BLOODBATH: "PULL THE PORK" TRIBUTE TO DEATH COMPLETE WITH DEATH FONT








In a "satire" tribute to Florida extreme/death metal pioneers DEATH, Swedish death metal supergroup BLOODBATH have changed the bands font for a "PULL THE PORK" tribute to Chuck Schuldiner and co.,complete with T-shirts, approved (with a giggle) by the all in the DEATH camp.




FROM BLOODBATH:
It should come as no surprise that Chuck Schuldiner’s old band Death has been one Bloodbath’s main influences. As a matter of fact, ‘Pull The Plug’ off the ‘Leprosy’ (1988) album is one of our all-time fave Death songs. Coincidentally, it also happens that one of our fave meals is something better known as “Pulled Pork” (when you think about it, that does sound pretty brutal in its literal context, right?), so we thought, why not twist the two together in the name of one of the seven deadly sins! DONE! This satire shirt is our tribute to Death’s legacy while giving glory to pork! *Gluttony will take control and bring you to your death, No chance of a normal life to live just like the rest, Gluttony will spread with time, your body soon to change, Appearance becomes hideous a sight too much to take.*

Pre-order now and get yours shipped July 29th!

It's been fun reading all the hilarious comments on the Pull The Pork tribute shirt (and you keep 'em coming!). Obviously some got the point, but apparently some just never will, but reading the words from this guy while considering what he got ink'd maybe will help the confused on the way to historic death metal knowledge. KILLER tattoo! Cheers to Sean and hail Death!

"I just wanna say that I'm one of Death's most rabid fans and that shirt is fucking awesome. It's cool that you guys are A.) an awesome Death Metal Band, B.) An awesome Death Metal band that pays homage to Death. Thank you."
Sean Mason


FROM DEATH (CHRIS STEELE): 
Say, I smell bacon. Does anyone smell bacon? Yes, I definitely smell a pork product of some type. hahahaha.
This is just a funny shirt that I know Chuck would get a kick out of. Quit taking shit so seriously!
And this is Chuck's nephew replying to you by the way.
