2 Minuta Dreka - Let's Start A Porn In The Name Of Gore

An instant porngrind classic. 2006's debut from Italian noisecore-cum-grinders 2 Minuta Dreka really made it's mark in a time where pure groovy grind had gone a bit stagnant (GUT's Cumback, anyone?). For me it holds the perfect production; that excellent fine line between studio quality and rehearsal room feel. I guess it is the very organic drum sound (count-ins and all) that helps keep this record's garage vibe locked down. Let's Start A Porn... was released on the seemingly now defunct (?) American label Half-Life Records. I believe also that the record is out of print. Perhaps it should be re-released on vinyl!

There are a few rather long songs here, but that's cool because they are all fairly groovy and don't get boring at all. The samples are just priceless, and if you go on the official 2 Minuta Dreka website, vocalist Brandy has been kind enough to list what films they are all from. Mixed in with the longer tracks are a plethora of silly grindcore 1-seconders and a couple of cover songs from the likes of GUT, Meat Shits and Fear of God. It is clear where this band gained their influences!

It's hard to believe it's been 7 fucking years since this album came out! I for one literally cannot wait for a new 2 Minuta Dreka record. Blllllllerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhh.

Anal Cunt / Meat Shits - Split 7"


This is "Another" split EP between early Anal Cunt and the slightly infamous Meat Shits. The version I have was put out in black wax on Seth Putnam's own label, Wicked Sick Records, back in 1991. As with the 88 Song EP, Fudgeworthy Records have re-released this rare AxCx 7" in 1996 on blue and clear pressings.

Musically, it's a typical old school noisecore Anal Cunt up against the horrible noisecore/goregrind crossover mess that is Meat Shits. Crazy to see how many members Meat Shits had on this recording, considering it's basic horrible noise. Robert Deathrage has to be equally the queerest / most awesome front-man name in metal, ever.

The original pressings of this on Seth's label are quite rare, nothing super inaccessible but copies are averaging £20 or higher on Discogs at the moment. I would go as far as say this is definitely a completist's item as far as Anal Cunt's musical input is concerned.
