Sign me up!  I'd like to be pressed into a copy of 'The Wall'.

 

Sorry, I can't really think of any great puns right now.

"WHAT," the cry came from everyone in my dorm room. I nodded in assent, and went back to head-fi.

If you are a "Dead Can Dance" fan it could be a good thing.

Kind of creepy, but I think it's also kind of cool.

 

I like how the skeleton on their website is wearing Grados though.

I wonder what happens when you play them? Do you hear voices crying out from the great beyond, mixed in to the music?

 

I'd love to have a black metal record with a dead body pressed into it. Talk about kvlt.

If this is still around by the time I die, I'm totally doing it.  I already want to be cremated, so this is like the icing on the cake, so to speak.

 

Anyone up for some Grateful Dead?

I would pay good money for a vinyl pressed from a dead body of a member of the band that the album is from.

Have you ever read/seen 'Pet Sematary'?  There are just some things we don't venture into, for good reasons.  Leave it be...

Well, either the music plays backwards or the ghost of the dead person pops out of the record and runs around naked screaming in Latin.

 

The latter seems more likely in my opinion.
