More merch or no more merch?

Category: 100% Nasum
Posted: Thursday, 10 August 2006 13:22

Although I have said as replies to questions here and in emails that I won't print any more merch, I have come to question that decision. Perhaps I should do another round of shirts.

The biggest reason why I decided not to do more merch has been that I am very tired of having half my home as some sort of merch warehouse with boxes and boxes of t-shirts and hoods (they are the worst space consumers there is!). I am - or should I say I was - very tired of spending so much of my time packing things and going to the post office and all that stuff.

Also, it sort of felt like I was "milking" Nasum by continuing doing merch for such a long time. I mean - the band disbanded over 18 months ago.

Never the less, I can't ignore the vibe I get from people. You want more t-shirts, that's pretty obvious. So I am leaning towards doing some more, perhaps even a new design. I am sort of into the idea of doing a "Grind Finale" type of t-shirt in time for the 4LP release (which should be soonish), and if I'll do that - well, I should do something else.

Consider this a survey of some sort. Let me know in the comments which prints you like and I'll base the order on that. Not that any print made before the "Grind" design is not available and I am very reluctant towards hoods!

The Napalm death Rip off was great. But no white shirts please. Think it was grey or so?

I would like to have one of the plain logo-shirts if they'll become available again.

Jag skulle gilla något som du antagligen skulle hata: En Necrony-hoodie.

Den klassiska Hooden med bara loggan på vore fint att ha!

jag vill jättegärna ha någon till Nasum-tröja. Speciellt Helvete-designen, då min tröja är vääldigt sliten och trasig. Kommer den eller? annars köper jag nog en annan ändå.

Nice that you like the idea of printing on non hooded sweatshirts, anders!;)

Fortsätt tillhandahålla skjortor så länge det finns en efterfrågan.
Det är inte du som mjölkar Nasum, det är vi. Och vi trivs med det, och vill fortsätta.
Att sälja Nasum-produkter är inte att ta från bandet, utan att ge åt oss.

I love "ND design" but with the white shirt (although I've got the grey one)

So... sure I'd buy the white one!

I would really like to get a couple shirts in XXL. Specifically the "Grind" and "Shift" designs.

Vanliga luvtröjor utan dragkedja, med loggan på. Samt vanliga luvtröjor med Swedish grindcore-motivet. Det vore fräsigt.

What about some colorfull shirt designs like yellow, red, orange or something? Would be great :) Perhaps even with the SWEDISH GRINDCORE design...

Personligen skulle jag kunna tänka mig att köpa i alla fall en "Gasmask"-tshirt, en "Grind finale"-tshirt och möjligen en hoodie (Red N!) också, förmodligen ännu fler än så. Ni har ju tryckt gott om skitsnygga tröjor!
Sedan tycker jag inte att du ska behöva känna att du "mjölkar" Nasums namn för pengar eller så. Så länge vi (fans) vill ha/behöver merchandise finns det ju uppenbarligen en efterfrågan. Det är ju inte direkt så att du säljer era snygga designs till H&M eller så.

Hola Anders!
I understand you are tired with merchandise, you have new band etc... but it will be a good idea (I think) to reprint t-shirts an make some new desings in future. Not a tons of t-shirts or limited t-shirts Something more into a way to remember Nasum.

I loved the "bugs" design but failed to acquire one of those. But I assume that a reprint isn't gonna happen, but something in the vein of that would be perfect (especially on a "non hooded zip up";).

I would love to have a non hooded zip up! Nice ide Josh!
Anders
Friday, 11 August 2006 15:36
JOsh - that's actually quite a good idea. I haven't made any of that sort in the past...
Friday, 11 August 2006 15:17
hey anders,
what about printing on unhooded sweaters?
i would be very thankful for a pullover without any hood.

Gör gärna en tisha med ett mindre mer "stilrent" tryck, inget kul med det stora trycken tycker jag.!
Thursday, 10 August 2006 21:33
Du nästan lovade ju hoods av den större storleken på "Bullret";)
Annars är jag intresserad av Gasmask-motivet. En till logo-tröja skulle sitta fint.
Sen skulle jag tycka att det vore häftigt om det skulle finnas en t-shirt med N:et med "Shift-recycle-symbolen" runt då jag precis påbörjat den tatueringen!:)
Tycker iaf att det skulle vara väldans gött med nya tröjor!

alex - Maybe, it's one of the most made t-shirts in the Nasum catalogue though...

lawan! - well, see previous comment regarding "monster".

Bazzi - jag fattar grejen. Relapses "Grind Finale" tröjor är inte "Grind Finale" nog! Desutom kommer Unrest att göra någon eller några egna tröjor som kommer att vara mer "Grind Finale".

Nä jag tycker inte att det ska göras nya tröjor. Relapse säljer ju Grind Finale-motiv på både ziphoods och tshirts. Jag skulle tycka det var bättre om den officiella Nasum-merchen dog ut, så att det känns roligt att ha en riktig officiell Nasum-tröja om 10 år. Typ :p
Du fattar.

yeah, MONSTER and cog design cool. but maybe the new design for release grind finale 4xlp will be something great! nasum gone but not forgotten! hail nasum!

Hi Anders,

I am still waiting for a reprint of the "nasum - swedish grindcore" shirt. There was a cool one in olive/brown. Any plans regarding this one?
Would be great!!

cheers from Berlin

The "monster" design is also out of the question. It didn't turn out good.
Thursday, 10 August 2006 15:54
Great to hear you will do another run of shirts. I think the Cog or Monster design would be really good. and a Grind Finale shirt would be awesome.
