Trapped Under Ice – Pre-Order Tees

b. murphy / 07/27/2009

Somehow, I’ve slept on Trapped Under Ice. Not sure how. They are hard as fucking nails. Like in a “mosh your roommate into oblivion” way. Not that my roommate does much moshing, thankfully. Think Terror or Iron Age.

And the merch is pretty chill. This particular auctions gives you the chance to get both pre-order tees and the CD. If you are like me, and forgot to pre-order, this may be your only chance of getting this merchnow package.

I’d prefer some white tees, but black tees still get a lot of play.

You can catch these guys on the 10 For $10 Tour now. I know I’ll be paying attention when they hit the stage at the Palladium in Worcester, MA.

Ceremony – Burn This Flag Tee

b. murphy / 07/27/2009

I’m pretty psyched that as an American, I have the freedom to say whatever the fuck I want without fear of government squashing. I’m into it. In fact, I threw the word FUCK into that last phrase just because I could. I’m a big fan. I know lots of people who are big fans. I even know a few dudes who are big fans of the 2nd Amendment too (hello Ange). So go for it. Go out there and get your guns and yell your words of rebellion.

So this tee, I just don’t get. I’m not sure if this is some artsy/ironic statement, or just a literal, “burn this shirt” idea. I say artsy statement, because a simple “Burn This” would suffice with the flag picture if they were going literal. Does that make sense, or am I thinking about this too hard??

I’m all for the freedom of speech, but I don’t see myself wearing this tee to any 4th Of July Barbecues any time soon. If you own this shirt, or saw any one buy this shirt at the merch table, please post a comment. I need to know more. Hell, if you are in Ceremony or are the guy who designed the tee, please break it down for me. Thanks.

Sick Of It All – Crewneck

b. murphy / 07/27/2009

We’ve already gone over my love of a crewneck. There is little more crucial than a quality crew neck. Seriously. A great look for every season, every reason.

Here’s an amazing example. Sick Of It All Alleyway Crew design. Black with white and red ink. GREAT look. Without a doubt. New York Hardcore in your face.

The seller includes a nice little slice of history too.

I bought this at the Limelight in NYC in 1994 at was, I believe, their record release show for “Scratch the Surface” with H2O and CIV. That show was unreal. Raybeez worked one side of the stage, and Paul Bearer was on the other. I was young, and I remember seeing the who’s who of NYHC elite. So impressionable.

Good shit!

New to hardcore?

Suppose today is day one of your hardcore “life.” You have nothing. No shirts, no vinyl, no street cred. What are you going to do? Well, you could surf over to merchdirect, and buy 5 shirts. Then you could surf over to merch.com and buy 5 more shirts. And so forth. Or you could buy this entire lot and cover ALL your bases. Like Madball? Here’s a tee. Like Champion? Here you go. Maybe you have a soft side and love Set Your Goals (the new album, get it). You are covered. How about Hatebreed, Blood For Blood and Terror? Mission accomplished.

Don’t sleep on this auction. With only 14 hours to go, you could scoop for CHEAP. 16 tees for $57 currently. That’s roughly $3.50 per shirt. I assume he’ll charge you more than the current $4 shipping he has listed though. So lets guess $20. That’s still only $4.8 per shirt. You can’t beat that with a stick!
