Yeah, as though that name would get you far in (rather left) Toronto. Wearing "wife-beaters" doesn't help. :)

I've never heard Anal C--- called Anal C before, didn't even recognize the shortened form...

I could pull out just about any UK 70s punk compilation LP (incl. Stiff ones) and see a bunch of band names whose sole purpose was to be offensive for their one-song stab at immor(t)ality.
