You read that right: more than two years after launching the first line of MetalSucks merch, we are retiring these designs forever before doin’ up some awesome new ones in 2012. That means if you’ve ever wanted a Sergeant D. t-shirt, or a Completely Unreadable hoodie, or one of those awesome skull shirts by Rodney Githens from Vertebrae 33 and Metal Band Art, well… this is your last chance to dance!

The happy news is that we’re now discounting ALL of this fine merch, so you can grab these items before they’re gone at a discount. T-shirts, which used to range from $13 – $15, are now just $10; hoodies, which used to cost $30, are now just $20. (Shipping + handling not included.) Not bad, right?

Go here to browse and place your order. They make wonderful holiday presents, bar mitzvah gifts, and proposal offerings in lieu of a diamond ring. But be forewarned: if there’s something you want, you’d better act fast, ’cause once this batch of merch is gone, these designs are done for all time!!! This special deal ends at midnight on December 25th.

There are still a few of our brand spankin’ new “Appetite for Deconstruction” shirts left. If you still need a gift for your hesher friend don’t be shy and order now ’cause these are only on a limited pressing and they’ll all be gone very soon; and they’re only $14 for chrissakes!

Those are our own ugly mugs immortalized in GN’R form, in case you couldn’t tell; Axl Rosenberg (center), Vince Neilstein (bottom), Kip Wingerschmidt (top), Anso DF (left), Sammy O’Hagar (right), and Gary Suarez (in between Axl and Vince). Next time we do a shirt it’ll be a giant repro of Sergeant D’s pretty mug with a giant bullseye laid on top of it so you can fling poo, piss, arrows, bullets or your weapon of choice directly at your friend’s torso instead of facelessly trolling the Interhole.

Order now! Be that cool guy.

Last week we offered a War From A Harlots Mouth prize package to the winner of our weekly Photo Caption Contest. That winner is one Dingas McCloud, and here’s his caption to the photo at right:

“Santa doesn’t leave any presents under the bigotree.”

This week we’re giving away a MetalSucks hoodie! They’re very comfy, will keep you warm through the winter, and you’ll look great to boot. They’re also available for purchase here (along with several t-shirt designs) if you’re so inclined. This week’s photo comes from MS reader Tom Braund; the chap in the picture may or may not be Tom himself, since he didn’t happen to say. The rules as per usual: just come up with the funniest caption to the below photo, and remember to use a real email address (or post it with your comment if you’re using FB Connect)!

Nothing says “I love you” like lining our coffers with money for weed buying a sweet new “Appetite for Deconstruction” MetalSucks t-shirt for your loved one this holiday season. Or just for yourself — because hopefully you love yourself too; really, you’re special, just like mommy always told you, so go on and buy yourself a present.

The bad boys pictured on this shirt in classic GN’R style are Axl Rosenberg (center), Vince Neilstein (bottom), Kip Wingerschmidt (top), Anso DF (left), Sammy O’Hagar (right), and Gary Suarez (in between Axl and Vince). We’re a bit bummed that we could only fit the senior-most MS staffers on this shirt, but maybe next time we’ll go all Arcade Fire on your asses and include Sergeant D playing a hurdy gurdy. And before you all get in a tizzy trying to guess who the model pictured above is, we really don’t know; we found the dude curled up in a dark corner of the Mansion early this morning right outside Kip’s room and he agreed to model our new shirt in exchange for a McGriddles.

These shirts are part of a limited edition run of only 84 prints, so be sure to order yours now; they’re almost all gone.

Or you could just get your loved one this.

MS reader Viking_xxx sent in photos of himself wearing our super-sweet “Jew Skull” MetalSucks t-shirt on stage with his band during their last performance ever. Mr. Viking_xxx didn’t want us to plug the band nor did he tell us their name — as what good would a plug for a broken-up band do? — but judging by their choice of stage apparel they can’t be half-bad.

For his excellent wardrobe choice Viking_xxx will receive a package of metal goodies in the mail. You can get the same by sending in pictures of yourself wearing your MetalSucks gear. What’s that, you don’t have any yet? Better fix that right quick. Check out the photos that other Suckalos have already sent in, including a trip to India, the Hollywood hills, and the snowy shores of Chicago.

Longtime MS devotee Discipleofthewatch and her boyfriend recently took a cruise up Mulholland Drive in the Southern California hills to look at an old military base and lookout point used in the 1950′s during the cold war. Since she was sporting her sweet MS attire that day — not one but two MS t-shirts AND a hoodie — she snapped a few photos and sent them in. For her troubles Discipleofthewatch gets a box packed with new music and various other goodies we have lying around the Mansion. “Show us your MetalSucks” and you’ll also get a sweet MS care package. MS Maniacs David M. and Ashley already did. What’s that? You don’t have a MetalSucks shirt or hoodie yet? Well then buy one pronto!

With regards to the above photo, she has this to say: “[this] is what I have to say to Biff Tannen and Ziltoid, specifically.” Zing!

Props to MS reader Ashley for sending in these epic photos of herself in her brand new MetalSucks hoodie. Good thing she wore her hoodie on this wintry Chicago day, because Ashley is obviously “far too metal for real pants” (her words). For literally freezing her ass off in the name of metal, Ashley gets a care package in the mail full of various metal goodies.

Big ups for inclusion of the Uno card. A+++++++++. Well done, Ash!
