Pennsylvania rock band Grayscale released new merch on their website today, and it went fast.

The Philly-based five-piece has been teasing the “sample drop” on their Instagram account since Saturday with photos of assorted Grayscale apparel and accessories. This drop included over 150 unique items, with only one or two of each design available.

Every merch item we make goes through a sampling process to ensure quality and accuracy. Since we started doing our thing about 3 years ago, we’ve grown a collection of the “samples” from each and every item we’ve ever created, and carefully cataloged them. On Tuesday July 28th we are going to drop them. This is our biggest drop to date – over 150+ unique items from all sizes (mostly medium and large) will be available for purchase. Please keep in mind there is only 1 or 2 of each item, so they will be gone almost instantly. In addition to our rarest pieces, there will be some never before seen items that we never dropped and some color variants we never released. Sample Drop – July 28th at 12pm EST at the link in our bio.

The items became available for purchase earlier today at 12pm EST, and heavy site traffic caused technical difficulties for many users.

This unique approach to merchandise is a way that Grayscale regularly set themselves apart from the crowd. In a 2019 interview with Forbes, frontman Collin Walsh said the band wanted to develop “really cool merch that wouldn’t fall apart when you washed it.”

The band’s emphasis on quality and passion for fashion were evident in the elaborate, varied selection of items that fans were dying to get their hands on today.

In addition to dropping new merch, Grayscale have kept their fanbase engaged during this musical dry spell with the release of their EP Live From the Barber Shop Studios. This three-track release comes out tomorrow, and it will feature remastered songs from Grayscale’s most recent album, Nella Vita. Listen to the reimagined version of “Baby Blue” below:
