History Music / AnalCunt

** ''Howard Is Bald'' is a [[AffectionateParody very lighthearted poke]] at a music executive they are friends with named [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Howard Wulkan]]. He's bald. There is vulgarity, but it is much more sparing than the other albums. Like ''Picnic of Love'', a lot of the songs are covers, except with the lyrics changed to focus on Howard and how bald he is. Really, almost nobody could find it offensive. Howard didn't.

* LongTitle: Many of their song titles.

* AdaptationalSexuality: Freddy Mercury is depicted as a child molester in the song "I Made Your Kid Get A.I.D.S. So You Could Watch It Die".

* AllGaysArePedophiles: Bizarrely inverted in "I Gave NAMBLA Pictures of Your Kid," which was based on Artimus Pyle's actual sex offense charges... against two underaged girls.

* AllGaysArePedophiles: Bizarrely inverted in "I Gave The NAMBLA Pictures of Your Kid," which was based on Artimus Pyle's actual sex offense charges... against two underaged girls.

* AsiansEatPets: Asians are not spared from Anal Cunt's frequently racist lyrics: one of their songs is titled "I Sold Your Dog To A Chinese Restaurant", while "[[AsianStoreOwner You Own A Store]]" contains the line "Hide your dogs, hide your cats".

* BaitAndSwitch: On ''It Just Gets Worse,'' "I Sent Concentration Camp Footage to America's Funniest Home Videos," "Body By Auschwitz," and "Hitler Was A Sensitive Man" are followed (if not immediately) by "Into the Oven," which is about... cooking and eating a Thanksgiving turkey.

** On ''Picnic Of Love'', the lyrics are clearly enunciated and Seth usually either adopts a comical falsetto or a low croon... but towards the end of closing track "In My Heart There's A Star Named After You", he suddenly reverts to screaming, despite the song's gentle acoustic guitar track.

** Also "Your Kid Committed Suicide Because You Suck", originally titled "Connor Clapton Committed Suicide Because His Dad Sucks".

* DrivenToSuicide: "Connor Clapton Committed Suicide Because [[Music/EricClapton His Father]] Sucks"

*** Speaking of Brutal Truth, ''It Just Gets Worse'' has a track on there titled "B.T./A.C." It didn't contain lyrics; Seth just took to making fun of Kevin Sharp's vocal style.

-->''SHUT UP!!!''

* {{Grindcore}}: They were a parody of it by making their songs '''go UpToEleven.'''

* UpToEleven:
** As if ''[=AxCx=]'' wasn't enough, Putnam also set up ''another'' StealthParody act in the form of "acoustic black metal" band ''Impaled Northern Moonforest'', lampooning the ridiculously "[[GrimDark grim]] and [[GrimUpNorth frostbitten]]" lyrics of many a {{black metal}} band.
** This was also the premise of ''It Just Gets Worse;'' take ''I Like It When You Die'' and make it even ''more'' offensive. Four songs had to have their lyrics censored and a few more needed to have their titles changed.

* IntentionallyAwkwardTitle: The band's name (which is translated into a [[ContemptibleCover Contemptible]] [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/8/83/40MoreReasonstoHateUs.jpg/220px-40MoreReasonstoHateUs.jpg Logo]]), as well as most of their songs.

* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: This is the band that [[TropeCodifier defined]] 11, barring ''Picnic of Love'' (a textbook 1) and ''Fuckin' A'' (around 7 or so.)
* MohsScaleOfLyricalHardness: Also around 11, though it's StealthParody at its finest.

** ''Fuckin' A,'' a parody album InTheStyleOf Music/MotleyCrue. It's still somewhat high on the MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness, but the very fact that every song has a recognizable riff makes it surprisingly gentle for them. It even has a power ballad (of sorts) in the form of "I Wish My Dealer Was Open".

* TropeCodifier: For [[MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness Level 11]] metal.

** This was also the premise of ''It Just Gets Worse;'' take ''I Like It When You Die'' and make it even ''more'' offensive. Four songs had to have their lyrics censored and one had to have its title changed.

* MotorMouth: More often than not, the lyrics are incomprehensible because Putnam screamed them so damn fast (or more likely, just emitted wordless screams to compensate for not being able to fit any given lyrics into a single bar).

* IndecipherableLyrics: Most of the band's grindcore output after ''Top 40 Hits'' falls under this, despite the band having written actual lyrics for them. For example, the first verse on "I Ate Your Horse" is listed as "Your dad took out a second mortgage to buy you a horse", but it's more or less nowhere to be heard in the actual song (instead only "Yaragabawagabwaryagh" is discernible).

* ForcedMiscarriage: Anal Cunt have a song titled "You're Pregnant, So I Kicked You in the Stomach", in which the singer, well, narrates the act of [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin kicking a pregnant woman in the stomach]] to make her have a miscarriage. Why? ForTheEvulz, that's why.

* IndecipherableLyrics: Putnam, full stop. For example, the first verse on "I Ate Your Horse" is either "Your dad took out a second mortgage to buy you a horse" or "Yaragabawagabwaryagh."

* MotorMouth: More often than not, the lyrics are incomprehensible because Putnam sang so damn fast.

* DomesticAbuse: Seth Putnam was apparently quite abusive in his relationships, never mind titles such as "Women: Nature's Punching Bag".

* AddledAddict: His overdose and coma (and eventual death) notwithstanding, let's put it this way: the band making it through a small handful of songs before having to call it quits because Seth was too fucked up to stand, let alone perform was a very common occurrence. Even if he ''did'' make it through an entire set (or at least the bulk of one), odds were good that he was slurring his words to something vaguely resembling the tune of whatever song they were playing (if you were lucky) as he drooled all over himself and mumbled out insults to the audience between songs.

* {{Troll}}: Seth's entire motivation.

* StrawFeminist: The rape victim described in the song "I Sent a Thank You Card to the Guy Who Raped You" is implied to be this, given it is stated that she attended a Bikini Kill concert prior to the assault and "felt like a strong independent woman".

* JerkAss: Seth Putnam came off as an ''extremely'' unpleasant individual in general; while a good deal of this was obviously an act, there are plenty of documented non-affected moments that suggest that his actual personality was still quite nasty.

** "Bonus Track #5" is a mockery of [[Music/{{Kiss}} Gene Simmons]], physical embodiment of the GreedyJew stereotype.

* {{Troll}}: Seth's entire motivation. This apparently extended to real life; there are countless people from the Boston area who can tell stories of Seth going up to people and insulting them out of the blue just to see how angry he could make them, which frequently resulted in his being violently attacked.

* AdaptationalSexuality: Freddy Mercury is depicted as a child molester in the "I Made Your Kid Get A.I.D.S. So You Could Watch It Die".

* MetalScream: 99% of Seth's vocal style is just blood-curdling screams, even when the band starting writing ''song''-songs.
