Hahahahah, I'm usually thinking "What the HELL does that say?" when I'm looking at Metal band logos

.
Some of those are just ridiculous though

Originally, I didn't think that they had words in, I thought they where just random squiggles there to look cool

trishvicious.buzznet.com/user/journal/1901891/

I found a similar list there ^^

Some of these that I listen to (and some others that I just found XD) are pretty bad too:

Engravor, Flactorophia, Demonic Dismemberment, Eternal Myster, Vomitous Discharge

Bleeding Aura (I think XD)

Choking on Bile, Demented Torment, Crepitation, Embludgeoned, CRime Syndikhate (the only legible one XD) and Projectile Disembowelment

If anyone can figure out this one, they deserve a prize! I can't remember who it was! XD They're from Ukraine, though ^^

Vedmak

Goremageddon Records

Choking on Bile

Nyctophobic

Phlegm Thrower

XD Grindcore bands are the best for silly logos! I would have posted Crepitation (since I love them XD Pig music!) but Requiem beat me to it! XD It's one of my all time favourite difficult logos XD

cool thread this is. I sometimes see these guys on the street with tshirts with such logos on. Everytime I think "unk what the fuck, what band is that?"
Or you're watching a concert at a festival but don't know what band it is because you don't know what's written on the veil/curtain (whatever you call it in English) at the end of the stage.

unbelievable how they come up with the logos

I have no idea although it looks like the first word is Veil and the second word begins with D.

Even knowing what some of them are supposed to say doesn’t help as I still can’t see it although some of them become clearer. I like Korgonthurus’ logo as that still just looks like trees to me.

By the way Blacklight here’s a new signature:

I remember looking at these before. I can usually read most of them when i know what they say, but looking at them on an album and i'd have no idea.

On a side note...

Black Metal font!! ^_^
I used it for the title in an R.e essay i did quite a while ago, provided an interesting reaction too :)

@Req - XD That's a classic signature! And I remembered who's logo that odd one was - Mental Demise. XD I'm not going to try and pretend I could read the logo, though XD I just remembered who's it was!

I absolutely love these logos

I don't care if you can't read half of them, it's the design that counts
Most Metal logos are fucking awesome!
I know this is slightly more readable compared to the others, but on note, the old Dimmu logo is quite similar:

That is not a band logo, it's a horrific nettle bush accident! I hate these band logos, sorry guys......the first few times it was probably a good idea. & you could probably read them, no matter how crazy they looked. but now it seems like a competition to see how unreadable you can get them! It's ridiculous & it automatically puts me off a band usually.......but I do graphic design, so stuff like this offends my eyes lol :P

^ I agree with Dave CTE that it's not a logo. I reckon it's actually a squashed Wolf Spider.

(It probably is to be honest :P)

I think it has the letter 'O' in it the 'logo'

Can we get a clue on what famous song it's named after, this thing is impossible! The first 2 words aren't so bad, you just have to look for the slightly thicker squiggles. But it's just madness at the bottom! Can't work it out at all!!!

The band's name begins with a C

I'll give you another hint, then. The album artwork for the album that this band is named after was heavily censored for being ridiculously gory and was re-issued with a clean cover. In recent years, the CD has been rereleased, gory cover and all, but in a packet with several mocking health warnings on it :D
