Seth Putnam and Anal Cunt were arguably one of the best, most unapologetic bands (and individuals) to have ever graced metal. Now, in a Putnam-less world where Donald Trump is an actual candidate for president, comes Anal Trump! The band, fronted by Cattle Decapitation's Travis Ryan, with all music by Ryan Crow, sports hits such as "I Like The Soldiers Who DON'T Get Captured," "Blood Coming Out Of Her Whatever," and "Make America Great Again."

Seeing all the publicity the band got, Ryan released this statement on his Facebook page:
Alright, I feel like I gotta say something. For one, I'm not the "genius" or "mastermind" behind Anal Trump like these sites are spinning it as. I was asked by my friend, and musical fucking genius, Rob Crow, to throw some vocals on a grindcore Anal Cunt-ISH joke project called Anal Trump. Literally like 2 weeks ago. Seeing as how Trump is a clown, I was fresh off this Brujeria tour and I'll jump at the chance to work with this guy, I said "fuck yeah"! He wrote, recorded and performed all the music and even wrote the lyrics. All i did were all the vocals, I think I maybe came up with the taco bowl idea and the song about him confiscating the coats. Lol. That's all.
I'm not a far left liberal, I'm DEFINITELY not a conservative. I'm actually somewhere in the middle although I'm registered as a Democrat. I think this world is too polarized right now and life doesn't work that way. Life is chaos. Chaos resides in no end of any spectrum. That middle grey area is where discussion and dialogue takes place. Its where reality dwells and that's the closest I identify with. Anal Trump is meant to be a funny response to this ridiculous man in a grindcore setting, a genre that gets its sound and values from punk, hardcore and the old days of extreme metal where fans didnt give a shit what nationality you are, what your political stance is. IT'S FUNNY. You know… " HA HA"? Its meant to make people laugh. We're glad most people get it, whether they're for Trump or against him, and are getting a kick out of it.
Wanna get mad at Anal Trump? I don't see how anyone has the energy for that considering the state of the world and the fact that there's so much more to be mad at than 2 dudes who spent a period of a few hours making 3-13 second songs about an orange billionaire.
I will be releasing the Anal Trump 7" on my old defunct label Attention Deficit Recordings, so be on the lookout for that. It will be months from now cuz the vinyl industry is bogged down but I will let y'all know of course… just be sure to follow my page so you will know when its ready. It will be a limited edition of 300 copies.
Ok, I think I just spent more time writing this than we did writing, recording, performing any given track on this release, lol!
Speaking of Seth Putnam, this is a good time to remind folks that shortly before he passed, we had the honor of interviewing him after he awoke from a post-meth binge coma, and it was awkward and hilarious. Here is the interview:
