bitterpulp: Dead

Dead. The late legendary vocalist for Mayhem. Born Per Yngve Ohlin, this Swedish individual is widely regarded as the greatest black metal vocalist of all time. He was rumored to bury his clothes in the ground and dig them up before shows for that vintage grave yard scent, as well as breathe from a plastic bag containing a dead bird while on stage. Dead's bizarre exploits are borderline mythical these days. Unfortunately for us he died by is own hands in April of 1991, slit wrists and a shotgun blast to the head. On that fateful day in April, he truly became Dead.
