This T-shirt features the cover art from The Smiths' 1987 compilation album, The World Won't Listen. The graphic on the shirt shows a photograph of a group of people, which was designed by Morrissey and uses a photo by Jürgen Vollmer. The album title was chosen by the band as a reaction to what they felt was the music industry's ignorance of their work. The T-shirt is a popular item of merchandise for fans of the British indie rock band and its iconic sound.
