TIL there's a company in Indiana that makes custom vinyl records for bands that contain things like liquid and sand (and even weirder stuff) inside two sides of a transparent playable 33 1/3 disc. (romanusrecords.com)

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!

I feel like these have to be more fragile than a normal record since they're hollow and I really doubt sand or water are a good thing to suddenly have spilled into your record player

I doubt I'd play one if I had it anyway. It's more a collector's item thing. If I was a big fan of Mötley Crüe, getting a record of theirs filled with blood would be pretty cool.
