Kropserkel muzzles 'Disturbed' (Hannibal Lecter related)

[kropserkel]

UPDATED WITH SOME PHOTOS of David Draiman wearing our muzzles on tour.

It's not every day that replica pieces see the light of day, or in this case, the light of a spot lamp on stage.
Adding to our celebrity clientele of replica antiquities is Disturbed's lead, David Draiman, who will be sporting our Lecter muzzles in their upcoming tour starting later this month.

I'm not really too familiar with the genre of 'hard rock', 'heavy metal', 'alternative metal', or 'nu metal', the tags that this band currently fall under. Is is me or are there so many more categories in music these days? If physical, cd selling music stores had a future, how would they keep things organized these days? I digress. I hope to be able to feature some images of him wearing the muzzle on stage during the performance in the near future. To date, I haven't been able to find a suitable subject model that is disturbed enough to warrant the wearing of the piece, but apparently now, that time has elapsed.

Not sure how many fans there are of the band there are on this forum, but if anyone comes across anything of Draiman-Lecter in imagery, I would love to hear from you!

Thanks for the read!

Addendum: It seems like other bands are catching the masks on stage bug. Prometheus Burning had us make them Brazil's Information Retrieval (baby face) mask for their concert at the end of this month. Pictures of that to follow too!

I actually shot them a few years ago. A great bunch of guys to be around. Back in the early days, Dave used to come out in a straight jacket and sometime along with the straight jacket, he would sport a lecter-like mask. I haven't seen Dave wear that get-up in YEARS. It would be funny to see him wearing it again. He only wore that before and right after they were signed. Once after doing the side stage at ozzfest, I haven't seen him in the outfit again. Good memories

lol I don't even know what the music I like is called...


Congrats on the sell! From draiman's description, sounds like the band is aptly named and the mask would fit perfectly into their wardrobe.
