15 Wackiest Band Names


"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. The band has often been criticized for its popularity being based solely on their controversial song titles and lyrics rather than any musical ability, and is often mentioned when a debate is being made against the grindcore genre of music. One ongoing dispute is how much Anal Cunt actually believes in what they say on their albums.


Common lyrical themes include misogyny, homophobia, anti-Semitism, racism, ridicule of the unfortunate, and insults directed towards other bands of a similar genre ('Anyone Who Likes The Dillinger Escape Plan Is A Faggot'). Some examples of their controversial song titles are 'Hitler Was A Sensitive Man,' 'I Hope You Get Deported,' and 'Your Kid Committed Suicide Because You Suck.'"
