Earth Crisis – Firestorm Longsleeve

What can I say? Time and place? For me personally firestorm has not held up through the test of time. I know a lot of people still love this record but for me, I cant hang anymore. But at that time when it came out, youd be hard up to find someone who didnt like that record. It killed. This shirt is a perfect reflection of that time. Size XL, victory logo. now add these up with giant pants and beaded necklaces and youre all set for a time warp.

In the late 90s EC used to play alot in the Northeast and me and friends would see them alot mostly for the prospect that the stagediving would be good. So usually during thier sets we would just be goofing around, making gags, just trying to do stupid dives and shit. After one of those shows(i think they played a string of shows with Madball in a row and obv we are not gonna skip a Madball show) Karl saw me and struck up a convo with me. The first thing he said was “you dont like us very much do you?” ha. I explained my situation that it was not my cup of tea but I loved diving. I also asked him to cover DYS “brotherhood” again because they did it once years back at the Tune Inn. and then we chatted about older HC for a bit. He seemed to understand my plight. Not a bad dude but that band kinda sucks
