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.
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
