My first Kutte, I couldn't decide on a backpatch (Even though I have 4 of them) so just put a bunch of small ones for bands I love, I love so many different genres it was hard to pick who to have and not to have, I might end up changing it around a little one day or just make a couple more jackets with some spare patches I have.
Zango on
Cool vest !
Judas Priestess on
nice variety, I like the Jugulator patch.
Nater90 on
Thanks guys, Me to Judas I think the albums got killer artwork & its a great album.
hateandwhiskey on
Jugulator is an awesome album. If you have not heard it, go get it, then get Demolition. Cool vest!! and all the flames and whatnot.
Nater90 on
Fuck yeah it is! I love Rob don't get me wrong, But Ripper rips! Thanks mate!!
Xenaus on
Nice BG banner!
Nater90 on
Thanks mate, It had to go on there its BG nuff' said!
When I saw BG in the sidebar I thought it was Black Goat, since I was listening to that a few days ago. :x
PEELO on
Damn that Blind Guardian patch is beautiful !!! I want one too, would you possibly know where i could get one?
Nater90 on
Thanks mate, I got it from Abyss Records but they no longer carry them
jegerdødinne on
Hail Vinnland! Large variety, still cool.
Nater90 on
Hail Vinnland \m/ Thanks mate, I like variety of genres so thought I'd make my jacket the same way
zhangxinyi1115 on
Why not sew a backpatch? It would be even more complete whole jacket.
Nater90 on
I love so many bands I couldn't pick one as a backpatch was so hard picking the small ones let alone a backpatch :D My next jacket will have a backpatch tho, Doing Mayhem & Morbid only tribute \m/
zhangxinyi1115 on
This jacket can be seen through you like a lot of bands, spanning a variety of styles, really hard to choose.
Nater90 on
I call it my genre jacket :) So many different styles I love so it suits it down to a T
Wrathchylde666 on
Cool diversity. I usually prefer back patches to bring the whole thing together, but yours works without it. Btw, looking forward to seeing your Mayhem tribute!
Nater90 on
Thanks mate! Once I get a jacket I'll post some layout ideas I'm thinking of.
Gromash on
Hammered patch is the best! What's the green flag though?
Nater90 on
Thanks man, The green flag is for Vinland aka what the Vikings called North America, I have it for Type O Negative and for my love of Vikings and Viking Metal :)
Nine Turning Mirrors on
That huge-ass Blind Guardian stripe is fantastic!
Nater90 on
Thanks dude, Yeah I love it to! Great patch and band :D
Portal on
Nice mix of bands! Some of my fav heavy/power metal bands on there :)
But you could've uploaded possible layouts with those 4 BP's you have on stash, maybe the community can help you decide ;)
Nater90 on
Thanks mate :) Yeah thought about posting different layouts for it but just wanted to get it done and wear it to a gig! Some good memories
shamash on
I fkin love your mix! Is that John5 patch on the back :D ?
Nater90 on
Thanks man, Hells yeah it is!!! I fucking love John 5
Jackal_Embrace on
VINLAND! Great vest!
Nater90 on
Cheers mate!
duke on
Nice vest man, the helloween and the rhapsody patches are awesome
Nater90 on
Thanks mate! Its my favourite Rhapsody album and Helloween because they kick major fucking ass too!
ReskP on
Great kutte ! I love the layout on the top back, and that Blind Guardian patch kick ass !!
From wich band is the green flag patch please ?
Nater90 on
Thanks man, Yeah love my BG strip :) It has a couple of meanings, Its the flag for Vinland (What the Vikings called North America) I have it for Type O Negative, for Vikings because they kick ass, and for Viking Metal in general.
Reborninblasphemy666 on
Awesome vest, man! I really like the Vinnland patch. I was listening to October Rust earlier; that album is a classic for sure.
