Post-Glam Tee
A term used to describe the commercialized, watered-down form of late-stage glam metal (hair metal) that was popular from the end of the '80s through the early '90s. After Motley Crue's song "Home Sweet Home" became a smash hit in 1985, it became customary for every glam metal and hard rock band to record a slower, softer "power ballad" to sell more albums. The music industry saw these types of songs as highly profitable, making them the new selling point of glam bands; oftentimes, a label would sign a band, record an album, release a hard rock song as the first single, before following it up with a slow-tempo, pop-influenced, wave-your-lighters-in-the-air power ballad. This was a highly successful strategy that defined the careers of later glam bands like Skid Row, Warrant, Nitro, Winger, and FireHouse. As the 80s ended and the 90s opened, most glam metal hits were ballads rather than actual metal songs, to the point that it could hardly even be called metal. In fact, some early-90s metal hits, such as Extreme's "More Than Words", were acoustic ballads. By this point, actual heavy metal had already moved on, with albums like Metallica's Black Album redefining the genre in the public consciousness. Needless to say, by the time Nirvana came out with "Nevermind" in 1991, glam metal had been squeezed dry by the corporate music industry, and as grunge swept the nation, the genre went out with a whimper.

Fun and soft.
Good stuff! Although, I do have a sneaking suspicion that this is cursed. You see, whenever i dawn this top-teir, soft, stylish shirt - I proceed to pass out within 46 seconds. The mere act of making contact with the material insues the process of this countdown starting. If I do not quit contact, i will lose conciousness the exact moment the countown hits 0. And when I regain clarity, I find myself in a bathtub - never mine, but a bathtub nevertheless. In the bathtub, there is always various colours of hairdye. I then have to go back home, shirt stained with dye. Very fashionable though! 10/10

Got it for a friend! He loved it
Size was accurate, and printed text was as displayed online. Doesn't hurt that the material is pretty soft either.
mine says "ass" on it lol
Good Decent, comfortable by all means
My wife bought this for me, my only thing about the shirt, is the big Vernon on the front. I think I would prefer it situated and smaller type as if overva pocket. Other than that I love it. Seems to be of good quality and easy wearability, but I have only tried it on, so am uncertain. Thank you for making my day
