Is it cringe to wear band t-shirts in public?

>> No.14654645

If it’s a cringy band and you wear the shirt seriously then yeah it’s cringe, like if you look like a nerd and wear a Tool shirt. But if you’re otherwise fashionable and don’t look like a stereotypical metalhead, then a Bathory/Darkthrone/Mayhem/Burzum/early Ulver shirt can be kind of cool. More obscure bands maybe fall into tryhard territory.

>> No.14654653

It's O.K. if you are a fan buying to support artists you like. Or paying homage to their legacy.

Now this >>14654645 is the generic poser attitude you'd expect from try hard wannabe "cool" people, who are never going to make it.

Only if you only buy the shirt because you think they're obscure. That's how you end up with a million film students wearing swans shirts. Just go to local shows and buy shirts from bands you like or shit even go on bandcamp, explore actual independent music, and buy some t shirts to support musicians who you think deserve it. There's nothing inherently wrong with shirts from bands that everyone has heard of but they're not inherently interesting either

it will always, always be cool to wear a shirt you bought at a show. shirts for black metal bands that don't even tour are as much of a meme as joy division unknown pleasures album art shirts and the aforementioned swans shirt. anyone "cool" would be able to tell the difference between a shirt you got at a show and a dumb meme shirt.

The thing is the fans know you're a poser because obscure band shirts always go in cycles and everyone thinks you're one of 'those people' with too much money on your hands who just follows the autistic instagram band shirt trends. Plus the quality of the shirt is shit and won't fit properly.

So basically it's a lose-lose situation. Everyone thinks you're an autist and the autists will chimp at you. Plus you might get beaten up by antifa.
