needs more blood

and mutilated girls.

The blood just looked too dark and blended in with the black too much. Made it hard to read.

Also starts to look gory pretty quickly.

You can see some of the other versions here:

I like the one with the blood but without the nails. If your designer is going to use nails, he should use three different nails. That's the same nail. Or screw. Whatever. I hate when graphic designers cheat and use the same image numerous times in the same image.

I think they represent the three nails that pierced Christ's body, they need to be the same.

I like it!

They should be squared off and perhaps the bottom one should be below the "O"

So the three nails that pierced Christ's body were the same exact nail?

I like it.

I'm going to hell for laughing at that, I just know it.

Either way, cool logo. I prefer it a bit over the old one.

Well the nails would look somewhat similar is what I was trying to say. Besides most depictions of the nails I've seen has shown them pretty uniform.

Similar is one thing, but that is the same exact picture of a nail used three times. In fact, it looks more like a screw to me.

And if the nails are meant to depict the nails used on Christ, they can't be modern-looking like those. They have to be manually-shaped nails, which back then were more like spikes. Like this...



Yeah, I'm meticulous.

in all honesty, i like this one best...


...but you gotta go with your gut.

Yeah, use nails/wooden pegs instead of bolts and the bottom one should be driven upwards for better readability. Otherwise, cool logo.

I also prefer the version with the blood and no nails.

If that's the same as anal, then I agree.

I think the logo looks great but agree with Eyesore. Those nails looks like modern bolts and not at all like nails that would be used thousands of years ago to hang someone up on a cross......
More important, is the album coming soon?

Agreed and I dig the plain one as well!

I agree with Eyesore on this one.You should use an old looking spike and not a modern bolt.Anyway,the one with blood is the coolest,IMO.

I like that one too, but as Stormspell mentioned, change the position of the bottom spike so it doesn't obscure the logo. The look of the spikes is fine to me.

Wow, you really took the time to notice the nails? Remind me to have you look over any contracts I may need to sign.

I think the presence of the nails is a little too "over the head"...without the nails, the placement of the blood by itself is more subtle and subliminal...but still puts forth the same message, IMO.

I think "without" the nails is good too.
