The work of a graphic designer is primarily to understand the kind of music a band plays.
Then to put enough imagination and in the end to convince the band for its logo.
Of course, the band should also be in the mood to listen, because okay, graphic designers are not always to blame!
Also, we must not forget that even the most logo can help the band to hide the mediocrity of its music.
Certainly, however, it is a pity that remarkable bands remain in history because of their bad logos.
Let’s look at the third and last part of the “bad” – strange logos…
Sushi Roll
The band with the “S” like lightning in its logo, lost the opportunity to be their brand more remarkable than their name.
WHAM!
Ok, Wham! has nothing to do with rock, other than some nostalgia for the ‘80s.
But their speech is so outdated that designs in a cave made of a Neanderthal look more modern.
The Knack
This logo definitely does not hurt the eyes!
Their logo could give them a chance to stay in history, but…
…They stayed with “My Sharona” and only with it!
A-ha
The most likable pop-rock band from Norway did not dedicate a similar inspiration to the creation of their logo, with that in the composition of songs.
The scientific community even today ignores which unknown forces led the graphic designer to combine the italic and roman font in just 3 letters.
