Morgue Maestros
Remigijus and Nerijus Diechkus are brothers whose day jobs consist of cutting apart and embalming human flesh at a morgue in Vilnius, Lithuania. They are also musicians—Remigijus is the vocalist for the black-metal band Dissimulation, while Nerijus drums in a pop band called the Fly. German photographer Max Merz documented their gruesome livelihood, noting that they were extremely cordial family men who very much enjoy their alcohol. We don’t think there’s anything wrong with that, especially considering their line of work.
