“’Ass to Grind’ is a lamentation on failed relationships, both specific to myself and in broad, universal strokes, and the assumed victimization inherent in romance for all parties involved,” explains Cronk. “The song also touches on the notion of a presumed heroism in co-opting the tragic circumstances and victimization of others, as though in doing so, one achieves virtue and depth of character by proxy; an unpleasant byproduct of the well-meaning naïve.”
Since appearing on the LA underground scene in early 2018, Cunts have earned a reputation for their blistering and intense live shows. Equal parts catharsis and blood-letting, Cunts as a live entity is unapologetic. The band opens for Mr. Bungle and the Melvins on Feb. 7 at the Fonda Theatre. The band will announce a February U.S. tour soon, with European tour news forthcoming as well.
The album, which is available on vinyl, CD and digitally, can be purchased and/or streamed here: https://smarturl.it/cunts.
