Another Band Puts Blood into Their Records

February 16, 2014 Alan Cross 0 Comments 0 min read

The idea of a band contributing their actual blood to a project goes back to at least 1977 when all four members of KISS bled for their Marvel comic book. Today, the Flaming Lips seem to the be the leading practitioners. They’ve even convinced Ke$ha, Coldplay and a few other friends to help out with their own precious bodily fluids.

Now we have the somewhat NSFWly-named Perfect Pussy getting into the act. The New York-based noise punks are offering up a “special blood edition box set” of their debut album, Say Yes to Love.

Only 130 copies were available–singer Meredith Graves only had so much blood to give–and they all sold out immediately.
