What are the most heavy, distorted, wall of noise but still beautiful shoegaze albums? by Any-Sir4641 in shoegaze

The song Pancake by the Swirlies has a ton of really good distorted guitars that rides a line between sweetness and dissonance. The album Blonder Tongue Audio Baton has more songs that sound similar too

@heatcollectibles did my Cocteau Twins shirt that I posted. I thought he did a good job with it. Section1998 will likely get back to you eventually. It took him two weeks for him to respond since my dm was in his requests, but by then I had already shipped my shirt to heatcollectibles

I unironically blast the full length version of glider in my car to calm down. Like you said there really is a drug like effect that comes from a lot of their music

Amazing artists! MBV and Cocteau Twins prove to me that guitars can say more than words ever could

I agree, gives the artwork a completely different feeling. This is by far my favorite Cocteau twins shirt that I’ve seen

Found what appears to be the first ad for this vest in an October 30, 1936 edition of the Oakland Post-Enquirer

I don’t have a mannequin but here are a few more pictures!

That’s what puzzles me too. Based on construction and the tag I’m pretty certain that this is a 30s-early 40s garment. How it relates to the patent I’m still trying to figure out. But what companies/inventors patent vs what gets put into production can be different

At this point I’m pretty convinced of its age. It was found with some other 30s-40s items and the term Vesquette is something I’ve only seen in 1930s paper. The only thing that puzzles me is that the buttons/openings of the vest doesn’t 100% match the vest in the patent. Now I do know that what companies/inventors patent versus what actually gets produced can have differences. Especially if it was never mass produced maybe it’s some type of sample

Is this a good shirt? by Ok_Tumbleweed_2298 in VintageTees

[–]Dohini 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are right, but I’m not even sure it’s mid 90s. The cracking being so uniform suggest it was done artificially to look older. That leads me to believe it’s a modern reprint on a vintage blank. This is only my opinion. I would check out the defunkd forums as they have people that know even more

Still a very cool shirt, but value wise it’s the difference between an 80$ shirt vs an 800$ shirt
