"I am 37 years old, I come from Belgium but I live in Exeter, Devon, in the UK. In the last 20 years I have drawn more than 7,000 logos, mostly for black- and death-metal bands from all over the world, including Emperor, Moonspell, Nachtmystium, and Enthroned."
Meet Mr Death Metal, brilliantly spotted by Mike.

Wow, these people have the market cornered. Maybe in this 'global economic downturn' period there is work to be had in Chicken restaurants and Metal logos!
I must say though that there are some very iconic metal logos, Metalica, Megadeth, Iron Maiden etc. Personally I think they're all great fun.
You need to look at this link. The top 13 most unreadable metal logos. I was actually almost crying with laughter at number 1!!

I believe Christophe (The Lord of Logos) actually works in the local co-op here in Exeter. A little disappointingly unsatanic and evil.
A nice video of his logo work can be found here: http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=55186326

Didn't Steve Harris (bassist and founder of Iron Maiden) design the Iron Maiden logo himself?
