Now we are talking. What you are looking at here is a PRE-Victory Records Earth Crisis Animal Liberation longsleeve. Before shiny silver ink bullshit and some wacky font types. Just a clean logo. Great color choice too. White longsleeves are one of the top choices.
Think about it. Think of other white longsleeves. Wide Awake Schism, Gorilla Biscuits Euro Tour, … All good tees.
As for the message, you know I support it. I’ve been vegan since summer of 1997. Not a lot of people are still vegan AND straight edge these days. Again, I could probably count all my vegan straight edge friends on one hand. I’ll make that claim again and see who comes out of the woodwork. You never know. Lots of in the closet vegans out there. I probably have more Into Another friends than vegan straight edge friends.
There could be a correlation though, now that I think about it. Most of the Into Another fans are currently veg or vegan and were previously Straight Edge. Hmm, I doubt this is a coincidence.
There will be no compromise, no more negotiating…
Hardline, yo.
I will freely admit that Earth Crisis was one of my first hc loves. I can thank Gabe Hamilton for getting me into them. I had the bullshit sparkly ink Victory version of this shirt, as well as a (XL of course) destroy the machines shirt.
99% sure that is from the euro tour for destroy the machines…which would make it NOT a pre victory shirt….I could be wrong but Im fairly certain…
I need this shirt. Classic. Absolutely not Pre-Victory though as this is from Destroy The Machines which came out several years after they had already been on Victory (Firestrom 7″).

I really misused words in this post. I meant to claim it has a “pre shitty victory records sleeve print bull shit” long sleeve. Or to just call it a “sans victory records bullshit” longsleeve. Sorry for the confusion. But thanks for all the feedback.
