A tattooed person suspends from hooks, laying flat, one leg higher than the other. Their head is back, and they seem to be smiling, dark hair dangling like an anime character.

  • A Personal Story About Significance and Triangle Bromance

    Polareyez was kind enough to submit this photo of their four day old solar brand.

    triangle brand

    Now this photo hits home for me because back in 2008 when I was but a mere 17 years old, My best pal and I were featured on ModBlog by Shannon. Here’s the link to the original post. When you get done cracking up at my baby face, you’ll notice that we’re also branding triangles on each other. Believe it or not that was one of the more significant modifications in my life. The triangle symbolized my friend and I taking in another friend on a special night. The branding was highly ritualized and we took the photos specifically to share with BME. It was a really important bonding experience with one of my best friends that we’ll always remember. I actually remember the day I saw it on ModBlog thinking that it was the most significant day of my life, and that I belonged to this community.

    I’m sharing this little story with you because while this is not the most intense, extreme, eye catching, or conventionally “beautiful” piece of scarification…you can never tell the weight that something so simple can carry. My little triangle changed my entire life, and you can’t even see it today. In life you never seem to know when your turning points will be, but the thing that I love about this community is that you always have a reminder of where you’ve been.

  • Double Navel Piercing From The Archives

    While snooping around the Very Unusual Piercings I found this photo which is…very unusual. A double navel piercing uploaded by SaintMary in 2004 that is a bit more interesting than it might sound.

    Two is better than one.

    Now since this is an older photo (2004 is so ancient right?) if this has been covered before I apologize and give you permission to yell at me in the comments. Click through to see the closeup!

  • A Holiday Poem From BME

    Happy Holidays to all of our readers!
    Here is a nice photo to set the mood. Artist credit goes to Michael Kozlenko in Tel Aviv.

    Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the land
    Not a scalpel was carving, not even some glans.
    The rigging was hung from the ceiling with care,
    In hopes that Falkner soon would be there.

    The clients were happy with new snugs in their ears,
    While they sat at the bar, satisfied with their beers.
    “A few days off are nice” Said Coyote with a smile.
    Unfortunately he hadn’t updated ModBlog in a while.

    When out of the blue, after holidays came
    He had some free time to showcase some pain
    Back to the galleries! He said with excitement.
    Finding new photos gave him tons of enjoyment

    More implants! More piercings! More cutting and branding!
    New updates! New interviews! New pictures soon landing!
    You could tell Coyote’s promise was sincere
    and ModBlog should be in for a hell of a New Year!

  • Modified Music Monday!

    Ran across Only Flesh the other day. They are a band local to me (Pittsburgh,PA) that really puts body modification at the forefront. The video features a ton of suspension/ pull stuff and the singer is heavily modified. Its nice to see bands going the distance to put on an unforgettable show and a unique aesthetic.

    From the lead singer Revina Lower
    “Only Flesh the sleazy rock n roll band with a nasty habit of hanging from hooks is back with a brand new video fr “crucivixen” off of their last release “…from the gutter to the grave” on Rotten Records. directed by Screaming Butterfly it contains all the thing youve come to expect from the glam trash hellions.. babes, blood, and… well what else is there? catch their disease at www.facebook.com/onlyflesh

  • Ear Pointing By Implant

    Now I may have just been slacking on my ear pointing updates, but I don’t believe I’ve ever seen ear pointing done this way before (feel free to post in the comments if you have and I’ll update!).
    earpointI have never personally performed ear pointing but this looks like its much less invasive (albeit a bit less extreme looking) than conventional means. I don’t have much background on this photo, if anyone can shed a little light in the comments by all means do so!

  • Transverse Vertical Lobes featuring Mega Tragus!

    Tobias shared this photo of his new Transverse Vertical lobes. If that sounds too confusing just take a peek and see what we’re talking about.

    From the bottom up and out!

    These were done by none other than our buddy Sean Phillips.

    Also there is for sure something to be said about that completely rad mega tragus piercings! We actually covered them before but they’re looking better than ever with all that bling!

  • Joke’s On Me!

    Normally my piercer mind would group these self done permanent piercings on Stormchaser into the “That’ll never heal” category. I am however frequently surprised at the things folks can keep long term. These are all seven years old! If you’ve never heard the term “Permanent Piercing” take a look at the BME Wiki page for it.

    Surprise! Its not genitals! Threw you a curve ball this time.
