Austin/Backpage Shirt Bundle

February 27, 2010 By Doug Van Pelt

Here’s a combo/bundle of the first shirt we’ve ever offered from one of our “Back Page” designs from the magazine* and the first shirt we’ve ever had that really capitalized on the fact that we’re based in a totally cool city (Austin, TX). *This one was on the back of the Mar/Apr 2007 issue #124. $14

Quantity:

Let’s be honest: I haven’t figured out a way to conveniently code this bundle to allow getting two different sizes of the shirts. It’s set up to get the same size in both shirts. If this is a huge issue for you, please complain to me and I’ll act if I hear enough complaints (editor@hmmag.com).

Evolution Beyond Dissonance

Two years since the release of Hands Like Houses' latest album, 'Anon,' the band should be on the road supporting the release. Instead, the band has leveraged their local presence, government help, and new platforms like Patreon to stay afloat in the COVID-age.

Becoming Comrades

The trio of Comrades – husband and wife Joe and Laura McElroy alongside drummer John Gaskil – is used to living in a van and touring the country. Now, their new normal has provided them with a moment to "be adults" for once. We recently sat down with the McElroys to talk more about the spiritual reality within life, how soon they'll be able to release new music, and how koalas are their new normal.

Between the White Noise

My Epic's last full-length album came out in 2013; despite a number of EPs along the way, the band's dedication to their craft, lyrical approach, and unyielding approach to let the music come naturally has made them critical darlings. Now, they're learning to interact and feed a rabid fanbase in between albums and in a new normal.

HM Magazine Turns 35

In 1985, Doug Van Pelt photocopied a letter-sized sheets of paper, bound them together, and handed them out in person on the campus of the University of Texas at Austin. It's all digital now, but, along the way, Van Pelt stirred up quite a few waves, played some seriously heavy music, and made a few friends along the way. Here: A quick look back at the magazine's 35-year history with Van Pelt and new owner, David Stagg.
