Prepare For All Out War

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 09/04/2011

The Holy Grail of Earth Crisis tshirt collecting. confinedrecords is selling the rarest ExC shirt in existence. This was limited to roughly 24 and sold by Guav (happy belated birthday) at a show in New Jersey. This is only the third one I’ve ever seen including my own and it looks like it’s in great shape for its age minus the bleach stain. If you dig the early ExC catalog, then this is worth your time.

Judge Storming Through 1990 shirt

By Casali | Published 02/09/2011

Well look at this little gem being sold by xbestoneyetx on behalf of Porter from Floorpunch. Check the description.

“Used Judge Storming Through 1990 shirt size XL on Russell Athletic tag. Shirt comes from Porter from Floorpunch as I am selling a bunch of his collection over the next few weeks. If this shirt wasn’t an XL i would have to keep this for myself, but I can’t fit into it. Porter told me he bought the shirt at the Where it went Video shoot at City Gardens in Trenton, NJ show in 1990. “

I like this one WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better than the cheesy 3D west coast weekend shirt. Also I will give 100 bonus points to everyone if Guav can come up with a flyer he drew for this one.

(Earth Crisis) Straight Jacket Mosh!

By b. murphy | Published 09/18/2010

This shirt comes to us courtesy of @guav. He noticed an awfully strange title, and we’re inclined to agree. Oh kevedynamite how did you come up with “EARTH CRISIS STRAIGHT JACKET” for this basketball jersey? You so crazy! It’s funny because he continues this description in the auction text. It’s not like it was a typo or a mistake, he keeps the party going with “EARTH CRISIS STRAIGHT EDGE XXX STRAIGHT JACKET!!!” I just don’t get it. Interesting aztec vibe from what I can only assume is a basketball jersey from 99. Anyone know what the 1231 reference is? Perhaps a basketball jersey from that New Years Eve show in Syracuse. That would make sense. I’m assuming it has nothing to do with a Taxation Code …

Thanks @guav, this one was worth a laugh.

Side note. I was hanging out with Casali last night, and he kept pronouncing Buske’s name as Boo-Ski. I don’t recall every meeting Buske in person, but I’m fairly certain it’s pronounced Bus-key. Can someone give us a pronunciation guide on this one?

WTF? JNCO Straight Edge

By b. murphy | Published 08/07/2010

I’m hoping that @Guav or @Buske have some information on these shoes from toashessaysso because they ARE BLOWING MY FUCKING MIND. “Hardline approved!”

I know JNCOs were the denim of choice for vegan straight edge warriors in the mid 90s, but I didn’t realize that the JNCO company realized this too. Seriously, the hang tag is blowing my mind. Chip or Justin, you got any info on these?? I may just pick these up for the novelty of having them. Such a weird piece of merch … 1997, yo.

Fanzinesssssss

By jbil | Published 07/31/2010

A slew of fanzine from joesm00th.
First up is a mini lot that contains a copy of TTD loyal reader Guav’s zine “Conviction”. The rest of the zines in the lot look like they could be pretty cool too. You can probably scoop this up for cheapy.

maybe this is your shit? “more old-school pride than you can shake an X at, and the usual straight edge anger X”"

and last but not leas Common Sense #1. Love that NFAA logo

Cabal 315 in 2010

By b. murphy | Published 07/10/2010

Casali posted a Cabal shirt from 1995 earlier today. I’m saying, “that’s soooooo 15 years ago.” Welcome to Cabal 315 in 2010. Guav and DJ (not sure if DJ played a part in 2010, actually. I’m sure someone out there must know … sarcasm, folks) brought Cabal 315 back around again. They screened up some tees especially for United Blood Fest in Richmond VA. A few jerseys too, as I recall. Not many were produced so if you were lucky enough to get one, don’t sell it on ebay like furyofzane. Rather, hold on to it. In 2025, the next round of vegan straight edge kids will be knocking on your door looking for it.

Calling All Vegan (Urban) Warriors …

By b. murphy | Published 07/08/2010

I hate when sellers trick you into looking at their merch by spamming band names. Now, I don’t mind if it’s relevant. But please tell me if these saucony sneakers from bombsquad206 should be relevant to Earth Crisis and Bane. Earth Crisis. Perhaps. Late 90s Syracuse probably had a plethora of urban camo clad kids. Question is, would Guav approve?

315

By b. murphy | Published 04/03/2010

Guav and the Cabal 315 Crew are back in business.

They rolled down to United Blood with some brand new basketball jerseys and tees. I hope you got a chance to pick one up. You never know when you’ll see gems like those again.

Hopefully they print up more. I can recall going to shows, and 315 tees were everywhere. Sadly, that’s not the case anymore.

In the meantime (holy fuck, how good is helmet?), you can snag this Earth Crisis 315 hood. Great forest green color.

Hardball – Progression Straight Edge Tee

By b. murphy | Published 11/30/2009

I love a quality Smorgasbord Straight Edge Tshirt!

Oh wait, I mean Progression Straight Edge. I’m not even sure if that’s a record label or just a state of mind. I’m assuming there is a connection between Hardball and Smorgasbord Records somewhere, but I can’t think of it. Voice Of the Voiceless?

Great One For One graphic on the back. Hopefully also drawn up by Guav. But I can’t vouch for that.

I interviewed Guav about a million years ago about the Hardball ep. It was amusing.

You drew the hardball 7″ design. How did that come about?

I think I was still living in Ithaca when I did that. Yeah, I think Rob R Rock and his girlfriend Krys were living with me for the summer…. He was putting that out, and I had already had that character drawn up, it was just the type of thing I always drew back then. He used it. I didn’t even know Ryan Downey (the singer of Hardball) back then I don’t think. I think it was around then that I first met him.

You can read the full interview here.
