Rock band My Bloody Valentine works in collaboration with streetwear giant Supreme on a collection of goods for the Spring 2020 season. The duo unveil seven graphic tees last week to capture the influence of the rock band, which started off as the pioneering times of 'shoegazing' music sub-genres.
Essentially, it is a dreamy dissonant sound that was made popular in the UK during the late 80s. Supreme talks about the band, "My Bloody Valentine has influenced generations of musicians and audiences. The band forged new possibilities in how to make noise music, as well as how to listen to and experience it." The collection features original album artwork on the Trucker jacket, Rayon shirt, tees, hoodies, and more.
