Hey guys! Is it possible someone can help me out with this? I was wondering what the typeface spelling out "DAY OF THE DEAD" on this shirt. Any help would be appreciated! thanks!

The font is Flare Gothic Bold

Thanks!

Flare Gothic is a "nickname" for Flange AFAIK. (Not an illegal one though, URW had the rights to sell certain fonts but not under their original name.)

Flange (or Flare Gothic) is only similar: see the middle ‘E’ and ‘F’ bar, the top of the ‘T’ … Also, the flare serifs in the sample seem to be angled/abrupt.
