Anal Cunt/Flächenbrand split 7" by Shev

Shev's Review:
This is quite simply Anal Cunt at their best.  Still using their trademark chaos/pig-in-a-blender sound, this is the perfect mix of noise, blur, and retard grind.  Most striking about this album is not the technical ability (it never is), but the overall diversity of material.  Anal Cunt serves up plenty of all-out noisy grind, but they also offer some very punk-influenced tunes such as "You're A Cop" and "You Play On A Softball Team".  On top of that, there's plenty of straight-forward joke material which is good simply for a laugh in songs like "311 Sucks" and "The Internet Is Gay".  Overall, Anal Cunt will never be a band that takes themselves seriously, and "I Like It When You Die" does the best job out of all their albums to drive the point home.  A must for fans of blur and retard grind.
Shev's Rating:  A+
