Life.Love.Shirts.: A Collection Of Hardcore Clothing by Orhun Oner

REVELATION RECORDS | DEC 2017

PAPERBACK | 200 PAGES | 11" x 1" x 8"

The world of hardcore music is renowned for the preservation of its own history. The history has been well-documented in records that have been reissued, websites devoted to it, an oral history that has been passed down through generations, and through books that explore the details of the culture. This book documents an important aspect of the scene that has, until now, not been documented in any print format: hardcore band t-shirts through the diligent collecting and cataloging of hardcore enthusiast Orhun Oner. The 200 pages of Life.Love.Shirts. - A Collection Of Hardcore Clothing features T-shirts that were bought and sold in the sweaty clubs of the 80s and 90s, many of which are extremely rare. Stories from the bands, graphic artists, and those who had a hand in the production and distribution give a glimpse of the rich tradition of hardcore band t-shirts that continues on to this day.