Nater90 on
Thanks bud, I fucking love October Rust, Yeah it will be a classic for sure! One of my personal favorites by TON
Reborninblasphemy666 on
Totally! Since I still have a Walkman, I got one of those C120 cassettes and put October Rust on one side, Twilight Of The Gods by BATHORY in the other side. The tape ended up getting eaten up by friend's shitty ghetto blaster, unfortunately, haha.
Nater90 on
Walkman for the win! I still use a Discman, So bad ass! Oh nice great idea for a tape, need to get myself a copy of Twilight of the Gods, Awwww shit that sucks man!
Reborninblasphemy666 on
I have a Discman, too. TOTG is an absolute classic! I think that album is a little underrated compared to Blood On Ice and Hammerheart. I have the original Black Mark CD pressing of it. I found a pretty sweet sale on Ebay for them.
The guy was selling the S/T album, Hammerheart, Twilight Of The Gods, Purity Of Essence, and Nordland II on CD. I bought the CDs for about 35 bucks. I have all the BATHORY CDs (3 originals; the rest are 2003 re-masters); 3 vinyls (Under The Sign Of The Black Mark, Blood Fire Death Pict. Disc, The Return....), and one cassette. The only thing I noticed that was different was the mastering of Requiem. The drums on the re-master sounds louder, and there's more treble. My cassette copy of Requiem has lower drums.
Nater90 on
Killer score mate!!!! Ah interesting, I hate getting remasters unless I really want the album. Yeah some good tracks on TOTG I've listened to most of it on YouTube.
I often wonder what Bathory would be doing now if Quorthorn was still with us.
Reborninblasphemy666 on
Another Black Metal/Thrash album probably. I think Octagon and Requiem were probably closest to catching the spirit of the earlier albums. It would also would've been very interesting if Quorthon put out another solo album. I actually run a BATHORY fansite (http://www.geocities.ws/bengarcia/bathoryrules/main.html). The site is viewed best in Firefox. For some reason IE browser scales it down. Chrome, Firefox and Opera browsers should display the site the way it's intended.
My BATHORY vinyls are 2003 re-prints, too. I'd like to get an original BATHORY shirt; it's the one where the goat has a full neck. The later pressings are cool, but there's something about the whole goat that seems more kick-ass.
Nater90 on
Wow that's fucking awesome bro! Checking it out at the moment.
Yeah I need to get myself some Bathory shirts and LS's, Tempted to get the goat as a tattoo.
Reborninblasphemy666 on
Thanks, man! I designed the site, as well. It's good to see there's still some free web hosting services out there. Band pages back then, in the '90s, just seemed cooler. Nowadays, there's blogger pages and wordpress blogs for music; there's really no creative design put into it. A wordpress page wouldn't have done it justice. I just had to do a BATHORY tribute site. It seems pretty weird that most people my age are conveniently tweeting away, while I'm still talking about HTML coding and e-mailing, haha. The basics just seem to work better for me, I think.
It seems Black Mark doesn't update their inventory that much. I'll have to e-mail them and see when they'll get more shirts in. I bought the last BFD long-sleeve a couple years ago, and they haven't re-stocked yet! I'm hoping they'll re-stock with some more shirts. I need to spread the goat propaganda, haha. One planet under the black mark, haha.
Nater90 on
That's sick as man, I created a forum back in the day that was hard as fuck.
Yeah for sure, Sounds like a plan mate!
Reborninblasphemy666 on
Yeah. I figured I'd make the website because there's already a gazillion BATHORY fan forums and threads. Just recently there was a Quorthon tribute, where bands talk about the significance of BATHORY in the metal scene (http://www.metalcrypt.com/pages/interviews.php?intid=388).
The funny thing is I'm usually very late when it comes to bands. I listen to everything, though. Most metal-head friends of mine (I'm referring to their first impressions here) are like, "Ben, you're a true metalhead! You have a Kreator shirt on, three feet of hair, a kutte on your leather jacket and blah, blah, blah". That's until they look at my CD collection, haha. They're usually very surprised to see my very diverse un-true, pop music CDs; by pop music, I'm referring to groups like ABBA, and Ace Of Base. So, I guess I lost my credibility of being true, hahaha.
