Shelter – A Tale Of Two Tees
I’m going to continue a theme from earlier. The theme of when Hardcore was HARD. Not that Shelter was ever particularly hard, but Mantra & Attaining The Supreme were DAMN fine albums.

Good looking tee. Orange shirt with black ink is perfect for Halloween, but is also a great color combo no matter what you have […]
