2 live crews third album 'as nasty as they wanna be' is the first album in history to be deemed legally obscene.
2 live crew had been around for awhile with there sex raps and strippers on stage and no one batted an eyelid but as soon as they accidently crossed over to the mainstream it caused a sh!tstorm for them. Members of the band were arrested when they performed in some US states. And record shop owners were arrested for selling the album. they was always in and out of court, and because of the controversy it helped the album go double platinum. They also eventually made a clean version of the album (sell outs:p) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwNiXABt1JY
Without doubt the nastiest set of lyrics I've ever seen are Entrails Ripped From a Virgin's C*nt by Cannibal Corpse. And, no I'm not going to link to them or the song. Utterly foul.
I can only assume that fans of this band are either very unpleasant people, or they just don't read the lyrics.
Having listened to it it's not actually possible to hear the words. Death Metal vocalists can get away with a lot.

I'd forgotten about that! I did have a cassette of the original version at one point, dunno if I've still got it anywhere though!
I wouldn't want to inhabit the mind that even comes up with those lyrics, let alone writes them down & records them. It can't be a good place to be.
I have listened to some of the A*** C**** 'music' - post hardcore or one of those really meaningless subgenres.
I thought they were being sarcastic, some sort of dark comedy but actually they're just garbage,
The Korn lyric above seems misogynistic, or possibly misanthropic?
I've started to listen to Cannibal Corpse. This seems to be called Death Metal. It could be a commentary on how f**ked up they think the world is or has rock and metal turned off into a side alley from which there is no escape?

Nah. I don't know if there's any beating that Cannibal Corpse song my eyes have been opened to
Did you Google the lyrics?
Why D'Ya Do It
I'm afraid I did.
Every single line contains the N-word with a few more swears thrown in.
Princess Superstar
NYC C*nt

And "Necropedophile" is worse!
Hence, I do not listen to any version of the song.

No, me neither. Bit scary really.
