I actually enjoy them. They are also probably one of my favorite bands. I hope they come to the States to play a REAL tour here, since that would be a great show to go to.

They should make a serious album , like ryan said , they could beat the living shit out of sucide silence and all those generic bands.

Defenders Of The Hate was a pretty well produced album for Anal Cunts standards. Musically it's a lot more thought out, lyrically it's still standard Anal Cunt.

A few tracks can be found here.

They don't take the music they make seriously, and neither should anyone else. They just have fun with it, and I give them credit for being able to collectively piss off more people than pretty much any other underground band in recent history.
Haha!! The lyrics are hilarious, but there is no way I could listen to them non-stop...It would really do my head in. "It Just Gets Worse" was a 'good' album, though I fear to me the stuff all starts to sound the same after a while.

P.S. They've been playing music pretty much all of their lives, if they really wanted to make a serious album they'd be more than able to. I'd also be willing to bet that if they did it would put all of the other buzz word 'grind' and 'modern hardcore' bands to fucking shame.
Alot of bands have very well trained musicians playing in them, a local band of mine had all grade 8 musicians in it, and then a vocalist who couldn't sing, and it was pretty shocking even though everyone loved the instrumentals. I think they should at least try to portray some musical value to their music, even if they lyrics are kept the same.

Cheers man, that stuff was actually alright. But again, could not listen to them for long periods of time lol.

Enter Shikari were groundbreaking for me, (Along with Sonny) getting me into electronica elements and making them some of my favorite sounds to listen to.

ES: Rawk, Synths, and British.

Seriously, How cool is that? :wub:

all of it. Though their latest album does seem to have a greater use of electronica elements to it. "Solidarity" makes me want to drive very fast and/or break stuff. I think "Mothership" is my favourite song by them.

my friend went to see them in Rock City (Nottingham - England) and he said it was absolutly mental, and they were amazing live, the whole crowd was crazy and they really managed to create such a sense of togetherness with their music!

He came back with a cracked rib though because of the Mosh Pits :/ haha! wish i could have been there!

How can you expect more from them? This album is probably one the best albums i've heard in a very long time and by far the best they have done, i really don't think they will be able to top it... no matter how much they try!
