Cost: $1.00
The obvious appeal of the title made me pick it up, although I wasn't expecting it to be a keeper, and I didn't realize at the time that Seth Putnam produced this CD (he'd actually play bass in the band later). Punkish hardcore here. Speaking of Seth, I feel the same way about this CD as I do about the majority of Anal Cunt stuff--the music is really secondary to the unrepentant and un-PC humor of the songtitles and lyrics ("Choke Your Grandma" and "Several Well Placed Kicks to the Face," just to give two examples). Musically it's old-school hardcore punk and nowhere near as noisy and chaotic as AxCx, but I think the vocal style, short song lengths, and lyrical subjects would make this more appealing to grindcore/noisecore fans than hardcore fans. It certainly did for me. Also, best part of the CD: short rendition of the Deliverance banjo theme on guitar. Worst part of the CD: "Charles in Charge" not sounding enough like the show's theme, even though that's what they used as a lyrical basis (though the tune itself is about Charlie Manson).
