The beginning of the collection was put by my boyfriend: he screwed up with a washing machine, one of his T-shirts sat down and passed on to me. Then I began to actively go to the concerts of my favorite rock, punk and metal bands. I completely lost my sense of time, but I think it has been ten years since then.
I love T-shirts from live shows. Somehow I got to the Pelican concert. It was Sunday evening, and I had a hard weekend, and I almost gave up going to the merchandise counter. But I managed to break through the crowd, and now I have a T-shirt with a good design. Besides, I really liked Pelican then. But how much effort was spent when I could just find her in London!
Recently, many have started to get involved in hard rock - I even write about this article as a new trend. Of course, in England there is a rich history of metal culture - both music and clothing, but I want to analyze this phenomenon in a proper way. Everyone who listens to Rihanna, Beyonce or other pop stars loves AC / DC, Iron Maiden - or at least their merchandise. I also see a lot of tie dye t-shirts. And, yes, seals, a lot of t-shirts with seal prints.
High on fire. Perhaps one of the best metal teams. Design made by Santos - these t-shirts are no longer on sale.
Guns N 'Roses "Appetite for destruction" is a classic image of a glam cross on the cover of an album. This is an official T-shirt, with original stain remover traces. Vintage series.
Megadeth "Cryptic Writing" X Chaos. This is a t-shirt for the promotion of comics under the brand Megadeth. I remember how I got it - I hope my friend is still alive with an AC / DC T-shirt, which he bought with me then. These were good times.
Electric Wizard. Stunning t-shirt design. I like the fluorescent psychedelic. During the preparation of this album, my friend played bass with them.
Pentagram, awesome heavy metal band. They are considered pioneers of doom metal. I acquired it quite recently at their first London concert - and this despite the fact that they have been playing since the 1970s. I met Bobby, the soloist, at the counter with a merchandise, we had a nice chat and kissed. I hope they will come, and I can buy the rest of the t-shirts.
Darkthrone, real Norwegian black metal. From St. Petersburg to Helsinki. Here is a ride.
Saint Vitus with logo on the back. I like to collect T-shirts with inscriptions on the back: dates of tours, logo, album covers, names of songs. This is what makes them special.
Pelican, bought at a concert at the Sala Apollo in Barcelona a long time ago, maybe in 2005. This is the same T-shirt that I got so hard, although I could find it at any time in London.
Hellacopters, I then listened to them a lot. I met the band when we hung out with friends, we drank the Jagermeister together, and they gave me a t-shirt. I like the fact that they are brown and their faces are depicted on it. This is also my father’s favorite band.
Iron Maiden, T-shirt with the cover of the album "Killers". With the image of Eddie - the creepy mascot of this group.
MC5, vintage series. I like the simplicity of this t-shirt. Only three characters say everything that can be said about the history of garage rock.
Capricorns. They are considered an indie team, and this is the only indie I ever liked. Great album, T-shirt is even better! Or vice versa.
Mastodon, they play progressive metal. T-shirt cover is very cool album. Now they make more modern music and trendy designs in collaboration with artists such as AJ Fosik.
