Lostprophets’ singer Ian Watkins has announced the release of the Autumn/Winter 2009 clothing line by his company Made In Hell.  All of the designs are done by Ian and each item will be sold in limited quantities.

Ian discussed his designs and mission in a press release last year:

“Over the years, I’ve been approached by various people and companies about starting my own clothing line, and I’ve always said no. Do we really need another guy in a band selling crap teeshirts just to pump up his ego? It seemed a bit cliche.

But, as you may or may not know, I used to be a graphic designer and still do all the artwork for the band – album covers, single covers, merch, website, logos etc etc (Jamie helps with illustrations sometimes because he’s an awesome painter). Naturally, I’ve amassed a lot of ideas and designs that couldn’t or haven’t worked in the context of the band. I looked through them a few months back and realized it would be a shame to let them go to waste.

Each cycle will consist of four of my own designs, as well as one collaboration with another artist. I will only produce a limited number of each design. As each one sells out, the screen will be destroyed, never to be produced again. That’s it, done. Once all the designs are gone, a new set will go up. Each shirt will be made to order – there’s no stockpiled warehouse lying in wait. Every shirt will be numbered and custom made, and will come with a sticker and a badge. Every design will come from my brain via my hands through whatever medium I feel like using at that moment. It’s a way to get my ideas out and have other people be a part of it – looking fucking awesome while doing so.

The chances of seeing anyone wearing the same shirt as you are slim to none, and when people start complimenting you and asking where they can get one, you can smugly tell them they can’t. They are gone. They are shit out of luck.”
