Slipknot's Sid Wilson was hospitalized with 'serious burns' after a fire explosion, he shared on Friday.
The musician, 47, revealed he suffered from second-degree burns all over his face and arms after the shocking incident, which occurred while he was working on his and his girlfriend Kelly Osbourne's farm.
The turntablist for the heavy metal band took to Instagram to share an update with his fans and said he is currently in the hospital recovering as nurses dressed his wounds.
He also showed off his gruesome wounds, which included blisters and inflamed, red skin all over his arms, his cheeks and even on his lips.

He captioned his posts: 'Ouch' and 'Im going to be ok everyone. Love you all.'
