It’s all in the title. A.C.’s 1997 release
\nI Like it When You Die<\/i> contains 52 songs. Yes, 52 songs and
\nthe total run time is less than 45 minutes. A.C. is the
\nabbreviation for the name of this band, Anal Cunt. Their sound
\nteeters between death metal and crap.<\/p>\n
I could pull the spin that this is a band of talented overlooked
\nmusicians that are merely rebelling against the mainstream music
\nworld. Or maybe that the members came from broken families and
\ncreating this style was the only way they could survive in this
\nworld. Or that this is the genre that mainstream media will gobble
\nup them up like Hanson and soon you’ll hear cuss words in every
\nmainstream song.<\/p>\n
No, I don’t have any more of what I’ve been drinking.<\/p>\n
And I’d be lying if I said I think the “next” Neil Peart is
\nplaying drums or the “next” Eddie Van Halen is playing the guitar.
\nCertainly, it’s no Robert Plant or Eddie Vedder singing.<\/p>\n
But none of those musicians would fit here. This is a disc with
\nnothing but screaming, fast drumbeats, and a thick guitar
\nsound.<\/p>\n
And I like it… with some stipulations.<\/p>\n
I would like this disc more if I wanted to peeve my neighbor. I
\nwould like this disc more if I wanted to infuriate my relatives,
\nin-laws and out-laws. I would like this disc more if I wanted to
\nlose all credibility as a reviewer. I would like this disc more if
\nI wanted to torture my worst enemy. I would like this disc more if
\nI wanted to alienate my friends.<\/p>\n
Despite all that, I like it. Some.<\/p>\n
To get a better idea as to what this band is about, I’m going to
\nlist the 52 songs that are on this release. More than anything
\nelse, the mere song titles should give you an idea of where this
\nband is coming from. The only bad thing about the actual song
\ntitles is that the vocals are so buried in the mix that you’d have
\nto listen to this at least 10 times before you could pick out any
\nwords. Hopefully, the next release will bring the vocals closer to
\nthe front of the mix.<\/p>\n

You should know the range of this band’s sense of humor. Track
\n32 is noteworthy because they thrash through “Down,” 311’s
\nbreakthrough single. Of course, A.C. end the song with “You
\nf@#cking suck!!!” which, not surprisingly, is quite audible!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":24720,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"tags":[],"artist":[5950],"rating":[5619],"class_list":["post-35924","review","type-review","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","artist-a-c","rating-rating-c"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review\/35924","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/review"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35924"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/review\/35924\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24720"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35924"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35924"},{"taxonomy":"artist","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist?post=35924"},{"taxonomy":"rating","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyvault.adishjain.in\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rating?post=35924"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
