Selling a Tshirt with 'wrong one to gently caress with' written on it is very different to selling a weapon, and if you can't see where the line was crossed there then you are a total fuckwit. This thread has always been full of really bad opinions, but defending a band selling weapons is peak metal thread. I would buy a t shirt with this post on it

There are a lot of themes in metal where you could legitimately run with "it doesn't matter if they don't mean it literally" but in this case Nordick posted:It's still just tryhard edgelordery, not badass, hth.

Truly a shame that the former Blondie's owner is trying to make it not a shithole. Although the only time I went to Blondie's some girl called the parking attendant the n-word.

Ah, that's why I've been getting notifications that harpos is doing shows again. I had no idea, to be honest. I'll miss the "anything goes" policy they used to have.

The dying fetus knife is extremely cheesy. It's kind of like that world of warcraft sword. My Slugdge salt shaker is classy, however.

I knew about Bill Tolley, but Martin died too? Son of a loving bitch. They were one of the first bands I interviewed during their 2012 US tour when I started writing for a goon webzine, and he was so incredibly nice and grateful.

The knife itself is pretty cool but putting toughguy bullshit "wrong one to gently caress with" is dumb as all hell. Only a goddamn meathead would think it's badass. But hey - fans of this genre are full of shitheads. So making some tiny dick feel empowered with his little knife is right in line with the camo jorts and XTREME tshirts.

I've always found the tough guy macho man aspect of metal to be extremely lame and shameful. That said, the new Dying Fetus single is pretty good, though I'm not usually a big fan of this kind of death metal so what do I know. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-79b3VblUyw

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_STTzXIMwU Went back and listened to Alaska this week and I feel like it's the most coherent Between the Buried and Me album. On later albums, they got to progressive while forgetting about cohesive song construction.
