And Lemmy died. Either way, I agree with Wampyric Rites.

i disagree. while i also do not like some bands one here. and i really hate ''buttplug'' spikes. i think this jacket is aesthetically pleasing to look at. sure it could do without the spiderweb..
studs on the front look good. some of the paintings are pretty well done,
the vertical logo argument is bullshit since he just followed the shapes and paterns of the jacket. which is quite a normal thing to do.

the back should have more studs btw.

Wouldn't call some of the bands shitty like motorhead, slayer or maiden but yea it looks like someone's jacket who just doesn't listen to heavy metal and is in the "scene" just for the fashion and looking at his profile kinda confirms my thoughts.

Mainstream bands that everyone recognizes, slayer logo under a piece sign... cos those 2 are completely relevant especially since Slayer are famous for their anti-war/violence anthems like Kill again, Chemical Warfare, Piece by Piece etc... and a shitload of spikes to look edgy....

If I saw you on the street wearing this jacket i would immediately think to myself "here is another try-hard kid who probably couldn't name a few songs of the bands on his jacket if I asked" But hey, I could be wrong... taste is subjective after all.
Anyway try not to poke yours or someone else's eye out while wearing that thing :P

Stathis on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:24

You could be right, some countries' scenes have different "codes", and I would treat it differently if it had glam band names on but it doesn't...

Someone, a while ago, posted on tss a high-end fashion site selling shirts using the Slayer logo or hand painted leather jackets with a tone of spikes and random things written on them using heavy metal bands logos.... This jacket looks exactly like that.. Something that people who have never listened to heavy metal in their lives would buy just to look fashionable and edgy..

From a quick internet search can you tell me what's the difference between Baza's jacket and this: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/481322278900130378/ ?

i like the studs and i respect your work but the choice of bands is just horrible.

Baza on Tue, 29/12/2015 - 23:48

Ofc its horrible bands if you should use it, but I like these band and it should be horrible if I put band I dont listen to, right?? :) thx!

Schonmal was von Geschmack gehört?

Into Glory Ride on Mon, 20/06/2016 - 23:05

Have to fully agree on this aswell.

SpineSplitter666 on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 19:22

I love it man!! I just don't think Wampyric Rites ever has anything good to say about anything. Keep up the great work man, it's beautiful!!

Stathis on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 22:20

+100000000

SpineSplitter666 on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 22:36

"If you never tell people their shit sucks, they'll never try to improve."
I don't see anything that sucks to be honest. This guy put in his best work and I'm going to praise it because I believe it is of value and I like some of the bands. It's eye catching, and I just dig it. I've never seen you put a positive comment on a battle jacket or anything vest wise. Criticism is essential in everyday society, but I'm gonna pull a "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" on this one. Just waiting to see what you have to say on my vest and black metal leather when I upload it since I don't like backpatches haha ;) just more negative comments I'm sure. But I see where you're coming from, I just disagree.

SpineSplitter666 on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 22:43

It's bad in your opinion sir, I just happen to like not having a backpatch. I don't think it's an issue of standards, what the fuck even are standards on a vest or jacket? Just do what you like and have fun.

Plague on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 22:52

Amen, bro! If i see a jacket i dont like, i just dont comment. Saying nothing says a lot!!

SpineSplitter666 on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:00

"I'm just not patting everyone on the back for their bad or mediocre jackets."
Fucking hell, again with calling all the jackets bad, haha. It's based on opinion. I don't like metalcore (mallcore) or deathcore but I'm not running into the local mall throwing Carnifex and Whitechapel CDs at the 14 year olds with hockey puck size gauges and Tank tops small enough for their cats while I'm screaming "core is for faggots!!! Hue hue hue" I just keep my fucking mouth shut, because they're gonna do what they're gonna do anyway. Your 1 flame and "your battle jacket sucks" isn't changing shit. It's a friendly community here, and if I don't like something, I just scroll on

SpineSplitter666 on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:19

I feel it. I just disagree with just about everything you say haha. But I'll say nothing bad to you in the sense of bashing your items. Two different kinds of people apparently.

