The what's going on in Thrash thread

Where would you guys buy t-shirts from if you were mail ordering?
I'm not sure I like what's available here.
I tried AFM/Flots and their euro price is astronomically high.
I tried EMP (Jnr's label) and his shit is massive overpriced and I'm not sure if all if it is entirely genuine.
I had a quick search of Amazon but found not too much I liked.
Overseas postage may be a killer but it's mostly only when companies used UPS, so I thought I'd hunt around but there is a butt load of sites out there many of which look a bit dodgy.
Umm. Usually order from Label sites. You're right Flotsam's label charges a ton. Relapse Records has some good stuff. But it's tough these days. Especially for you guys!

I can't even imagine.

Yeah I'm not even going to try to imagine. There are some people I'll give a complementary listen when they do something not metal, I may even buy it, but Jeff can stick it where the sun doesn't shine.

I'll check out Relapse, thanks. The only local store I know of that sells this stuff is getting orders shipped during these times so it's possible, but I can't help feeling that I'm just settling for something that's in stock. I'm kind of thinking of a Death shirt, either Spiritual Healing or Scream Bloody Gore, but that's only because the guy doesn't have anything else great in stock. Maybe if I can find someone with reasonable shipping in the US they might have better stock levels.

Kind of amazing how they made it through the transition to a more modern sound and pulled it off.

Yeah I think they have done well. They are obviously still power metal, and they obviously still have some of the cheese power metal bands are famous for, but they have something else too. The artwork of the new album looks great, it looks like a real artwork, the music really seems to pack a punch and they don't seem to be just going for the wank factor so many other power metals bands are. Although in saying that, there is somewhere a 12 min version of that Skyfall single. Apparently it was leaked onto the net but was quickly deleted so there is still some wank left out there when they can write a 12 minute single titled the same as a James Bond movie and still expect everyone to buy it. :)

Oh damn! One of my top bassers and really nice guy. Glad he's doing ok!

I knew a guy that decided to live with he throat and neck like Jason's. I never got into the depths of things with the guy on why he never chose surgery but for whatever reason he didn't and lived with this massive neck that would occasional swell to a lump like an apple under the skin.

Yeah if you want Death, Relapse had a lot of it last time I was there. Pretty cool too. It seemed like it was selling pretty good though.
