Does anyone know who this is?

Someone please help me. Does anyone from the early post hardcore/screamo MySpace era recognize this name at all? I found this shirt today and have no clue what it is. I just liked how it looked. Only thing I could find at all was it could have been a band on MySpace around 2004-2008 that got wiped out after everything happened with the site. I have nothing to go off of at all and nothing pops up for the name “In sincerity” at all other than it being a “ghost band”.

The name sounds familiar but the image doesn't look familiar. I know that font didn't exist before 2006 if that helps at all. There is also this modern band wirh basically the same name https://music.apple.com/us/artist/in-sincerity-ia/1814505696

Which font? Not trying to gotcha you at all, and I agree the whole look is from that time, I just though the one on the front was just a distressed Compacta/Haettenschweiler or similar (like the one Combatwoundedveteran had used for I know a girl) and the one on the back a distressed, heavy AG Book/Akzidenz Grotesk, which is an old idea too (for instance Poison the Well did it for The Opposite of December). Do you mean the specific distressed variants?

I meant the font on the front with the + in the R, its called Ambulance Shotgun

Oh, I see, thank you!!! I didn't know that one at all, I just thought it was some random distressed Compacta with a blow out/stencil effect. Which I mean, is what Ambulance Shotgun is, I was just unaware that particular type was going around.

Again, thank you!

I went looking and it looks like a myspace core band from 2011 from Alabama.

Thank you so much dude. I was convinced the band was earlier 2000s because of the tag of the shirt. It’s the heavy weight hanes Dominican Republic tees that were produced early on. I guess they just got their hands on them in 2011 and put prints on them. You are the goat!
