TOP 10 CLASSIC ROCK & METAL LOGOS

NUMBER 10

This is one of those Logos that just epitomized the genre. They didn't always go with the chrome motif, but they always had the symetrical lightning bolts. And you know how symetry rocks.

NUMBER 9

Believe it or not, Blue Oyster Cult was known for more than the ultra-hilarious skit with Will Ferrel and Christopher Walken on Saturday Night Live. And if you fall in that 1% that hasn't seen that, google SNL + BLUE OYSTER CULT and enjoy. However I digress, they were known for more than that. There was this awesome instantly recognizable mystical looking Logo. And of course ' Don't Fear the Reaper'. I just had to say that song. Damnit. Now I can't help it. "I've got a fever. And the only cure is more Cowbell !" There. Whew. I feel better. And there's the Logo. It's cool.

NUMBER 8

Rarely is one dudes signature the basis for a Logo. But in this case, it is. Naturally, this is not based on Ted's actual signature (come on. get serious) but created by some graphic artist somewhere that has the bragging rights to say ' That's Ted's Logo. I did that. " The Nuge is as well known for this as he is for shooting a wild boar between the eyes. Now I'm not a hunter. So if shooting a wild boar between the eyes is not exactly what you do when you shoot boar, then my bad. I prefer my wild boar from the local supermarket.

NUMBER 7

They've been using this Logo for over 30 years. Yes. It's been that long. And it still rocks. I mean come on, tell me you don't see a Scorpion on one of those nature channels and think of this Band. Yeah. You do. We all do. Except for those that have no idea who the Scrorpions are. Those three people are just a little lonely. So we'll look past that.

NUMBER 6

What's really the Logo here ? Eddie, the Zombified Rocker Mascot or the world famous lettering ? There's even a font out there because of this. Really. Click HERE to get it. Come on. You know you've always wondered what you're name would look like in Maidenesque font type.

NUMBER 5

It's those 'S''s. That's what is so catchy here. Just look at the 'K' and the 'I'. See ? Nothing stands out there. They're just a 'K' and an 'I'. But those inverted Z looking type 'S''s. That's the KISS Logo. Hell even jungle animals on remote islands recognize this and get the urge to rock and roll all day and party every night.

NUMBER 4

This is just way cool without needing a whole lot of explaining. Judas Priest. The Logo. 'Nuff said.

NUMBER 3

Upon creation of this world reknown Logo, I'm pretty damn sure Ozzy mumbled incoherently about how cool it was. And the Logo has the added benefit of being the Logo of his Ozzness. The self professed Prince of Darkness. That'll make any Logo famous. Logos 4 - 10 above are currently experiencing Logo Envy.

NUMBER 2

I can't even name how many times I drew this Logo in high school. All over the damn place. And getting sent to the Principal's Office for doing a large VH rendition on my desk in ink was a badge of honor. Bring on after school detention ! Yeah. I was a wild one.

NUMBER 1

By using these letters and design for their Logo, AC/DC successfully took something that had always meant something else and OWNED it. Electricians everywhere probably feel a special bond with this band. Or maybe not. But we can all agree that this is probably the best known Logo in the Galaxy.
