Make you're own unique T's you lazy bastards.... it doesn't take much with all the online providers and the rich source of Ae imagery... plus it'll be one of a kind!

 

(the buzz you get from people going "hey, a syro tshirt - where did yo get that???"). Truly awesome. Also, include some WATMM in-the-know meme-ery on the back and you're fucking laughing!

Uhhhhm, not a helpful answer.

Jesus christ.

Okay, the "answer" is yes, Tower Records is as legitimate as it gets. They are one of the few shops that had Syro exclusives on release, specific to Tower Records. It is where you can pre-order the best electronic music. You know how Japan has been the only country in the world to get exclusive tracks for Warp, Rephlex, Astralwerks, et al releases for the past 20 years? It's because of the pull of a tight scene in Tokyo; a scene that was orchestrated with the help of the best selection at Tower Records, whose electronic music floors spread good electronic music to the masses by giving underground music mad promotion.

I've always read Japan gets bonus tracks bc buying the Japanese edition of a CD in Japan is still more expensive than buying the import from EU or US, so the bonus tracks entice Japanese buyers to buy from the local record label, even though a lot of stores carry both domestic and import editions of the same releases.

 

there was also a massive Tower Records @ Piccadilly in London for years, and was a great place to shop, unfortunately it was sold and is now a casino I believe.

Sometimes Japanese versions were cheaper, sometimes not. Sometimes basically the same. (Haha)

 

Neto- I live in Tokyo and ordered the shirts. I think you can get the last L... IN THE UNIVERSE.

I loved going in there on a mission, loads and loads of stuff to find. Shit loads of death/grind/obscure/experimental metal/punk (if my memory serves me correctly!)

 

Great shop

Ok- I now realize the 3 L sizes were reserved before neto-- so sorry! Was/am on mobile, pain in the ass to confirm everything.

 

Also, the main Tower Records has gone down since years ago man.... Selection was bare. At least they had new stuff.

how the hell can you even fuck that up so badly

 

plus i'm pretty sure you didn't make that typography on your own, mr "do-it-yourself"

 

 

i rather pay $100 for an official shirt than $5 for that phudoshin one

Er what fuck-up?

And i just googled for the image obviously!

I'm happy with my homemade T's. They're for me, not for sale. Knickers twisted much?

Jer pic is broke, but awesome! Got note that WATMM'er autechrist's t-shirt also came in.

 

When everyone's t-shirts get to their locations, that's like an awesome group of the last of the Quaristice t-shirts ever-- "The Chosen Ones". Worth a fortune on collector's markets! It's like 303s, except the music... is within.
