Alice Cooper logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- 1969 The debut studio album, Pretties for You (1969), featured the name of the band in a totally generic sans based on the circle shape.
- The second album, which was released the following year, showcased a 3D wordmark with shades.
- It combined wide letters based on a circle shape with sharp, angular glyphs.
- 1975 Welcome to My Nightmare was Alice Cooper’s first solo album (the previous ones were band efforts).
- The 1976 album cover had a Gothic feel and used a historic-style type, whereas the font on the Lace and Whiskey album cover (1977) included a generic sans.
- 1986 – 2020 The logo used by Alice Cooper from 1986 to 2020 was all the same dripping lettering in two levels.
- Due to the use of a monochrome color palette, the emblem could be placed on any background of the album cover or posters.
- 1987 — 1989 The redesign of 1987 introduced one more version of the Alice Cooper logo.
- Though it was a bold and confident badge, it stayed official only for a few months.
- The dripping letters got bold and tall, with the contours a bit narrowed, but due to the thickness of the lines, it didn’t look compressed, on the contrary, the inscription was solid and stable.
- The following album, Raise Your Fist and Yell (1987), supported the same theme.
- 2011 — Today While that’s an utterly generic style, no one seemed to bother about that, and the “bleeding” logos have been used multiple times during the years to come.
- Each time, the design depended on the overall style of the album cover, so we cannot say that the musician cared much about keeping a consistent visual brand identity.
- We should also mention the 2011 release, Welcome 2 My Nightmare – the same wordmark can still be seen on Cooper’s website, as of 2020.
