Every Shirt XCII: Agalloch

shirt: Agalloch
size: XL (EU)
vintage: 2005
provenance: festival

A simple and minimalist shirt that follows a pattern of other folkic metal bands (see CNV, Primordial) of silver print on black fabric, this one was picked up at the 2005 W:O:A despite being a little small, because I had no idea when I'd run across an Agalloch shirt ever again. I haven't, yet, making this a doubly smart purchase if for no other reason.

On the back is the legend WE ARE THE WOUNDS, cementing the shirt as Mantle-vintage (which it is), but also making it kind of emo. Fortunately (if unfortunately for other designs), I rarely wear just metal shirts, which tends to cover up back designs in any case.
