Let me know what you guys think. Shirts would most likely be a dark grey. Still working on the way we're going to do the band's name. We're a metal/hardcore band.

Personally, I'd put the band name on the back, across the shoulders. It's a cool design; there is no need to try and cram something else on the front. |

| | | | One Bad Monkey has a good idea - Name on the back - the design is pretty cool artwork |

+1 for Name across the shoulders, maybe in this font Colleged Font | dafont.com |

| | | | The length of the name could make a difference whether or not it would fit nicely somewhere on the front.
Many bands use names that are long, and this (along with marquees and the like) is where it could prove to be troublesome.

If it's messy we'll go with a larger one possibly on the back as suggested. If it's easy to read when it's small then between the snake heads sounds like a good spot.

If nto that, I agree with putting the name on the back.

I'm feeling a tone on tone vibe from it. |

Just to throw out an idea, consider using these snakes as the centerpiece of a fake liquor label design. Add FOUL SPIRITS in big letters somewhere, and smaller text that says something like "110% alcohol by volume, traditionally fermented and distilled from 100% organic Ohio snake venom" or whatever would fit your sound, then some lines as a border around it.