SpineSplitter666 on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:21

And "Your analogy is bad"
Fuck off, everything I say is going to be denounced by you in the first place haha but either way, your opinion is yours and that's what matters I suppose. That's what I've been preaching all along.

SpineSplitter666 on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:34

We'll agree to disagree

Plague on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:38

There's also a cool way to express negative opinions. No need to bash someone's work. U coulda just said it better.

Demolition_hell... on Tue, 29/12/2015 - 00:53

PForx on Tue, 29/12/2015 - 02:45

This, this, absolutely this. I see people all the time who give absolutely horrible vests 5 flames because they like ONE band on it. Or people who comment "nice taste bro" on every single vest, which means they don't even have a taste, they just swallow everything they're fed.

Plague on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 19:22

Haters gonna hate ^^ Its YOUR jacket. Looks brutal and very creative!!! No one's here to win a contest, we're all just sharing our love of metal! \m/

Snerk666 on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 21:01

Looks great!

Lizard on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 22:17

Well, it looks fashionable, but in a nice way. When fashion design and love for metal are combined. :D

Lizard on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 22:55

If you prefer running around like a mix of a biker and Mad Max, it's your thing (since your vest is rather tasteful simple). But honestly I see no fucking reason why you shouldn't mix sense of fashion design and metal when you like both. And after seeing countless guys who try to look hard and grim while looking like escaped from the trash can it's nice to see such an exception.

I have to admit that I can enjoy results of designing and tailoring clothes since I know what kind of work it is. And yeah, I agree with most of the stuff you said about the most vests, but still I can enjoy something fancy.

Lizard on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:08

Honestly that's a fine exemaple what I'd call way over the top at least for my taste since it rather reminds me of a hedgehog, but yeah it's well crafted and done with love, so it's fine to me.

And both, the jacket in your link and Baza's jacket are looking pretty fashionable to me the very same way (I guess that's the part where I finally give you headaches but shit happens) and are done on a high level of craftsmanship. Calm down and avoid Baza's stuff or wait for the final result.

Lizard on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:41

Exactly, it suits him. Without wanting to bash Baza but for me he's no one who would look good with a really grim and radical style and vest (maybe I'm wrong as hell I don't know). So yeah the jacket fits perfectly, but in my opionion that's the deal of a vest or jacket: It should be as most personal and bounded to the owner as possible!

It's ok if it gives you cancerr by just looking at it but there're simply different ways to say you dislike it to the guts.

Well, that's something nobody can't deny: Baza's stuff is always causing turmoils. XD

llama_operation on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 22:20

Some odd bands to throw together, but it looks decent enough. Good painting btw

Baza on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:57

Why not, I like em´

THMManiac on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:37

Cool looking spikes, but I think the comments on this post are a little more fun to look at.

Demolition_hell... on Tue, 29/12/2015 - 01:01

+1 hahahaha

Baza on Mon, 28/12/2015 - 23:56

Hahah, every f*cking time I upload my stuff the comments goes crazy and start big discussion, haha.
And "weird mix of band blabla", uhm... I listen to all these bands.. Why should I not support them?

And thank you to you guys that like and support my stuff!

kimo on Tue, 29/12/2015 - 08:03

Maybe next time you should ask the cool kids which bands you are allowed to put on your jacket, and maybe stay more in touch with which bands are in fashion at the moment.

Personally I like it, it's original and not just the same ol same ol, that you usually see.

Baza on Tue, 29/12/2015 - 15:28

Hahaha yeah maybe ;)
Thanks dude!

Odiumediae on Tue, 29/12/2015 - 00:23

I don't have much to say about this, since it's also not exactly my type of style. But I just have to send you some flames for keeping your cool and to spite Wampyric Rites' inconsistent ,arguments’ about taste. De gustibus non est disputandum.

Looks good, only thing I don't like is the through the never art. I would've chosen something else from Metallica since they have way better art than the stuff they did the last 2 decades. Which is just my opinion.
