97a
This is a band that I always tried to get into but it just never happened. When they were out and at their height my friends and I were doing a lot of travelling to NJ for gigs. This band always seemed to be on the bill and they had/have a pretty big following but [...]
Hardcore Lives (Large)
I love those mid 90s. I love Madball, and I love that mid 90s Madball merch. The graphics are simple and hit hard. That’s the beauty of them. Even from across the room, you can tell what it is. Just big and bold. Unlike this girl’s foot tattoo I saw at the mall today. It [...]
Surf’s Up!
I was always preferred USA For M.O.D. era M.O.D. myself, but man. What a great looking longsleeve. Sleeve prints, severed limbs, and sharks in tee shirts… always a winning combo.
WWMS?
Lets talk about my friend Mike. He hates shirts with print on the back. He likes a nice one sided shirt (as do I. In fact, I love a one sided pocket print shirt … you may see one pop up someday …). You can’t fault him on that. BUT, he also likes two and [...]
Old World Vs New World
Up for grabs on ebay right now are two Bane longsleeves. One is the tour 98, the other is the tour 2008. Old vs new. And somehow, new is winning. That I just don’t get. The tour 98 is awesome. Seriously, the sleeve print is awesome. And oddly, driada_ifni has stellar feedback while partyxmonsterx10 has [...]
Mindset Longsleeves
I love Mindset. And it appears itsxdead does too. He has some excellent longsleeves up on ebay now. Plus one or two (or three or four) short sleeves. This is a good thing for all of us. I don’t get to see Mindset often enough. And as far as I can recall, I’ve only seen [...]
Sleeve Print
Sleeve print is not created equally for all. I love a great sleeve print, but some sleeve print leaves me scratching my head. Both of these feel like head scratchers. First up, is the Integrity longsleeve from winterveil. The print is just gratuitous. Does it really add anything to the design? No, not really. Overall, [...]
Black Breath US Tour 2010
My friend was talking about Black Breath the other day. I had never heard of them, but was intrigued. When I got home from work, I slipped over to their myspace page to have a listen. The metal hardcore influence was apparent, but the best response was from my wife. She commented, “wow, they sure [...]
Red X Gold X Rev
On first blush, you might say to yourself, “oh jeez, another Judge schism bootleg.” But that’s where you’d be wrong. Check that sleeve print, my friend. Amazing! I love Revelation Records. And if I’m wearing a Judge tshirt that does NOT have a Schism logo on it, it better have a Rev logo! That’s what [...]
Where My Dogs At?
From 20 feet back, you’d probably think this shirt was littered in bulldogs. But you’d be wrong. Those sleeves have some caveman artwork on them instead. Different? Yes. Weird? Very much so. In fact, the only little bulldoggy is a thin outline on in the backprint. Make sure you check out the rest of 26taylortheu’s [...]
