A Company Will Press Your Ashes into a Working Vinyl Album

Music lovers can now be immortalised when they die by having their ashes pressed into vinyl records to leave behind for loved ones. A UK company called AndVinyly is offers people the chance to press their ashes in a vinyl recording of their own voice, their favourite tunes or even on an album. Jason Leach came up with the idea. How does it work? Basically the ashes must be sprinkled onto the raw piece of vinyl (known as before it is pressed by the the side A and side B plates. When the plates exert their pressure on the vinyl the ashes are pressed into the record. Joe Talbet, of the UK punk band Idles, wrote and produced the album “Brutalism” whilst his mother was dying of kidney disease. He put a picture of her on the cover and called the album “Brutalism”. She was cremated and he decided to press her ashes into 100 of the vinyl records produced. ----------------------------------- Click All The Links! ----------------------------------- Watch Can Virtual Reality Cure PTSD? ►► Watch Mad Max in RL ►► Watch Oil Is In The Water You Drink? ►► Watch A Mural Made Out Of Blood? ►► Watch Can We Save The Honey Bee? ►► Watch Tiny Houses For The Homeless? ►► Subscribe to UPROXX for new videos each week ►► Check Out Our Social: More UPROXX Reports ►► UPROXX: The premier news and culture platform for the digital generation.
