Effigies

By jbil | Published 08/28/2011

Nice! A rare little treat from williamjames80. Its not everyday you seen an Effigies tee. I have only seen one other Effigies shirt ever and it wasnt this design. The one I saw was for a 1981 tour. Im not sure of the year of this one but you can bet its old as shit. It obviously helps too that this Nosferatu is pretty fucking cool. Ill have my eye on this one for sure just to see what it ends for. If it was bigger Id drop some heavy bids on this. This deserves to go for a lot.

Noose Crewneck

By b. murphy | Published 05/15/2011

What do people think of Noose? I’ve really only heard ABOUT Noose, never heard them. Minus these live videos I’m peeping on their blog. Something about “vegan straight edge” bands playing youth crew inspired hardcore has my blood pumping. I can get behind that, no doubt. Definitely looking forward to seing this band at Sound And Fury this summer. Have a look, get into it.

And what about this crewneck from xjimocx? Makes me think of the mid 90s, when paired with the “vegan straight edge” moniker. Feeling it! Supposedly limited to 25. Can anyone confirm?

Rodman or Pippen?

By b. murphy | Published 09/18/2010

I think everyone recognizes Michael Jordan as the official Big Dawg of the Chicago Bulls (hell, the whole NBA, really). But who comes after him? Who’s second best from the late 80s, early 90s Bulls? Dennis Rodman with his rainbow hair, ridiculous tattoos and giant piercings? Or Scottie Pippen, clean shaven, go to man? For my money, it wasn’t flash, it was Pippen who gets the nod. Dude was a great defensive player, made the all-star team more than half a dozen times and has a cool half dozen championship rings. There are four retired jerseys hanging at the United Center. One of them is his. Pippen was formally inducted into the NBA hall of fame weeks ago. No slouch. Granted, Rodman had his moments. Before he flipped his lid, mind you. The 89 & 90 seasons were two of his best, and he got rings for them (plus 3 more later in the 90s). But his wild style image wasn’t for me. Madonna, Carmen Electra, reality tv, … PASS. No thank you. Keep it classy, keep it Pippen.

As for Harms Way, this shirt is fitting for a crew straight out of Chicago. Currently bcox631 has the away version up. But if you are more of a home town guy, head over to the Harms Way bigcartel site and grab the black one (maybe, says Sold Out, but there is a note about XLs .. don’t know). Either way, you can’t really go wrong.

Billingsgate Chicago

By b. murphy | Published 06/16/2010

Does anyone ever listen to Billingsgate? I mean, anyone besides the xSTUCK IN THE PASTx crew? I’ve never even been to Billingsgate Island/Shoal off of Cape Cod. But I really should. Good history there. I don’t think I’ve ever heard their album, Reach Out either. Shout outs to an amazing varsity jacket on the cover of their album. Good looking tee here. Perfect fade. Decent condition, decent BIN. You decide.

Victory Records label shirt

By jbil | Published 03/08/2010

Seller says that this is the second Victory records shirt made back in 1989. I guess since the beginning he was feeling himself a little too much. Incase all your Integrity and Earth Crisis shirts dont have enough victory logos on them you can just cut out the middle man and rock this exclusive bulldog shirt. ugg

Millions Of Dead Cops

By b. murphy | Published 03/03/2010

Here’s an old tee from MDC.

I don’t personally think I could pull this off. But hey, that’s just me. Normally, I love an old white tee with provenance. But something, no idea what …, just doesn’t speak to me.

I need to listen to more MDC. So do you.
