Update: Sanguisugabogg's Devin Swank announces proceeds from "Free Luigi" shirt will go to charity

Cleveland, OH death metal act Sanguisugabogg have announced a preorder for a new piece of jarring merchandise depicting popular characters from the Super Mario Franchise video game outside of the brand's intended element. 

The design currently up for preorder, depicts Luigi killing Bowser, with the text "Free Luigi" written above, which is a tongue in cheek referencing the murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson.

This follows a previous post the band made depicting the alleged assassin Luigi Mangione in a photoshopped selfie with frontman Devin Swank and the following caption: 

Just wanted to give a quick shout out to our friend Luigi who on December 4th around 6 AM helped us load our trailer and drive with us to play a secret set all the way to Point Arena, CA which is about 2800 miles from Manhattan and after staying at the show with us all night he bought merch from every band except for the hoodies and when we asked he just replied "2 things I hate most in this world are hoodies and 3D printed 9mm".

Sorry to anyone that was upset our friend won murderball it wasn't really fair but it was awesome he gave the ball to an underprivileged orphan who received free merch from us!

 

 

As of now it is unclear if the merchandise is for the band itself, it looks to also be a new merch company which involves Swank, but it was shared directly by the band as well.
