biggest gig was a European tour with Motorhead in the early nineties.
