anunexpectedgourney
It's a hunk of Unc if you ask me
rbudrick
This is wired and executed ultra-shittily. Could be done so much better.
Provos
As in life as in death playing your uncles bone.
funone77
drosophilamelanogaster
Can anyone say creepy attention whore?
motoalchemist
yeah, thats is very metal
PeeterGrant
That halloween wig is not metal. Not at all.
onlyhalfghost
Ya boy's playing his uncle's skeleton. He can put his hair up however he wants.
68people
Disrespectful and attention seeking. His uncle donated it to science.
sacrosanctt
This guy is a known troll. Has various identities. Likes the long con. Has world records under another name for long nails and a tall hat.
svennisiggi
yeah, looks like its made from sort of resin to me.
ballsoutflyer
That is the most metal thing I've seen in my entire life. High five.
Ivalicenyan
Kinda cool, mostly gross.
swamprott
Damn that's metal
bigbadnigel
I feel bad for the uncle that this guy just got a load of cheap ass parts and stuck them to his body. At least splash out on a decent neck
SpaceMarineWithAnUrgeToPurge
AlonzoMoselyFBI
Still holding onto black metal…
tymonaSmasher
Not sure I want to twist that tone control
Quasime
NekoPun24
that guitar has some awesome boness features
dralc42
Really needs the skull on top to complete the aesthetic
AMatureTwink
How do you even hit the frets inside the rib cage
Mommabear10
Last podcast on the left did an interview with the guy. It's very interesting.
drduffer
Should’ve been a xylophone player.
Skumbo
yeah but, you should have seen his uncle before.
leopardspotster
Yuck.
butts4hats
I hope his uncles was okay with it
Cranbananarama
He was dying to get into music.
canucker327
Is that legal?
Ismelledwhattherockwascooking
To play Black metal?
Lostedge
Desecration of human remains. Nope it is not legal. I guess if some of the relatives didnt approve and thought it was disrespectful ...
DarkBusterBaron
Who cares I would much rather have this happen to my remains than have them buried in an overpriced wooden box.
Fairemont
Yes.
ManOCheese
Glad they pointed out the uncle was dead, would be weird otherwise.
HandoB4Javert
Well, he's dead *now*
darthstormer
His living uncle, attending the concert:
WhatImgurWantsIsWierd
But would have been more metal. (sorry)
KidAmnesia
You mean more meatal, right?
Cheomesh
Not like he was using it
FirstThingThatCameToMind
wouldnt want people to accidentally think his uncle just had a skeleton collection.

Boneless Uncle

CeoHuntingSeason
With the speed medical science goes I think it's not too far in the future when you will be able to replace all your bones with titanium
CeoHuntingSeason
For diseases that attack the bones and stuff like that
ChalkCoatedDonut
Is he? He seems fine to me.
JaromirAzarov
That is without a doubt the most impractical guitar I've seen in my life...
hamberglar
Fairemont
But it IS a guitar!
AMR300
It is most certainly NOT guitar nor any other string instrument... at least not without strings.
meltedfaceguy
It makes me pretty upset that it has a telecaster bridge pickup for the electronics. Not very metal
JaromirAzarov
Yeah, don't get me started on the choice of hardware and the shoddy workmanship...
ThisUserNameMightBeTaken
Agreed. Plus, no access above 13th fret.
salunatics
For those thinking how hard it is to get medical remains in the US, the uncle died in Greece 20+ yrs ago. Had remains shipped to USA.
buddyalbertaccione
I believe it's illegal to use human remains in this way in many countries.
experiencemike
Laws are suggestions. If you don't get caught it's not illegal.
BethMme4
In US, laws vary by state, but most permit only 3 options for disposal of human remains - burial, cremation, donation to science.
BethMme4
Plus there's the sticky issue of cleaning the flesh off the bones.
AmanRyno4672
Not really. https://youtu.be/Np0hJGKrIWg
hamberglar
Does that apply to implants? Dad and I were discussing making stuff out of his titanium kneecaps.
BethMme4
I think they do give you those if you want them.
BethMme4
After a second hip replacement, Lord Burghley had his original metal femur part made into a hood ornament. Doubt those would be legal today
LazerHawkAttack
"Black" Metal... Sure... That hair, he's either playing heavy glam rock, obscure glam thrash metal or old school 80s heavy metal.
DethShartBSideU
Wwwhut are you doing step uncle....
reffotsirk666
Probably a party wig.
boiphamet
One single coil pickup, I've gotta bet old 80s metal
KrantNeuf
Karen's haircut
AvsFreak
Yeah, rod Stewart hair doesn't scream, Metal.
bixby66
Yet he has a guitar made of human bones.
LazerHawkAttack
Death-, gore- or grindcore metal then?
secondtalon
Counterpoint - Party Cannon.
IAmACyberneticOrganismLivingTissueOverEndoskeleton
They look like the music they play, all grindcore bands kinda look like this, minus the logo.
Lisossoma
Yeah that’s death or grind. Definitely not BM
Aldante92
Maybe he's fighting Shinra
recury
https://youtu.be/6xQD-MfOuQA
LazerHawkAttack
He could also cover Europe, but okey
JudasReborn
He should learn to play the guitar.. 0% brutal. 100% cringe.
AnOceanOfStars
Everybody knows true black metalheads have afro hair.
RoutemasterFlash
The most metal hairstyle possible is the skullet.
paintingagency
... some do, yes

FloodingWaters
Are you seriously trying to question the metal chops of the guy with the human skeleton guitar? I think he's got the cred to wear his hair
FloodingWaters
in pig tail braids and still be more metal than all of us
IndianJoe
He may be the most metal guy that ever lived. That does not mean he plays black metal.
FloodingWaters
I s'pose it doesn't but the idea that his hair is the determining factor is ridiculous
IndianJoe
It's the opposite. He got the look because it goes with the music. He'd look like different if he played another genre... Like black metal.
TheChunkyBurger
Definitely a red flag though, his music may be black metal but it's goofy. https://youtu.be/fYo0_sxRlTQ
