What Will Remain?

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 05/13/2012

I can’t remember if the band screened this shirt or if New Age did. I’m pretty it was screened by the band though…this was for their breakout track “What Will Remain” that was featured on “Only The Strong 1993″. The version on that comp is good but I prefer the version from “One Truth” which is faster. The shirt was also printed in black but I feel like the white works better. The white print on black was a little hard to see what was going on. The best part of this though is that Rick has hair in the photo, probably the last time he had hair. jmmckaig continues to kill it with 90s hardcore tees.

Walk Proud

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 05/10/2012

drewtilldeath1986 continues digging and this time pulls out this old Walk Proud tee from Nemesis Records days. The front has that killer logo and the back features the artwork from the “RIP” record that was released by Nemesis. I don’t think I ever heard the full length but the 7 inch on New Age was awesome and it also launched the label. This thing is in great shape for its age and has that beautiful Screen Stars tag to boot.

I Am Not Youth Culture

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 05/02/2012

Ressurection was one of my top 5 bands that I was looking forward to seeing at This Is Hardcore last summer. Granted they had some technical problems but I thought they were awesome and it was great to scratch off another 90s band from my list of bands I never got to see as well as pick up the discography (finally). richardbladeyourself decides every now and then to dig through his closet and unload more amazing merch, usually of the New Age (obviously) or West Coast persuasion so keep your eyes open.

Outspoken Straight Edge

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 05/01/2012

Not 100% on where this falls in the Outspoken timeline but judging by the fonts, I’m going with “Survival” era. Nice 4 sided print from richardbladeyourself who always keep his shirts clean and I’m waiting for him to go digging and pull out a “Proud To Be Poison Free” New Age tee for me…hint hint.

New Age Straight Edge x 3

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 04/24/2012

Mike Hartsfield loves being straight edge. He’s made quite a few straight edge and vegetarian design for New Age Records but this is the first time I’ve seen this one before. 4 sided tee in which 3 of the sides are straight edge related…would wear proudly. beautystrk says it was picked up around 1990 which would be about the time the first Outspoken record came out…very early on in the label’s history. Also notice the lack of tribal designs that would come to flank the labels logo later on. Curious to see where this goes…again, if anyone has the “Proud to Be Poison Free” design, get at me.

Watching You Fall Only Makes Me Stronger

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 04/08/2012

I sold this same hoodie about 4-5 months back in this same colorway…in fact, I think this might be the one I sold. in_vinyl_we_trust, where did you get this? Did you buy this off of me? Well this is the most famous of the New Age Records straight edge/vegetarian designs (of which Mike did many) and came in EVERY 90s colorway you can think of. I love this design but the green on white colorway didn’t work for me. If anyone has the “Proud To Be Poison Free” shirt, get at me.

A Trial For All Seasons

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 03/30/2012

mrs-pants is giving you the chance to rock some Trial gear for every season of the year. First, you have the short sleeve which (unless it’s a reprint which I don’t think it is) is from the “Through The Darkest Days” era of the band. The cover of the record with the “Straight Edge Hardcore” banner…good look. You could wear this during the spring and summer.

Fall begins to creep in and it’s getting cooler out. Time to pull out the “Foundation” era longsleeve. Can you beat that New Age sleeveprint? Well, with a Rev sleeveprint but that’s not the issue right now. Straight Edge on the other sleeve plus NO wizard sleeves.

Well when winter is upon us (at least in Miami), you can pull out the old windbreaker which I’m assuming is from the “Are These Our Lives?” era. I know Equal Vision did windbreakers but I can’t remember if they threw their logo on them or not…pretty sure the Floorpunch windbreaker didn’t have it. Also, is it odd that the front print is on the right side as opposed to the traditional left pocket? Weird.

Mouthpiece For Your Headpiece

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 03/29/2012

Do you remember that period where every label decided they needed to make embroidered merch? It didn’t matter what it was, it just had to be embroidered. Revelation had a bunch of stuff but the only thing that sticks out in my mind was a Farside tee for some reason. New Age was in the mix as well and hawki5 has an embroidered Mouthpiece “snapback” up.

Early Strife Ending Soon

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 03/23/2012

sinkler100 has a trio of Strife designs ending soon. The first is, I believe, the band’s first design…or maybe it’s just the first New Age design but I think it’s their first as Strife. I know they also did a “My Fire Burns On” design but this was the first for the label, if not their first tee.

Then we have a pair of “Lift” non-Victory designs, one on a tee and the other on a crewneck. I had no clue that they ever made this on a crewneck and I love the green they chose for it. I feel like they could have thrown some kind of print on the sleeve but either way, good look.

Mean Season Goes To Hell

By xCHIPxSEM | Published 03/21/2012

Mean Season merch was always hit or miss for me. Luckily, face_tomorrow has one of the designs I do like. I had this same one (on a pumpkin squash color) but it was hemmed unknown to me so I got rid of it. The picture here is kinda washed but it’s listed as brown and it’s got that iconic New Age sleeve print. Gotta love the 90s and their color choices…one of the few things I don’t miss about that era.
