Metal Reviews

So where do you guys buy your band shirts? I want some new ones and ebay is failing me.

I was also wondering if you guys know any bands with non-black shirts. I'm kinda getting tired of black shirts every day. PTH was an option but I failed at finding any cool ones.

Samael had an awesome reddish shirt for Solar Soul.

Behold! The Monolith (I recently reviewed their EP) have a cool white one. Can't think otherwise... I tend to get them from eBay too...

usually at the band's website or at a concert. i haven't bought any band shirts in a while. i need new t-shirts

Oh and Coheed and Cambria have a cool white shirt.

I got 3 new shirts at the Destruction show last week.

But in Toronto is this awesome little underground store. That must have, literally, over 200 shirts. Every time I am in the city I make sure to stop in there and grab a shirt or 2. It's mostly death and black metal shirts with a few thrash. But still, it's awesome.

Rockabilia has a ton of shit. They're pretty expensive, but there's some good stuff to be found. Recently bought a Candlemass shirt from there.

I usually buy t-shirts at gigs. Plastichead do sell them I think. I want Ulver's Blood Inside top, it's a white one and is generally awesome.

I've only seen them in red (which I own) and black. Still awesome shirts nonetheless.

Selection is amazing but sooo expensive.

I rummaged around and found a bunch of labels like Prosthetic Records and Relapse which had decent priced shirts. All black ones though which make me sad.

The one near the Yonge/Dundas HMV where you go down the stairs? Green walls, tattoo parlor (I think its still there?), owned by the Chilean dude? I remember they didn't always have the best selection, but its definitely improved the last few years, if that's the place you're talking about.

Anyways, typically get my shirts mostly from gigs, festivals, and distros. Occasionally small (physical) underground shops as well.

Yes that is the place. Last time I was in there and in a buying mood, I got at least 3 shirts.

Kreator - Pleasure to Kill
Sodom - 20 Years of Witching Metal
Destruction - Infernal Overkill

I know I got one more, but I can't remember...
The tatoo parlor is still there, and he does fake IDs. He openly tells everybody about them and even has them in a glass case. I asked him doesn't he get in trouble with the police and he said I just tell them that they are souvenirs.

Oh and I got a Death t-shirt and Hot Topic...

I would second Rockabilia, and also put forth:

Selection is okay, Rockabilia's is better, certainly.

Perhaps more punk oriented (shocking!), but just looking at the front page, I can see Hirax, Ghoul, Impaled, Ambiex. They've recently redone their site, though, and I might be mistaken, but it looks like they've lost a lot of stuff, which is kind of weird.

I'm checking out that rockabilia site, and Black Label Society has some pretty damn cool t-shirts.

Plastichead distribution have some cool stuff, mostly black but they have shitloads of death/black bands shirts.

I'm pretty sure I saw a white one... I know there's a red one but I've not seen the black one ha ha!

Maybe it was just a limited edition thing :(.

A friend of mine has a white t-shirt with the Voivod logo in black (the one with Korgull not just the letters) it has to be one of the coolest t-shirts i've ever seen, i actually dont have that many but i have some really cool ones that sadly are mostly worn out already:

Living Death - Vengeance Of Hell
Candlemass - Black with the cross and skull logo in grey
Metal Church - black with the logo on red
Helloween - Black with the logo on the front

Canopy has some non-black ones, ;)

NEVER shop from these people, they are terrible when it comes to shipping I ordered a Suffocation shirt from them and it never came in and they still haven't sent me my money back

They were freakin cool.. Can I order one along with your new cd?
