Reminds me of David Bowie in that last photo. lol

Dinaro-Nordo-Baltoid? Those are the only three elements that I can imagine. Not sure which is most dominant, but I figure he's mainly Baltish?

I don't see Baltid. His face is too vertical and too strongly marked for it maybe?

Nordid + CM (likely Brunn). Interesting musician.

Great Bass-Baritone Singer, certainly up there with Bass-Baritones like Nick Cave and Ian Curtis.

WestBaltid with a Keltid touch, that moves his appearance more to the West (to Britain). although not a common face, he has that total artist vibe :) cool dude, I caught their concert in Bucharest, May 2013

IMO the Cromagnon part is West-Baltid.
