Anal Cunt

Anal Cunt is a noisegrind band from Boston. They are often referred to by their initials A.C. Due to the perceived—indeed intended—offensive nature of their name, many of their album covers simply displaying the initials A.C. However, the band has managed to subvert even this abbreviation, by drawing these letters in a manner resembling an anus and a vulva. Their musical catalog consists almost entirely (barring the overwrought satirical Picnic of Love album and a number of cover songs) of ridiculously offensive material.

Gaza

After their first EP, ‘East’, they returned in 2006 with their Black Market Activities debut full-length ‘I Don’t Care Where I Go When I Die’. 'He Is Never Coming Back' was released Nov 10, 2009. At some moments, Gaza are nearly as overwhelming in their rage and misanthropy as Khanate or Today is the Day, with all instruments (voice included) howling out in mad agony at the world around them. Politics, society, religion—their music is the aural effigy of that which they despise.

Carnal Decay

Carnal Decay started in 2002 as a sideproject to do some Death Metal. After a couple shows the band flew over to New Jersey to record their first MCD "Carnal Decay" at Rob Grenoble's Watermusic Recorders Studio. Billy Milano (SOD, MOD), right living in the same house, was soon convinced to make the production and mix of two songs for the MCD. After a couple line-up changes the band improved a lot and recorded 3 songs for a 3-way split called "Grotesque First Action" with Prejudice (Bel) and Infant Bile (UK) which was released in the end of 2005 through Grotesque Productions (Spain).
