Anal C**t frontman Seth Putnam has died after suffering a suspected heart attack. He was 43 years old.
Putnam ( centre ) formed the controversial grindcore band in Massachusetts in 1988 and released 11 deliberately offensive albums, including 1996's 40 More Reasons To Hate Us and I Like It When You Die, which followed one year later.
In addition to Anal C**t, Putnam contributed vocals to recordings by Pantera (1996's Great Southern Trendkill), Corrosion Of Conformity, Brutal Truth and Napalm Death.
According to a spokesperson, Putnam and his bandmates were working on new material just before his death.
"The chances are [Seth's] musical career's epitaph has yet to be inscribed," reads a statement by the band's press officer Kim Kelly. "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 who loved him. I'm hoping that the internet will remember that. The man lived and died by his own rules; if anything, respect him for that."
