How do you spell 'graaoowwll'?

Fans of underground black metal music call Christophe Szpajdel the Lord of the Logos. This eponymous book is a collection of hundreds of Szpajdel’s powerful logos, each of which captures the force of this genre anew.


Through his surprising use of aesthetic influences such as art deco and nature, Szpajdel has brought a new dynamic into the gothic visuality of heavy metal.


Although you might not always be able to read what the logos says, I think they are lovely. This book is on top of my own x-mas list to myself.
