This past January, at the annual National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) show in Anaheim, California, Slayer guitarist Gary Holt unveiled a guitar adorned with eighteen vials of his own blood. He'd commissioned thirty-four-year-old New York City-based artist Vincent Castiglia to paint the guitar, and in keeping with the badassery and playful exhibitionism of the whole project, the artist drew the blood he ultimately used for the artwork from Holt backstage after a concert on Long Island.