Then again, I was like that at fourteen years-old. I'm not saying that the music isn't important—it is—heck, I'm still the same metal-freak I've always been. It's just there's something about first getting into extreme metal at that age where image is sort of important. On average, I buy more metal albums than I do merchandise, haha. I guess it comes with working and more or less prioritizing finances. It's like, "Oooh, that shirt looks cool! Oh, wait. There goes that band's new album, I think I'll get that instead". But, of course I try to get a shirt whenever I can, haha.
Nater90 on
Awesome, Looks great.
We all have a diverse range when it comes to music, I myself appreciate some classical music, I define myself as me, I get labeled a metalhead but I'm only human, I am what I am.
I get more CDs then I do any other form of merch, CDs last forever if you look after them.
Reborninblasphemy666 on
Indeed, man. I love classical masters: Richard Wagner, Gustav Holst, Beethoven, and some Mozart. Not really big on Mozart, though. Labels are only for fashion and clothes, haha. Speaking of clothing, I'm painting the BATHORY goat in the back of my leather jacket. My parents don't really get it because my hair would be covering the whole thing, anyway, haha. I've been doing a lot of sketching and planning for it. The tricky thing is painting it on; any little fuck-up could be noticeable, haha. Like having the goat look like a pissed off bunny, or kangaroo? (like this cover here: http://northernisolation.files.wordpress.com/2011/07/cover.jpg?w=400&h=400) Haha. Anyway, I got the Rammstein logo, and Vinnland flag on my right sleeve of my jacket.
Nater90 on
Nice nice, Looks like a kangaroo and a rabbit had sex....Haha! Looks good tho, I explained to my Dad the Vinnland patch and he thought it was cool, Parents don't get hair anymore...My Dad used to have hair to his ass now he's almost fully bald! Sadly I cut mine to a number 4 because work was cracking the shits.
Reborninblasphemy666 on
Oh, damn, haha. The same thing happened with my brother. He cut his because of his job, although he didn't have to. My parents think it's cool, but they just don't get how I could have any design on the back of the jacket worth noticing if my hair is covering it, haha. I can kind of see where they're coming from on that aspect. Then again, the design will be noticeable when I ride my Harley Davidson around (well, I don't have a motorcycle yet, but I'm going for my license soon). That's the other tricky thing; I would have to find ways to put my hair in the helmet, haha.
My dad's also a Type O Negative fan. He likes a lot of Classical music, so that explains why he'd like the more epic albums in my collection. I remember playing The Return... album, and my dad didn't really like Death Metal BATHORY, haha. He does love the Viking BATHORY albums, though. His favorite is Blood On Ice.
Nater90 on
Damn! Yeah everyone likes mine short but I beg to differ haha, Oh nice! Best of luck mate hope you get it.
Haven't showed my Dad the Viking Metal albums by Bathory yet, He enjoys some of the tracks off Octagon and loves the cover of Kiss' - Deuce because he's a massive Kiss fan (He got me into them & one of the bands that progressed me to! Thanks Dad haha) My Dad likes "heavy" to a certain degree, I say the spoken word part from Mayhem's - View From Nihil and bust into singing it and used to mosh in his face and he'd tell me to fuck off and smile.
StaleLife on
Nice jacket man! Your like me I have so many back patches but can never decide due to my love of different genres. Nice type o patch by the way.
Nater90 on
Thanks man! Yeah was to fucking hard to decide, Cheers.
TooFastForLove on
I call this...one jacket countless genres! :P
Nice one mate keep it up!
Nater90 on
That's the point buddy, All genres that influenced me into various genres I love!
Thanks dude \m/
ThrashLD17 on
Nice Patches, nice vest! Up the Irons
Nater90 on
Thanks cobba, Up the Irons \m/
SMdevastator666 on
questionable choices, just my opinion nothing personal.
