Hardcore Punk: Social Distortion

The iconic grey X Face Zip Up Hoodie memorializes a band that has withstood the test of time. Social Distortion has been around since 1978 and even disbanded in 1985. Luckily for hardcore punk fans, the band got back together in 1986 and has been producing albums marked by their distinctive and melodic rockabilly sound. This grey, zip up hoodie features the band's name, Social Distortion, written in metallic silver across the front. The logo of a skeleton holding a cigarette is sandwiched between the two words in the band's name. Of course the lettering and imagery is just as twisted as the band's collective persona as societal misfits. Would you expect a punk band to be represented in any other way?

Hard Rock: Disturbed

For something with a little more color, fans of the band Disturbed might like the classic Blue Fade Zip Up Hoodie. This metal hoodie features the gothic imagery of fire-eyed monster breaking free of its chains and a castle on the back. This is a metal hoodie that tells a dark story in addition to keeping one warm. This band came together in 1996 and has been producing hard rock albums ever since. While their sound may be hard to pin down, this band likes to focus on quality and artistry rather than keeping up with trends.

Heavy Metal: Biohazard

The Rockers Pullover Hoodie pays tribute to the band, Biohazard. With an all black background this pullover metal hoodie features a bright orange emblem on the front and the band's name on the back in a way that exudes a certain post-apocalyptic feel. This band has been striking its own chord since getting together in 1987. These pioneers were one of the first bands credited with fusing elements from hardcore punk, heavy metal and hip-hop. While going through many label changes and differences of opinion, Biohazard has produced its most recent album in 2012. Biohazard also began a tour in January 2012. This hoodie is a perfect way to show support for this band when it comes to town. Of course, wearing it the day after the concert will show off a thriving social life.

From the long-standing bands to the fledgling groups, a metal hoodie allows you to be a part of music history. Whether someone is a traditionalist wearing logos from classic metal bands or a cutting edge music enthusiast that supports a group from its humble beginnings, a sweatshirt is the only way to showcase band loyalty.
