Metal musician turns his uncle into a guitar. "Now Uncle Filip can shred for all eternity. That’s how he would want it."

King Diamond used to have a real human skull nicknamed 'Melissa' as a stage prop, but this is even more hilariously metal.
For as crazy as this whole thing is, Uncle Filip looked like this:
So he would probably be totally down (beyond being disappointed at his goober nephew's bouffant).
that's, uh....that's pretty metal
In fairness I would totally be down with someone doing something like this with my bones when I die. Although, I guess I'd like to at least know beforehand?

The article alludes to his uncle being Greek Orthodox, therefore not able to get cremated
Overcrowding in Greek cemeteries is a real problem, most people nowadays only stay buried for 3 years (for which you have to pay rent) before being dug up again and moved.
I also think it's important to know that his uncle died in the 90s, so it's been over 20 years.

I thought what the article meant is that cremation is forbidden in Greece, regardless of the person's own beliefs. Greece is an Orthodox country.
If his uncle was against cremation I doubt he would have considered cremating him.
There are crematoriums now in Greece despite pushback from the church, but they were never illegal. Greece is very much a secular country, one of the previous prime ministers swore a secular oath on the constitution (rather than the bible) and without the Archbishop present as is tradition. Soldiers can be sworn in using a holy book of their choice or the constitution. Orthodoxy is just the religion most people there adhere to.

That uncle headbanged...
Always please me to see Metalocalypse GIFs 🤘
It's all fun and games until you get a little too into the track and wind up smashing uncle Filip over a monitor.
Yeah, with the ribcage covering up most of the neck above the 12th fret, it's largely going to be a rhythm guitar.
Call me old fashioned but i think I would feel distinctly strange thrashing away at my late uncle's pelvic bone
Damn, going by that photo he must have died pretty young.
Anyway, that's about as metal as it gets.

Was expecting a normal looking guitar made with his ashes or something, holy shit man that's METAL
Please put these skeletons in spoilers i will have a nightmare now.
That's messed up.