Nater90 on
All good man we all have different tastes, Suits me and that's all that matters.
TovarishPior on
That DK patch rules !
Nater90 on
Thanks Tov! But which one haha, The big one on the front I got off Nuclear Blast Records, The strip on the back I got from Utopia Records.
Killerbeast on
Awesome Vest. Thats a pretty cool Ozzy Patch!
Nater90 on
Thanks mate! Yeah love Ozzy! and the patch is bad ass.
Stormbringer81 on

BagOfLoot on
Good mix, mate! DK! Hope you like Quartz if you check them out!
Nater90 on
Thanks mate! Fucking love DK.

DungeonDweller on
Fuck yeah.
Nater90 on
Thanks mate.
stefke on
not really a fan of jackets without BP.
cool bands (some not so cool bands)
not really my taste
but the most important thing is: that you enjoy it ;-)
Nater90 on
Now that I look back and reflect about it, I could have, I should have, I can't be fucked changing this one, Instead, I make kutte number six haha.
Thanks mate, I do love it, I don't give a fuck about anyone who hates on it, I'll happily mix genres up and have an obscure jacket, This reflects who I am and that's just act :)
NocturnalOccultist on
needs more shitty patches and shitty pins! >:)
Nater90 on
Haha :D I can only fit a couple more patches on, But I can most definitely fit heaps of pins!!
DarkValkyrieofDeath on
i like the viking flag, A LOT, i want some sort of flag on my bm vest but im not sure what to choose or where to put it, also i know the stress of not being able to choose a backpatch, i finally picked a controversial one for my bm jacket, one that might get me beat up at shows xD not gonna spoil it yet i still have to upload that vest xD also i really like your metallica and slipknot patches
Nater90 on
Cheers mate, Can't go wrong with Norwegian and Swedish flag, But depending where the BM bands are from that you have.
Haha, Sounds good, Keen to see that. Thank you.
DarkValkyrieofDeath on
a norwegian flag would be interesting, i have to do some digging into my heritage to actually figure out if theres norwegian in there, my sister suspects there is, would def feel more connected with black metal if that were the case, then also i could use the norwegian name i was thinking of for my black metal band and feel better about it, rn ive got another idea for it thats more ancient and obscure, also i have viking heritage so i love all things associated with that, especially viking metal, as for black metal i find myself more drawn to german bands or bands that have lyrics in german despite not being german, but german flags arent really that interesting and could possibly be weird and offensive, sorry for the ramble xD
Nater90 on
That's really cool! You'd have some French somewhere to right?
You don't need to be Norwegian to use a Norwegian name for your band, You're passionate about something do what makes you happy, Look at Mayhem, De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas is a Latin phrase "The Mystery About The Lord Satan", Dark Funeral, Vobiscum Sathanas "May Satan Be With You", Sounds good man, Keen to hear what you do. There is some fine bands from Germany, I'm part German myself some of the town crest flags are really cool. People will only be offended if you say you're a Nazi and want to gas a race, If you wish to learn German and write in German I say go for it, Make your band unique and about your (and band mates) interests.
No need to be sorry man, Always down for a good chat.
DarkValkyrieofDeath on
yes i think the vikings in my family are connected somewhere from France, i like french culture alot, and theres a few french black metal bands i listen to that are pretty good. Also i could prolly get away with a german flag if i say its connected with my step family, who are german/japanese, ill try and check out those town flags u were talking about... id use them if i visited the area, I like to travel, but yeah the topic of flags got me thinking and talking a bunch xD
Nater90 on
Awesome, I only know Peste Noire, They kick ass! Cool sounds good, Could always ask them family members what region they're from so you can represent them! Never stop thinking and learning.
Chainsaw Charlie on
Solid work dude, nice variaty of bands... Specially DK, John 5 and helloween looks badass
Nater90 on
Thanks bro much appreciated, hell yeah, seeing John 5 next year for the first time really keen.
