Fired Up never got their due. This is true. Somehow, in the recent annals of Hardcore History, they have been grossly overlooked. Not sure how. I always enjoyed their gigs and the signing to Youngblood Records seemed promising. And the addition of Steb was huge. But things petered out. Dudes moved away, got into other bands. It just stopped happening. Which is unfortunate but perhaps timely. Like Picasso, they can now be more fully appreciated .. Or something like that. Regardless, this longsleeve from xstefahnx is great. Bonus points for the yellow and royal (not navy, eff navy) combo. Trivia: Who did the logo? I’ve always dug their logo.
this shirt is still available from http://www.young-bloodrecords.com in the royal longsleeve and green as a short sleeve. Really curious on who did the logo as well.
I believe Michiel Walrave did that logo…
Guilty as charged.
By the way, no mention of the back looking 100% identical to the Stop And Think stacked logo design? :)
I used to be into the band when the demo came out. The 7″… Not so much. Not that the songs are bad, but the production is terrible.
Michiel did an amazing job on two versions of that logo for us. Thanks Michiel!!
Sean YB came up with this design for the YB fest. No direct Stop and Think ripoff.
Hang Time – Well thats just like, your opinion man. FYI Ill Will did all three recordings for us in his garage at Dead Air (he has since relocated), and also did all the mixing. Freds snare drum on the WTLGO 7″ was something that took some work to get to sound good. All in all, for what we spent, that record sounds amazing. Sure, everything could be better in hindsight for every band, but I really dont think the production is “terrible”.
youre being very undude. the 7″ isnt so bad.
