CIRCUS OF THE DEATH - GAME ON

This T-shirt design, crafted for the renowned brand THE KOOPLES, boldly draws inspiration from the iconic IRON MAIDEN "The first ten years..." tee. However, it has been reimagined by me in a punk-rock style reminiscent of the Seattle music scene, peppered with subtle nods. Notably, the two dates, 1967 and 1994, hold significance as the birth and passing of the legendary KURT COBAIN.

The tee's name, "CIRCUS OF THE DEATH - GAME ON" pays homage to the infamous "Club of 27." This legend suggests that several immense stars tragically passed away at the age of 27. Hence, the number 27 is adorned on the small skulls, serving as a poignant reminder.

The design captures the rebellious spirit of the punk-rock era, blending the iconic with the personal, creating a unique fusion of musical and cultural influences. "CIRCUS OF THE DEATH - GAME ON" is not just a T-shirt; it's a wearable piece of art that encapsulates the spirit of a musical era and pays tribute to the enduring legacy of those who left us too soon.
