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. While you may never have enjoyed those wacky hare krshnas, you have to admit those albums were good (not as good as YOT, I’m not that caught up in this post). This first shirt resembles the goodness of their first few albums. Clean image, probably an image direct from some sacred text. On a white shirt too. Great look.
This second tee comes from the weirdo “wish we were played on MTV” days. Yeah, that album with the Birthday Ska Song. What the hell is that about, anyway?
Needless to say, this shirt resembles that crappy time for Shelter. I mean, first off, it’s a ringer tee. Eff a ringer tee (I listed exceptions the last time around. I missed a few, super shout out to the Straight Ahead Tour ringer. Not sure how I forgot that one). Also, check that image. Ooooofffffff. Not cool. Really, it’s the “SHELTER” font that completely loses me. It’s just wrong, so wrong. Everything about this tee screams “Saturday Morning Cartoon from the mid 80s.” In fact, the character pictured could be Captain Caveman, or at least a member of the Hair Bear Bunch.
Oooooffffff. Nuff said.
