They did a blood-filled record for Motley Crüe, a fly-filled record for Alice in Chains, a ring-filled record for the Sonic the Hedgehog movie soundtrack and other weird stuff. One even has scorpions inside it!

It's not a band I'm familiar with, but according to the news article I read about the place, the founder's band, Brother O’ Brother, did a limited release album with bits of dinosaur bone and stuff that glowed in the dark in it at $60 a piece thinking no one would buy it and it sold out in minutes, so now it's a business.

Here's the news article- https://www.wrtv.com/entertainment/inside-indy/indiana-record-label-puts-unique-spin-on-vinyl

Oh man, introducing people to The Gizzverse is so much fun. They have 25ish records and like most prog rock bands they're less about individual songs and more about whole albums. This website is a pretty decent guide to getting into them, or this reddit post has a nice flow chart you can follow. Personally I love Infest the Rats' Nest and Nonagon Infinity. The latter is 9 tracks designed to be played on loop without a clear stop or end point
