Anal Cunt

Anal Cunt’s philosophy was simple: if you’re not making someone uncomfortable, are you really making music?

From the record-breaking brevity of Napalm Death to the unrelenting force of Insect Warfare, grindcore artists redefine musical limits through microsongs—embodying a matter-of-fact, yet deeply expressive, approach to sound.

Seth Putnam, the iconic frontman of Anal Cunt, faced his darkest hour in 2004 when a heroin overdose led him into a life-threatening coma.

Anal Cunt’s 1993 concert at Nightbreak was more than just a musical event. It was a night of broken glasses, a broken nose, and a felony assault charge that was later downgraded to a misdemeanor.

The story of Anal Cunt is one of audacity, controversy, and unapologetic noise. As one of the most provocative bands in the grindcore scene, they left a lasting impact with their unique style and offensive lyrics.
