You don't play in a band called Cannibal Corpse without expecting to raise some eyebrows at the very least. Unfortunately, being part of the band didn't do guitarist Pat O'Brien any favors when his home was investigated following an arrest and police found multiple firearms and human skulls.
In a tweet on Monday, a Twitter user joked If only we could have seen this coming, sharing screenshots of an article about the incident from
Headline reads, More than 80 firearms and three skulls found in Cannibal Corpse guitarist's home, and the playlist lists the top 5 songs for the band on the streaming site, but swaps out two titles for ones that fit the situation: I Have Guns in My House, For Murder is one and My Home is Full of Skulls is the other. While the band is known for shocking song and album titles (the number one song Hammer Smashed Face is a real song by the band), the song titles are purely jokes.
More Than 80 Firearms And Three Skulls Found In Cannibal Corpse Guitarist's Home
Reported that the guitarist had called relatives speaking about extraterrestrials arriving and the rapture, before his house burned down. As the headline states, the investigators found 80 firearms (50 of which were shotguns), weapon parts, and the three skulls. O'Brien had broken into a neighbor's home with a knife, where he was later tased by an officer. His house caught fire shortly after, and explosions caused by ammunition made it difficult for firefighters to put out the fire.
Following his arrest, the band released a statement on Facebook expressing support for the guitarist and gave an update on his mental health. [W]e all want nothing but the best for our brother and partner, Pat, the band wrote. [W]e wanted everyone to know that Pat is getting the help he needs and appreciates the love and support from Cannibal Corpse fans around the world.
Journalist Kim Kelly, who's covered metal (as well as labor), responded to the tweet writing that while death metal is one of the most popular subgenres in metal, stories like this are few and far between.

. The death-metal mainstay, who has played with the band since 1997 and even once played in Slayer for a spell, was arrested last Monday for burglary and assaulting police as his home burnt down in Florida.
After putting out the flames, fire marshals discovered a makeshift armory in his rubble. He had 50 shotguns, including one that was illegally sawed off, 10 semiautomatic rifles, including ones like AK-47s, two Uzi-style firearms, 20 handguns and two flamethrowers. When the house was burning, there were reports of ammunition going off inside, set off by the heat, though no one was hurt.

The guitarist’s arrest report detailed the night’s events. Just before 7 p.m., he broke into his neighbor’s home. When the people inside asked him to leave, he shouted, “The rapture is coming.” He subsequently pushed a woman to the ground and ran to the backyard, with neighbors calling 911 and finding O’Brien hiding behind a fence. After police asked him to surrender, he charged at them with a knife. They subdued him with a Taser and noticed his house was on fire. He was booked under charges of aggravated assault on a police officer and burglary.

Sharon Stone Paid Leonardo DiCaprio's Salary in 1995 When the Studio Refused to Cast Him; DiCaprio Says: 'I Cannot Thank Her Enough'Cannibal Corpse’s Rob Barrett has engaged in arguably the greatest act of humility possible for a musician: he has asserted that another member of his band plays his instrument better than he does.
Eclectic Arts recently spoke to Barrett about his new co-guitarist in Cannibal Corpse, Erik Rutan (Hate Eternal, ex-Morbid Angel). Rutan produced five of the band’s last six albums — including their forthcoming
— meaning he’s basically been the sixth member of Cannibal Corpse for the past fifteen years anyway. When the group needed someone to replace Pat O’Brien, Rutan was the natural choice. So, unsurprisingly, Barrett says Rutan has been “a great fit, ” and that he Cannibal Corpse’s newest member “respect each other”:

“We’ve been friends for so long, and I always thought, like, ‘Wow, man. It would be cool to do a project with Erik some day.’ It was always just in the back of my mind that it would be really cool doing something with him instead of just working with him on recording stuff. And now we’re in a band together. So, yeah, it’s just a great fit. “…I’m not intimidated by him at all. I respect him as a guitar player, and I think we work well together. I respect his opinion, he respects mine, so I think we’re both benefiting off of playing in a band together, ’cause we respect each other.”
Then Barrett really went the extra mile in praising his new bandmate: “I will add that he’s definitely the better guitar player — I won’t shy away from saying that — but it is what it is. We both have different things to offer. I’m not the best guitar player, but I think my strong point is songwriting. So that’s where I come in.”
I’ll leave it to the peanut gallery to debate whether or not Barrett’s assessment of his guitar skills vs. Rutan’s is accurate. I just find Barrett’s modesty to be, I dunno, charming. Which may be the first and last time anyone ever describes anything Cannibal Corpse-related with that particular adjective.
