New Age president and CEO, richardbladeyourself has listed another gem from his archives. I’m liking the maroon. I’m liking the fading on the back. Pretty sure I will be bidding on this one, so bring your A game people.
Madball weirdo jacket BIN
orgasmatron69 brings us a very strange Madball item. I dont think ive ever seen this before. Im not sure if I ever want to see it again. Its from the NYHC 7″ era judging by the art
Who knows the story with this thing? Official? Have you ever seen someone wearing this in the wild? Is this a good BIN price?
Synchronicity
Holy shit, I have to give props to Cruel Hand on this one. They took a classic LP cover / tshirt, and flipped it Cruel Hand style. This is just a sharp one. For those who don’t know, this design is the Synchronicity LP by The Police. Yes, Sting. And his tantric yoga sex. As a kid, we would spin Dream Of the Blue Turtle. Definitely not as good as Synchronicity, as if that is surprising… I’d highly suggest grabbing this tshirt from lifextime, and then also snag the pants. Such a good combo. I know Halloween has just passed, but it’ll still be relevant next year, I promise.
Spirit Filled Hardcore
I stumbled across these tshirts from skatenoize.com. He has a few cool boards. All hand painted. That’s pretty chill. But he also had these tshirts that were both over 15 years old in MINT condition. And his descriptions give the most detail ever: who took the pics, who drew the art, … I figured he was either a superfan or actually in the band. Granted, I never heard of Focused at all so I hit up old google and wikipedia.
That’s when I stumbled on the phrase “spirit filled hardcore” and vomited a little in my mouth. Ugh. I don’t mind Krshna (cro-mags, youth of today, …) or Buddha (the first step), but Jesus? Fuck no. Can’t stand that guy in my hardcore. Those bands are always talking about how Jesus saved them … from their suburban middle class lives … Ugh, do not want. At least Shelter was singing about bettering humanity. And the Cro-Mags could have probably used some saving …
Godcore. Blah. 99% sure the seller is the lead singer of the band. And I wish I had never googled any further. Somethings can’t be unlearned or unseen. I’ll never forgive my friend for tricking me into listening to Strongarm and that was at least 15 years ago. If you don’t mind, I now have to go clear ears with a little Slayer.
And yes, this shirt does have a barbwire jock strap … Ooooffff
