Xavleg - Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia Long-Sleeve

Xavleg - Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia Long Sleeve

Official long sleeve for the new EP from South Africa's most unhinged extreme metal export.

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia drops November 30th, 2025, five tracks of linguistic brutality that weaponize the fear of long words into a mouth-melting monolith of vocabulary violence. This long sleeve is built for colder shows, layered looks, and repping meme-grind year-round.

Built on the Gildan 2400, thicker vintage-feel cotton (6.0 oz/yd²) with tubular knit construction for a cleaner drape and no side seams. The heavier weight gives the prints depth and presence. Ribbed collar and shoulder tape keep the shape intact through wear. Fits slightly small, so consider sizing up if you want a roomier fit or plan to layer underneath.

This is the longest band name in extreme metal meets the most absurdly titled EP of the year. Sleeve graphics stretch the full design across your arms, maximum coverage for maximum impact.

Out November 30th, 2025.
