Change that to a hat with a stage musical logo, and a metal band shirt, and this is me.

But when it comes to clothes, I can choose which ads I serve :)

I'm generally pretty covered in metal (and punk for the last couple years) band logos. It's less of a side effect of buying clothing and more of a choice to directly support artists while giving them free advertising.

Don't know what I was getting at tbh, I agree with you.

Why do I know you have a Mastadon shirt..

Nah I liked the first album but I'm really more of a Thrash/OSDM kinda guy, the progressive stuff doesn't really appeal to me at all anymore.

Oh kind sir...I love anything from Morrisound Studios and Scott Benson.. you should check out Kill Division...it's got ex Malevolent Creation folks

That's really good! Thanks for the rec!

Absolutely my man...I am going to presume you are well versed with Misery Index and Dying Fetus..if not definitely check them out. There's a decent Death metal band out of Philly called Abortion Survivor you can find on bandcamp

Wearing band logos are very different to wearing brand logos. A band logo stands for something that you love, a brand is just capitalist nihilism; completely meaningless except signaling how much your garment costs and perhaps that you are stupid enough to believe that buying a certain brand says something about you or aligns you with something. Branding is for cattle.

I have a shirt that says Democracy Delivers with a picture of a plane dropping bombs...it's not a band shirt but I think it's as neat as my band shirts...but truth be told Grindcore band shirts are usually pretty off-putting visually but most of the time strive to actually make a point
