It was just a question I was wondering while viewing on of the threads in metal discussion. Metal Archives is pretty good about having the different logo variations of bands, but Death's has only the new one which is no where near as cool. I was just wondering why..

Doesn't look that different from the old logo, more like a different variation. Either way, it's still the classic Death logo and not something completely different (like with Immortal)

I'd say it is pretty different. The new one is lacking in a lot of detail.

Generally speaking, MA tries to use the most recent band logo/line-up photo possible. For bands that've had more than one major, distinctive logo used throughout their career (such as In Flames), we typically compile them together into the same image. For Death, I don't think it'd be necessary, since there really isn't that much of a difference. Only real difference is the cross is no longer inverted.

... wait, you're not trying to get the old logo back because you're a Christphobe, are you?

No, not at all. I am just of the opinion that the old logo looks awesome. Not even because of the cross, I just really like the reaper head hahaha

And the cobwebs.
