Great logos of bands from my younger days: Manfred Mann's Earth Band, Whitesnake (2nd logo as of 1979 with the snake head as on Lovehunter, Ready 'n' Willing etc), AC/DC, Asia, Bap (a German band), Saga (the one they used on Worlds Apart and then regularly for their newer releases as of 1999)
6:33 it was actually the "F" of Frost, that was used as an inspiration for the axe :) And the SMOULDER logo is actually quite clever, IMO. You can use it horizontally or vertically and still read it both ways.
The Chris Alo and Grant Arthur band fashion wardrobe advice: the album cover needs to look good for the tee shirt and the band logo needs to look good for the belt buckle🤘🤘🤘🤘
The Sleep logo in green colors is one of my favorites along with Thin Lizzy. I will buy a t-shirt with just the logo. With other great ones like Megadeth, Iron Maiden en Pantera i would like to have great art underneath. And i like the Magma emblem.
Not only does clutch have the best art and logos They are just THE BEST ever!!! Just discovered this channel. You guys are super music nerds, this channel is great!
One of the coolest band logo's was by a band called 'The Sign' which featured Kansas bassist Billy Greer. On the bands second and final album in 2004 called The Second Coming, the bands logo, The Sign still reads The Sign if it is turned upside down. Just like the Angel logo 👍
I’ve always liked the Chevelle logo/emblem. I’ve had strangers see me wearing one of my Chevelle shirts and they’ve commented, assuming it was in reference of the classic car. Their logo looks like the wheels on a classic Chevelle muscle car. Also, I’ve always liked the classic Dokken and Ratt logos. Liked the diagonal direction of the Dokken logo and even liked the modernized version of it on the Dysfunctional LP.
After all these years, I still think that the Venom logo is one of the best ones, and quite difficult to reproduce too (I know, I've put it on many jackets and schoolbags :-)). Somehow not far off the Yes logo, with the letters circling into one another. I quite like the Deep Purple (Stormbringer) logo as well, which is also a logo the band used on only one studio album, but that has been since utilised for Live albums/ dvd's , compilations, etc...the band even used it for its backdrop during the more recent years, which I found quite ironic since Ian Gillan is so anti MkIII... Cheers.
I agree with the King Diamond logo, I think it's perfect! The cross, symbol for Brimstone, is also in the Satanic Bible, for the Nine Satanic Statements portion, and the bat perfectly sums up King Diamond.
Fun episode! Great job! So many to choose on any category. That Boss logo is totally stealing the letter “O” from Iron Maiden logo. The only difference is the diamond and triangle shapes in the middle. Well, assuming Maiden came first. Just saying! 🔥🤘🏻🎸
Hi all. Love the channel to death. Long time viewer, second time commentator. Care to see an embryonic version of a famous NWOBHM band’s logo? Then please check out some of Gordon Giltrap’s 70s albums e.g. ‘Visionary’, ‘Perilous Journey’, ‘Fear Of The Dark’. Prepare to be delighted or dispirited.
I wasn't a fan of the Starz logo to be honest... when i first saw it, i thought it was some sort of compilation... even the name... that's why i stayed away from it until the late 90s was because of that... until i heard they were an actual band!
The Def Leppard logo and name was made up by Joe Elliot as his imaginary band while at school ion the back of one of his schools books.. The cool thing is we all did that but he went on to be not just a real band but a huge world wide band.
Please don't read chat suggestions if the cast is going to discuss it. Otherwise I love show and please keep the A-Team together of Peter, Jamie, Martin and Grant.
I don’t think anyone mentioned a great one IMO Boston. Here’s some others Accept Alcatrazz Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band Chicago Cinderella Dio Dokken ELO Fastway GTR Keel Krokus L.A. Guns Lizzy Borden Megadeth Metal Church Poison Ratt Saxon

Jaime Laszlo is a national treasure. “Helix looks like it belongs in an arcade in 1983” 😂😂😂😂
Also, the 80s Marillion logo

Ah. I knew it was ONE of those letters.
Motorhead has my favorite logo...

Australian band The Angels logo, and Bad Company, for the good.
The Sleep logo in green colors is one of my favorites along with Thin Lizzy. I will buy a t-shirt with just the logo.

@Jamie Laszlo, I love when you throw in Pittsburgh references like Ross Park Mall today, Eides in the past, etc. Great Easter Eggs for me.

Love the band logos so loved this episode indeed! Can't wait you guys discussing more at this subject 🤘
I always liked the logo for the band America
One of the first ones I thought of was Night Ranger. I love the Voivod logo. For more of an emblem, the DRI mosh guy is great.
The Kiss logo is great. Using lightning bolt -like shapes for the two s's. If it had been written any other way it could have been silly.
i just watched this now. How the heck did Grant mention the Banana Splits and then neglect to mention Lancelot Link: Secret Chimp??
The Misfits Crimson Ghost skull is a great logo. If you see that, you know who it is. Very easy to merchandise too.
The good Kiss, Chicago, rolling Stones, and iron maiden.
Heart logo. A couple of them. Dreamboat Annie, Dog & Butterfly and Bebe Le Strange.
For the good:
Kansas
Styx
Chicago
Yes
legs diamond - brilliant
The original Van Halen logo is a classic
Jamie you are a cool dude who just got cooler by mentioning MANDY. Best movie of the last 10 years.
I agree with the King Diamond logo, I think it's perfect! The cross, symbol for Brimstone, is also in the Satanic Bible, for the Nine Satanic Statements portion, and the bat perfectly sums up King Diamond.
Manowar, Mercyful Fate, Dio, ABBA, Survivor, Deep Purple (Stormbringer). Martin mentioned record label logos, could be a show.
The Blood Incantation logo is a Shrubbery! You must bring us a Shrubbery! Best are KISS, AC/DC, and a lot of others.
One that looks nice….and not too expensive…
Fun episode! Great job! So many to choose on any category. That Boss logo is totally stealing the letter “O” from Iron Maiden logo. The only difference is the diamond and triangle shapes in the middle.

UFO starting with Obsession.
Don't know if it qualifies as a logo but I like the spelling/ layout uses by the band Sunn O)))
Mamas boys had some pencil case logos back in the day...
My favorite logos are Demon,Kansas,April Wine,Ufo,Judas Priest and Y&T.
If there is a pencil case logo--> Sweet
Mandy’s a great film. Definite CF influence.
Yes logo is the best and most iconic. But angel logo which is the same when flipped upside down is to me, second
I like 2 of Martin's picks. Starz and Angel. My 2 favs

I wasn't a fan of the Starz logo to be honest... when i first saw it, i thought it was some sort of compilation... even the name... that's why i stayed away from it until the late 90s was because of that... until i heard they were an actual band!
KISS

The Def Leppard logo and name was made up by Joe Elliot as his imaginary band while at school ion the back of one of his schools books.. The cool thing is we all did that but he went on to be not just a real band but a huge world wide band.
Love how Martin thinks there are big debates about punctuation !!! Eh no...
