Your favorite Band Logos

Vectrex

So tell me what are you favorite kind of logos? Theres so many different styles.

I really love straight lines with pikes. For example:

If i would make a band, i would totally make a logo in that style for it.

Overkill's Neon green logo.Possessed w/inverted cross, Municipal waste, Mortuary Drape, Sarcofago, Cloven Hoof, Cauldron, and 55 gore even though they suck major cock

Nater90's picture

Depends on the genre I guess...

Black Metal & Death Metal are my favourites, Bands that incorporate a logo or image is great too.

Daniel Sodomaniac's picture

Saxon, Accept, Manowar and the one Priest started to use on Stained Class pure Metal :)!

Der Todesking's picture

Sadistik Exekution, Sarcofago, Autopsy, Unleashed, Voivod, Possessed, Crematory (swe), Nocturnus, Morbid Angel, (old) Death.....

grime81's picture

definitely voivod

Formshifter's picture

and Vektor!

Vectrex's picture

I will agree with Katharsis, Sadistic Exekkution but also Wrathprayer. In general stuff that looks very thorny

Into Glory Ride's picture

Intersting, that's an observation i made aswell!

Der Todesking's picture

Yeah Katharsis' logo is killer!

DraconianStark666's picture

Any logo with the Bathory font looks dope as shit.

Hoth's logo is nice because it looks like Darth Vader's TIE fighter. I love the attention to detail there.

Vectrex's picture

I think the Bathory font worked for Bathory but if i see any other band with that kind of font i think it looks very boring. It's like one of these fonts that defined a band. If you could do a metal logo why would you just use a simple font with nothing else?

deadlock's picture

These days the font is so played out I find myself preferring Bathory's requiem era logo to the original, just because at least its some variation.

judascrust's picture

mayhem & morbid angel are probably my 2 favorite band logos.
+1 to anyone who said beherit - I always liked the goat horns & candle in addition to the pentagram & upsidedown cross.
nunslaughter had a few really cool ones as well (the one seen on the latest re-issue of "goat" with the red cover is my favorite of theirs)
aside from those, I always liked the old english/gothic style font, that style of lettering almost always works for black/death metal

NocturnalOccultist's picture

Nifelheim, Slaughter, Dismember, Darkthrone, Discharge

headbangingmadness's picture

Absu probably

sandmanforce's picture

Slayer, Kreator, Sodom, King Diamond,

atrophythrasher's picture

Amon Amarth, Death,Exodus,Iron Maiden, Nuclear Assault,Rammstein and Venom

Der Todesking's picture

Darkthrone's logo, how could I forget this one!? Nunslaughter have a few cool ones too. Also the old logos from Nicke Andersson f.ex. Nihilist, Dismember, Crematory etc that defined the style of the swedish underground are pretty cool imo.

Formshifter's picture

Death is obviously in a league of their own, Venoms is awesome and I love the Mervin manufacturing (libtech, gnu, roxy) sticker on my snowboard thats rips off Venom. My favourite logo is probably Heaven Shall Burn. Its relatively simple (relative to other logos in that style) in that you can read it even if you dont know what it is beforehand but for someone like my dad it takes him a minute to "translate" it.

MasterDeath's picture

A lot of great ones are already mentioned above.
Death (old), Sepultura (old), Morbid, Incantation, Immortal (old), Sadistic Intent, Abruptum, Demilich, Emperor, Nifelheim, ASPHYX...
There are still a lot of them to mention!

Der Todesking's picture

Nifelheim's logo is great & fits incredibly good to their style & attitude!

MasterDeath's picture

Absolutely!

vikingdantheman's picture

Some of my faves not mentioned yet would be-
Bal Sagoth, Impaled Nazarene, Manegarm, Seance..... theres too many great logos.

Nater90's picture

Bal Sagoths is amazing!

I need a patch of theirs...Great band.

vikingdantheman's picture

not many patches to chose from sadly.

Nater90's picture

Sadly yes...

