Dying Fetus spread deceased fans ashes at show. Yeah, you read that right.

Dying Fetus have honored the life one of their fans in one of the best ways possible - by scattering his ashes in the pit during one of their shows, of course.

Dying Fetus have honoured the life of one of their fans, in one of the best ways possible - by scattering his ashes in the pit during one of their shows, of course.

Yesterday, the band put it to their social media followers what to do with the ashes (pictured above) of one of the band's die-hard fans, by the name of Nick (his last name was not given), who had recently passed away.

"A Dying Fetus fan named Nick from Illinois recently passed away, and his wishes were to have his ashes scattered on stage at a Dying Fetus show, what do you think, should we do it?"

Commenting on their post after hundreds more or less stated that the band should indeed honour the wishes of the man in question, the trio said this:

"We just scattered nicks ashes in the pit for his favourite song, homicidal retribution, may he RIP. Rest in the pit \m/"

Well, we don't know about you, but that's pretty damn cool. It's just a shame that for Nick, he couldn't be there to see it. Rest in peace, and on ya, Dying Fetus.
