Kim Kelly, presseansvarlig for grindcorebandet Anal Cunt, har gjennom Twitter bekreftet at frontmann Seth Putnam på lørdag døde av det som trolig var et hjerteinfarkt.

Seth Putnam har vært kjent som en nokså kontroversiell figur som en følge av Anal Cunts svært offensive lyriske innhold. Ofte ble han sammenlignet han med GG Allin, og var kjent for sjokkerende sangtitler som I Became a Counselor So I Could Tell Rape Victims They Asked for It og I Sent Concentration Camp Footage to America's Funniest Home Videos.

Kelly sier blant annet følgende i etterkant av Putnams dødsfall:


"I want to remind everyone that no matter how outrageous and controversial his musical career has been, Seth was still a human being with friends and family that loved him. I'm hoping that the Internet will remember that. This is a very sad and trying time for those that knew him, and the last thing they need to see is an outpouring of message board hate. The man lived and died by his own rules; if anything, respect him for that."
