As will I,unless it's like those gay Evile shirts THAT HAVE NO BACKPRINT!!!!!!!!1111111


What's so great about backprints??


A lot of backprints actually put me off buying shirts to be honest. Tour dates and logos are ok, but some of the crap that bands put on the back of their shirts is laughable.

Nice artwork though guys. I think just the words faster is gooder under the band logo would be fine as a backprint. :rockdevil:

HOLY FUDGE!!! That artwork is amazing, I think you may have a problem though, it's so good it might be better than the album itself!!! I love the colours, it's really colourful which I love. Should make one of the best tshirts ever.

I have to slightly divulge from the 100% positive feedback - I think the concept is amazing, and some of the detail is great, although I'm not sure I totally dig the style. It is so busy and colourful, it took me a long time to even work out what it was meant to be. I don't think it needed to be that cluttered. Also, it looks kind of like it was edited around loads on a computer...like where is that light supposedly coming from that is reflecting in the bottom left corner?

Anywway, those are my only slight gripes - I think it is a really cool original design and suits Gama Bomb perfectly!

We were initially concerned about the mystery light on the cover ourselves and had it toned down, but we're now 100 percent happy with the colour and style of the piece! It's a kickass concept, and yeah it is very detailed and complex, but that's no bad thing.
Considering most people don't buy CDs any more, it's pretty important to give them something to pore over, and a richly detailed cover does just that. Plus, if and when it gets a vinyl release it'll look sweet!

Wait 'til you see the inlay...

Is citizen brain meant as a reference of how the brain off pinky and the brain looked and sounded like Orson Welles (Citizen Kane)?

Glowing computer artwork is usually shitty, but it looks better than the cover for Survival of the fastest though.
