Prince Midnight made headlines around the world when he had his late relative’s bones fashioned in an electric guitar. In a continuation of his gruesome fixation with all things bodily, the musician has embellished records with blood from his fingers, reports the Daily Star. It truly was not a gimmick to sell records but I could not find any artist who had ever embellished their records with their own blood. On Prince Midnight's website a 7” opaque blood red vinyl record can be snapped up for $8 (£5.80). It is described as the first vibraphone based heavy metal record presented in a thematic concept album of Prince Midnight and his "time in the underworld".
