Autechre, unlike Stereolab, etc, have obviously never been much of a merchandise band.. and for a good reason. They are so involved in the sound that I suppose they don't want any type of associative icons related to their music or something philosophical like that.. but you gotta admit it would rock to wear around a tri-rep-brown Autechre t-shirt, right? Now I seem to vaguely remember reading that at one time in the past they produced ONE type of tri-rep promo t-shirt. Is this true, considering the vagueness of the rumour and the unorthodox nature of it? It doesn't seem like Sean and Rob's style..since they couldn';t care any less about promotion or record sales.. but who knows.. Just wondering if anyone here could shed some light on the issue..
