THE View frontman Kyle Falconer claims he once used Adolf Hitler’s microphone to record songs.
But he said he wasn’t allowed to touch the historic item — which the tyrant used to give speeches at Nazi rallies.
The bizarre moment came after the Dundee band went into a studio in Brussels, Belgium, to make their second album.
And the singer, 36, told how he felt like he was in an Indiana Jones film.
Speaking on the Restless Natives podcast, Kyle said: “I used Hitler’s microphone before in Belgium.
“The producer said, ‘We will go to this studio as it’s got Hitler’s mic’.
“The guy had to put on gloves to go down the stairs and get it. It was like Raiders of the Lost Ark, it was mental.
“It came out and you weren’t allowed to touch it.
“The guy put tape on the ground I couldn’t go past when I was singing.
“But it still sounded as s***e as it did when Hitler was using it.”
Germany’s evil Third Reich Führer was known to use a CMV3 Neumann mic, which was nicknamed the “Hitler bottle”.
The View released their new album Exorcism Of Youth last week — as we told how Kyle admitted he “lost the plot” when he attacked bandmate Kieran Webster onstage during a gig in Manchester in May.
And he revealed in a BBC documentary earlier this year that he almost died after overdosing on a plane in 2016.
