New Bloodlust Tees

Bloodlust is small indie t-shirt label run by the extremely dedicated Josh Lovell. If there’s one thing this guy loves its horror tees, so much so he designs and sells them himself. There are still a few tees left on sale at just $8 each however the strongest contender, his Bat Head Tank has sold out. Still I do have a sneak preview of his two latest horror tee designs (a third is on the way), each of which will be coming out on February 1st!

Coffin Bat Tee

Nevermore Tee

Each will be released on Feb. 1st and will be priced at $16 each. Printed on soft slim fit shirts in sizes XS-XL.

It’s always nice to help out a new label get their feet on the ground, looking at Josh’s earlier work and comparing it to his Nevermore Tee I have a feeling that success is just around the corner for Bloodlust!

There are 7 new tees for the guys (sorry ladies) at 604Republic, here are my two faves, absolutely super stuff…

Stoned in Wonderland Tee

Amazing stuff, I love the style, content, perfect for stoners, trippers and loons young and old lol. This should really be available for girls too, share the love :p

Zipperstein

Hey why sew when you can zip? Another great illustrated tee!

Both are available in all sizes at $18.95 each and are printed on American Apparel. These are easily the best of the new crop, although it’s worth checking all their latest tees – plenty more surprises if you haven’t been to www.604Republic.com in a while…

More T-Shirt Battles at Witzkrieg

As the “t-shirt battles” progress at the rather hilarious t-shirt site Witzkrieg.net two new contenders in the form of classic horror writers H.P Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe have been introduced to the fold. Prepare for an all new ruck between two giants of Gothic horror literature and they fight it out for their rightful place in history. Going purely on graphics with no particular literary leanings to one side or the other, horror fiction not particularly “being my bag” I’d have to say my favourite outcome is “Lovecraft Wins“. You’ll know why when you encounter the beast “Cthulhu” emerging from within, truly horrific, yet beautifully illustrated. Available at $18 each in sizes S-XXL in brown.

Lovecraft Wins! Tee

Poe Wins! Tee

Whilst I’m at it here are the latest rather intriguing results of Witzkrieg’s other t-shirt battles:

Nikola Tesla is crushing Thomas Edison.  We’re talking about a fun on bruising…

The awesome power of the Norse God Odin is throttling the Greek God Zeus!  HAIL ODIN!

Genghis Khan has Impaled the Impaler on his own spear and is most likely drinking Vlad’s blood as well.

As far as the battle raging in the Amazon Teddy Roosevelt the Bullmoose is making damn sure the Brazilian Manfish is a permanent addition to the list of extinct animals.

Baby Monster Tee

admin    T-Shirt News     Brutal Manic Apparel, cartoon tees, doodles, horror t-shirts, monster t-shirts

Check out this little oddity, cute but rather terrifying, I expect to see big things in the future from the spanking new Brit t-shirt label Brutal Manic Apparel . I also expect to see small things, ugly things, mutant things and well you get the picture ;) Here’s what they have to say for themselves:

“The aim has always been to take the doodle style artwork and transform it into something awesome and fashionable. Our original goal was to solely create the designs and then sell them to bands, but we later realized that we wanted to sell the stuff ourselves instead and from their Brutal Manic Apparel was formed. Our goal is to grow and grow with lots of fresh new designs that UK stores really seem to lack in accomplishing for some reason.”

Baby Monster Tee

A rather strange blend of cute and abhorrent oozes from every pore of BM’s Baby Monster Tee. Kinda’ like aww… ahhh… uuugh…. arrgghhh! A lavishly doodled yet uniquely weird t-shirt available for guys and girls at £12 each in various sizes and colours.

Sneak Peak At Seventh Ink’s Fall Collection

Here’s a real quickie for you, my mate at 7th Ink Matthew Johnson, has sent me over some sneak preview pics from their blog at FuryShirts.com which should give you a clue to the quality and creepy splendour of their Autumn/Fall Collection simply entitled “The Haunted Collection”. A little bit scary but a lot of fun too, these are sure to fly off the shelves like a Poltergeist ;) This is just the first series in the collection and although the t-shirts won’t be limited as such, they will run out and there will be a delay of at least a month for the next batch. So if you fancy something a little more spooky for the end of the Summer do keep your eyes peeled over their way.

History Is Vicious

admin    T-Shirt Reviews     chaz matses, funny tees, horror t-shirts, vicious history

Taking a wry look at humanity and the foibles that entails our collective Vicious History – this label offers a range of superbly designed tees with the aid of top creatives including Oatmeal, Killer Napkins, artist/musician Keaton Henson and Craig Robson. Spearheaded by Chaz Matses, a 22 year old guy from Boston, who not only has a great eye for design and for upcoming talent, he also makes sure his unique brand portrays history with a post-modern tongue firmly in cheek. Their line of hilarious tees are all hand printed by Storenvy and are all on offer at a very respectable $20.

Napoleon T-Shirt

A light hearted look at one of the greatest tyrants (an oxymoron if ever there was one) in the history of the world. Bonaparte’s looking a little worse for wear in VH’s interpretation . Still, vertically-challenged dictators and  megalomania aside, it’s a great t-shirt. Available in sizes S to XL for $20 here.

Bird of Prey T-Shirt

Not sure how this one ‘displays the evolution of birds from their origins in the Jurassic Period over 150 million years ago‘, but it’s a cool illustration all the same. Available in all sizes for $20 here.

Grave Robber T-Shirt

A lovely title and an authentic slice of typographical savvy makes this simple logo tee a cut above the rest. Speckled and grungy, probably from the dirt of a thousand open graves. Wooooohhhh…. Get the Grave Robber tee in all sizes and gory glory for $20.

Reign of Science T-Shirt

This has to be my fave at Vicious History right now, it reminds me of the strange cottage museums my dad would insist on stopping by on the way to the coast. Usually run by mad old witches with a selection of conjoined twins, humans and animals, snakes, dried and pickled and pieces of wood that were supposed to look like the devil. Okay maybe it was all just a bad dream. If you like jars of body parts then feast on this fine example of Victorian era style design, beautifully ornate yet disturbing. Hey I like it so who cares. Get this tee in all sizes for $20 here.

Check out all the latest discounts on offer via The Tee Directory and then head on over to Vicious History in order to add a little gore and humour to your wardrobe!

I’ve been a little snowed under recently, and I mean that literally, but I had to give a quick mention to the latest tee by the god of zombie tees Tony Cavalier at ZombieStars.com.

I absolutely love his latest t-shirt design simply entitled ‘Young Money Zombie Gang’. It features a plethora of undead groovies and it’s superbly drawn too and is appropriately printed in glow-in-the-dark ink! Well you need to see where you’re going when they’re after your brains.

Available now for $19.99 in sizes small to large for girls and small to XXL for guys, all sizes are 100% in stock right now if you fancy one.
