THE death metal instrument!

Post by JereFuzz »

Legend has it that these whistles were used during battle to terrify the enemy. I'd imagine they were also used during a sacrifice! The Aztec Death Whistle:

Here's a real excavated one:

Oh, shit, I thought it was fake because they kept moving the whistles away from the camera when they used them.
Apparently not. :erm: :eek: :animal:

Bumping this up because we (Fuzzrocious) released DEATH WHISTLE, our collab w/ Electro-Faustus, today.
This device comes with a 3d printed death whistle and, for a limited time, hot sauce.

‘Tis neat… but I’d want to hear a non looper based demo before even considering…

I ended up getting a 3d printed death whistle on eBay. It's shaped like a skull with tentacles and it rules! I used it at a show a couple of weeks ago but unfortunately didn't get any footage.


This is a pic from the eBay listing, but mine is metallic black.
