Casali Of Mercy

By b. murphy | Published 10/02/2010

I realize Casali posted this shirt yesterday, but I think he did it an injustice. Seller thisisnickfit deserves more credit for his humorous write up. Casali was quick to point out the cheap BIN, but he failed to mention the funny the seller added. “this is kind of too sexy for bob wilson and joe kane but they printed it anyway. respect to them.” That’s funny. You know it’s funny. It’s safe to say this shirt is NOT too sexy for Casali. You can expect to see him sporting it at the next PTA event.

Integrity – Cleveland Hardcore

By b. murphy | Published 08/21/2010

I’ve only seen Integrity once. Yeah, I know, that’s weird. With all the recent reunion gigs, you’d think I would have seen them more. I saw them play Posi Numbers back in 2003. Casali and I had been hanging out all day. I purchased a TERRIBLE fluorescent Astros cap for $4. It was a good gag hat all weekend. I ended up sitting behind Chubby Fresh during the set, and it was complete MAYHEM. This was after Integrity 2000 and before the real reunion gigs. Kids had gone a long time without seeing this band perform the old tracks. It was intense for Integrity (granted, that day Ringworm killed it too). Years later, I heard Integrity played some bar in Cambridge. Of course, I heard about it the day after as everyone was going on and on about how awesome it was. D’oh.

If this hood wasn’t navy blue, I’d gladly take it off of viciousskin’s hands. In a heartbeat.

Mother Of Mercy

By b. murphy | Published 08/04/2010

Mother Of Mercy are an nontraditional band with an nontraditional sound. This is evident whenever they play or get out. They keep the nontraditional vibe going through their shirts too (here’s one example that isn’t TOO radically out there. Peep some of the stuff on allinmerch to see some out there stuff). Sadly, that doesn’t always work for me. But thanks to viciousskin, I can pick up a hood that SPEAKS to me. PS. Would wear a “MOM Rules All” tank. Best rip off design of Sound And Fury. This one is size XL, Casali approved.

No Remorse

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Casali mosh. Never a fingerpoint, nor a stage dive. I think that could change. When we roll into Sound And Fury and Naysayer kicks into Affliction, I can see Casali losing his shit. This music has Casali written all over it. Seriously.

If he wasn’t a medium, I’d gift him with this lot from soulvice88. Grab a hat and a tee. For cheap? Yes please. Limited edition United Blood merch too. And if like Casali, you are not a medium, Naysayer has merch all over the internet. You may not find the UB shirt, but you’ll find plenty of other goods (Altercation tee, oh word). No doubt, scoop!

Casali And Mother Of Mercy

By b. murphy | Published 06/27/2010

When Casali decides he likes a band, it means he REALLY likes a band. He then proceeds to back them hard and scoop up a lot of their merch. This tee from billalk3 doesn’t seem like a tee Casali would back though, minus the font color. Casali would be all over that font. Dude is a little more subdued than that graphic, a little more laid back. Plus, Casali is more of a black tshirt kind of guy. You know? This won’t stop him from scooping up tons of Mother Of Mercy gear when we see them at Sound And Fury Fest. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised to see Casali doing some heavy pitting during their set. Dude can mosh**.

** I’ve known Casali for nearly 10+ years and have never once seen him mosh. True story. Continue reading »

The Power Of Expression

Anyone find Casali a black WW Bl’ast tee yet? He’s still looking…

Perhaps to tide him over, you could buy this boot of of hottdogg9000, and send it his way. Better yet, buy it and keep it for yourself. Then one day when he really needs it, you’ll have something to hang over his head.

Not sure why he’ll need a mid 2K boot, but hey, you never know, right?

Whatever It Takes

First, Happy Birthday to Mr Chris Casali. All around great dude. Everyone make sure to wish him a happy bday (you can hit him up at @collectionspace if you want).

He loves Battery. Not nearly as much as Barrow or Blair though.

And not sure anyone loved this era Battery as much as Blair. The second lp left me feeling …