I do love this shirt design, Simple but epic.

imfan1975's picture

Black flag has a basic, yet badass logo

Into Glory Ride's picture

I love the Nocternity Logo (and Sigil) for example: http://www.metal-archives.com/images/1/0/0/9/10090_logo.jpg?3459
Generally most logos that appeal to me are in a way "filigree" or ornate (hope these are the rigjt words) or have an image integrated into them, like
Dark Fortress: http://www.metal-archives.com/images/5/3/8/8/5388_logo.gif
Trollskogen: http://www.metal-archives.com/images/1/0/9/4/10946_logo.jpg

I also really dig Logos with Faces at the sides, like:
Hooded Menace: https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/759992447/HoodedMenacemasterlogo.jpg (one of the Best logos of all time)
Benediction: http://www.metal4all.de/var/storage/images/bands/benediction/4271-1-ger-...
Paria: http://www.empyre-mag.de/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Paria_Logo.jpg
Nuclear Magick: http://sturmglanz.de/band_photos/nm_logo.jpg

Generally i am a friend of symmetry, balance and order. With exceptions like the Antediluvian Logo which is one of my alltime favourites aswell.

Another Killer Logo is the one of Faustcoven: http://www.metal-archives.com/images/1/3/3/6/1336_logo.gif

Nihilistic-Terrorfront's picture

The Dark Fortress logo was always eyecandy for me ^^

Doktor Kananga's picture

Unleashed

Bayernpirat's picture

UNLEASHED - no more words necessary to say

gizter's picture

defintly Sodom.

Carovoivod's picture

All those logos you been talking abot are great indeed, but how about the astral sleep TIAMAT logo? That one is one of the best logos in metal history

Into Glory Ride's picture

Beautiful indeed!

Der Todesking's picture

Yeah agreed, old Tiamat, & also the later/last Treblinka logo was cool!

Nater90's picture

+1

Amazing album and logo.

Militant's picture

Darkthrone, Cattle Decapitation, Devourment, Incantation, old Cephalic Carnage, Pig Destroyer, Rotten Sound

I also really like the plain font logos of Dying Fetus and Brutal Truth.

VoodooChild's picture

I like the kind of logos used in alot of brutal death or slam, where you have to read 15 times before you know what it says.

Into Glory Ride's picture

Dakhma looks great.

Into Glory Ride's picture

I also really like the Zemial Logo: http://www.metal-archives.com/images/9/3/4/934_logo.gif

Into Glory Ride's picture

And of course i don't want to forget (i think already mentioned here, but nevertheless:) ABSU! http://www.metal-archives.com/images/4/1/41_logo.jpg?3007

And i absolutely worship the Logo (and all the rest) of Macabre Omen: http://www.metal-archives.com/images/5/5/3/8/5538_logo.jpg?5017

PErhaps this once will be on one of my jackets.

Nater90's picture

deathdeathdeath's picture

Morbid Angel and the true Mayhem are my fave logos

kresctilon's picture

Marduk's logo is seriously cool.

Der Todesking's picture

Did anyone mention Possession yet..? Also Sarcofago (the 3 cross version), Morbid Angel & Possessed ofc!

Influx's picture

I like Moonspell's two logos, their old pentagram and the current moon one, The Septicflesh one always stood out to me, its neat and clean as well as the font for Cradle of Filth

I saw someone above mention Tiamat and I concur!

pan_in_ithyphallic_mirth's picture

Yes Tiamat, one of the first metal logos I ever saw

miggy_666's picture

Unleashed obviously. The old Nokturnal Mortum logo, old Enslaved logo, Winterfylleth, Summoning's pentagram logo, and Obituary's logo with the gargoyle or dragon wrapped around the T in the middle.

MetalBrewer's picture

I'll be biased and go with UFO.
I'd like to see it with the design of the 'steel' colouring like on ADX, Agent Steel, etc...

quixotic's picture

The UFO logo (the one since Obsession) is really cool indeed!

Corvus Corax's picture

Most of the ones I like have already been named. That being said; I've always liked Leviathan's crescent moon.

Kvlt_ured_Gentleman's picture

I've always liked Graveland's logo, Dark Fortress's logo as far as black metal goes, Revenge has a pretty cool logo as well, Sect Pig's looks pretty sick and goes with their almost industrial sound. For older metal, you can't beat the style of stylized letters like in the Iron Maiden and Dokken logos because I hate logos that try to be symmetrical unless they're extremely intricate, for instance Xasthur's logo I like but Death Angel's can fuck itself.

VMBRAL SPECTRE's picture

I always liked the venom logo, the twist on a celtic design I think.

I love the thorny Mayhem logo also with the bat wings and iron crosses/inverted crosses.

Bauhaus geometric face (my profile pic) as well I love. I guess this isn't metal though. ha ha.

Caarkazs's picture

S.P.A's logo. It's two 3d stars, but they slip in S.P.A within them.
