This was also the point where the band decided they had done as much as they could and decided to split up, after releasing Another EP and completing their first European tour. Ī few releases later, Earache Records again made an offer to the band, this time to license the 5643 Song EP for a European pressing (and later to buy the whole pressing), but Anal Cunt continued to turn down such offers.

The first demo was recorded on a four-track in April in his mother's attic but this has never been mixed, released, or heard by anyone outside of the band members themselves.Īfter a few more shows, the band decided to attempt a U.S. As a result, it was arranged for the two bands (Anal Cunt and Shit Scum) to play a concert together so Ordonez could see Putnam's band, and a further show was arranged at Shit Scum's rented practice warehouse. Putnam invited future member Fred Ordonez, from the band Shit Scum, to the show, but he failed to turn up. This was scheduled to be the band's first and last show. Several other small performances followed, in various basements and living rooms, before their first public show live over the radio at Brandeis University, with Anal Cunt being the latest in the long line of Putnam's bands who had performed in this way. The band's first performance was a rehearsal in 1988 at Putnam's mother's house in front of some family members, namely his mother, his two little brothers and his grandmother, as well as some of his mother's friends. Early performances and recordings and brief breakup (1988–1992) ![]() Originally, the band was to produce a form of 'anti-music', without rhythm, beats, riffs, lyrics, song titles or any other of the normal features of a band, an approach exemplified by the 5643 Song EP. Putnam originally formed the band as a joke, and they were supposed to only record one demo and do one show however, they were active up to 2011, despite several brief break-ups. In Q magazine's 2005 book The Greatest Rock & Pop Miscellany Ever!, Anal Cunt was included in a list of "25 Band Names That Should Have Stayed on the Drawing Board". The band did, however, later in their career render tribute to him by recording a version of "I'll Slice Your Fucking Throat (If You Fuck with Me)", originally recorded by Allin and the Murder Junkies.

It was not until then that Anal Cunt had earned the reputation for intentionally being outrageous and obscene. Over time, the band gradually shifted their style and slowly began to incorporate more riffs and pre-written lyrics into their songs. Rather, the band developed an entirely improvised style which consisted of extremely loud, fast, and unintelligible screaming. The group's early material contained no pre-written lyrics or music. However, the band managed to subvert even this abbreviation by drawing these letters in a manner resembling an anus and a vulva, which can be seen on multiple of their albums (often written as AxCx) due to the offensive nature of their name and censorship limits on some radio and publications, and many of their album covers simply display the initials A.C. The band is often referred to by their initials A.C. Anal Cunt disbanded in 2011 after the group's founder and frontman, Seth Putnam, died of a suspected heart attack. The band, known for its flippant and noisy musical style as well as controversial lyrics, released eight full-length studio albums in addition to a number of compilations and extended plays. From its inception, the band underwent a number of line-up changes and never had a bassist.
