Anal Prolapse is an American brutal slamming deathcore band from Kansas City, Kansas.
History
Anal Prolapse was formed in the early fall of 2018 by lead guitarist/vocalist Gutshredder and ex-vocalist Daedroth. A couple weeks later, Gutshredder recruited Necrodolor to play rhythm guitar and vocals. The trio wanted to create old school death metal with all three members contributing to vocals.
On September 13th, 2018, Gutshredder and Necrodolor wrote and recorded the first ever Anal Prolapse song in just 4 hours. This song was entitled “To Asphyxiate the Torrent of Wretched Blood to the Outer Extremities and the Flesh Thereof (The Razorwire Noose of the Hand That Once Was)”, and it would later become the debut single for their first album, “The Hand That Once Was”.
The Hand That Once Was
On February 1st, 2019, Anal Prolapse released their debut album “The Hand That Once Was”. This album was recorded, mixed and mastered by Anal Prolapse, an independent band at the time. The band didn’t have a drummer during the recording of the album, so drums were programmed for each song. The majority of this album was written and recorded by Gutshredder, due to complications within the band, and due to Necrodolor being ill when vocals were being recorded for this album.
“The Zombified Carcass of a Human That Once Consumed the Flesh of the Bloody Sacrifice” is the opening track of the album. All instruments were written and performed by Gutshredder.
Track 2 and lead single of the album is “To Asphyxiate the Torrent of Wretched Blood to the Outer Extremities and the Flesh Thereof (The Razorwire Noose of the Hand That Once Was)”. This song features Gutshredder on lead guitar, and Necrodolor on vocals and rhythm guitar.
Track 3 is entitled “Lynched With My Own Intestines”. This song features one of Daedroth’s few contributions to the band, with the lyrics of this song being written by him. All instruments were recorded by Gutshredder.
Track 4 and the second single of the album is entitled “The Sensation of Being Eaten by Wolves While Ripping Out Your Inner Organs, Thus Scattering Them Over the Hardwood Floor and Leaving Faint Traces of Blood”. This song is the only song on the album to feature bass. Every instrument on this song was recorded by Gutshredder.
Track 5 and the third single of the album is “Shitfuck”. This song was written by Gutshredder and Necrodolor, with Gutshredder on lead guitar, and Necrodolor on vocals and rhythm guitar. The first solo on this song was recorded by Gutshredder, and the second solo was recorded by Necrodolor.
Track 6 is entitled “Receiving a Lobotomy From A Resurrected Cadaver Through Necromancy”. Lyrics to this song were written by Daedroth, and all instruments were recorded by Gutshredder.
Track 7 is entitled “Eviscerated With a Rusty Nail”. Lyrics to this song were written by Necrodolor, who did the majority of vocals on this song. Gutshredder did some vocals on this as well, and recorded each instrument.
The closing track to this album is entitled “Beyond The 4th Hour”. This song was supposed to feature all three band members singing, but due to complications, Gutshredder recorded all the vocals. All instruments were also recorded by Gutshredder.
The bonus track is a cover of the Kahoot Theme Song, with Necrodolor on vocals and Gutshredder performing every other instrument.
Masochism Manifested Records
Masochism Manifested Records was a newly formed label, looking for bands in the Kansas City area to sign. Due to the positive feedback “The Hand That Once Was” was receiving and the band’s social media presence on Instagram, Masochism Manifested Records asked Anal Prolapse to be the label’s primary band. Anal Prolapse agreed, and started to write for their second album.
Lineup Changes
In early 2019, Anal Prolapse decided to change their lineup, so the band could have each instrument covered by a member. They quickly fired Daedroth from the band due to his “inability to perform his instrument.” The band decided Necrodolor would be the permanent vocalist, and that he would drop rhythm guitar and become the band’s bassist. Gutshredder remained as the lead guitarist, but dropped vocals except for the occasional vocal appearance. Lyric writing would be shared by Necrodolor and Gutshredder. Anal Prolapse started looking for a drummer and a rhythm guitarist. In February of 2019, they recruited FrostMourner to play drums. On April 2nd, 2019, they recruited Cockflesh on rhythm guitar. On April 21st, 2019, Anal Prolapse parted ways with Cockflesh, because the band didn’t see a need for two guitarists.
Reinstating The Black Plague
Gutshredder and Necrodolor wrote and recorded their sophomore album, “Reinstating The Black Plague” during the summer of 2019. They wanted to incorporate more slam elements on this album, which is reflected in songs such as “Laparoscopic Sigmoid Resection” and “Bone Drill Tampon”. Unlike their first album, this album was mixed, mastered, and recorded by Masochism Manifested Records at Masochism Manifested Studios, giving this album a better overall sound. Drums were recorded at Audius Maximus Studios, on August 31st 2019. FrostMourner was supposed to record drums on this album, but due to internal tensions between him and Necrodolor, FrostMourner was fired from the band on this day. Because of this, Gutshredder had to learn and record 10 songs on drums in one day, and he recorded drums on every song off this album. He has since assumed the drummer position full-time.
“Reinstating The Black Plague” came out on September 13th, 2019, the one year anniversary of the writing of the band’s first song. Gutshredder recorded guitars and drums, and Necrodolor recorded bass and vocals.
Track 1 is “Elimination of Parasitic Embodiment By Disabling Their Vital Bodily Reproductive Members, Which Concerns the Flesh of the Eternally Stable Deities”. Lyrics to this song were written by Gutshredder.
Track 2 and the first single “Vampirical Cunnilingus” featured Lucas Muñoz of Torn Asunder and MooseBite on vocals during the chorus. Lyrics to this song were written by Necrodolor.

The first bonus track is the shortest song of all time, which also has the longest title of all time. With a run time of 29 milliseconds, and a title of 103 words, this song breaks two world records. This song is called “The Destruction and Desecration of a Rotting and Decaying Corpse of a Sinner Slain for Practices of Sacrilege and Blasphemy, Thus Handed Over to the Executioner For His Crimes and Died a Bloody Death While the Onlookers Stared in Awe as His Severed Head Rolled Away From the Axeman Who Hath Slain the Sinner For His Crimes Against the Church With His Now-Bloody Axe, Which Reaks of the Blood of Sinners and Permeates With the Souls of the Unmourned Dead Who Perish in the Fiery Underworld of Hell For Their Eternal Crimes and Die Unto Themselves By the Pitchfork of Satan and Suffer Unimaginable Toil as They Burn”. Lyric and title were written by Necrodolor.
The final bonus track is the title track “Reinstating The Black Plague”. Gutshredder can be heard singing the prechorus to this song. Lyrics were written by Necrodolor.

Isle of Desolation
Isle of Desolation is a collaborative EP that was written and recorded by Anal Prolapse and Moribund Winds. This EP came out January 3rd, 2020.

Gutshredder and Asmodeus co-wrote guitar, and Gutshredder even has a guitar solo on the EP.

Walls of a Broken Heart
Conceived as a self-aware and morbid parody of the traditional love song, Walls of a Broken Heart was originally written in June of 2019 and released on Valentine's Day the following year. Drums for this track were recorded during the Isle of Desolation sessions, and guitar, bass, and vocals were recorded later. Vocals were written in June, but Necrodolor eventually decided to rewrite them in January after deeming the original ones to be too dark.
