The trend of spreading ashes during metal shows is catching on after Dying Fetus scattered the ashes of a fan as a last dying wish. We later learned that the late metalhead, simply known as “Nick,” had been making the rounds with many other bands like Taake, Abbath and Behemoth. Now, it appears another deceased fan in Cleveland, OH asked to have his burnt remains spread on stage by his favorite band Hatebreed.
During their current tour with DevilDriver, Devil You Know and Act of Defiance, Hatebreed decided to pay tribute to a fan who asked to have his ashes given to the band to share a moment on stage. The band posted the following message on their social media along with a picture of the fan’s ashes:
“RIP Dennis Guyot. His wish to have his ashes spread out on the Hatebreed stage last night in Cleveland. We did it and dedicated ‘As Diehard As They Come’ to him! A true Hatebreed diehard in life and death!”
We never had a doubt the guys at Hatebreed were the coolest guys around but this still adds more points to that. If you want to catch the guys on the road doing more cool stuff, make sure to hit one of their shows listed below:
