Slayer logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Download PNG Slayer Logo PNG One of the pioneers in extreme metal, Slayer has always opted for symbols connected with sinister and even satanic themes.
- Meaning and history The visual identity of Slayer hasn’t changed much throughout the years, though there were six logo redesigns made for the band, all the versions look similar and brilliantly reflects the genre of music and the character of the iconic band.
- The red stylized inscription was placed on a background of an unfinished pentagram, formed by four swords, enclosed in a gradient red circle.
- 1986 — 1995 The redesign of 1986 changed the color palette of the emblem and refined its contours.
- 1995 — 1998 In 1995 the band starts using simply its logotype, executed in white and red, and placed on a black background.
- 1998 — 2001 The redesign of 1988 brought a completely new wordmark to the band’s visual identity.
- 2001 — 2009 The original style of the inscription came back in 2001, though the contours were similar to the first versions of the logo, its execution was completely different — its thin lines were scratched on a white background and featured a black color.
- The renewed color palette now featured white and gradient gray, and the uneven contours looked messy yet cool, and were the most recognizable part of the band’s visual identity for six years, until the next redesign.
- The combination of yellow and red make it bright and eye-catching, and the refined contours of both graphical and text parts point to the confidence, stability, and professionalism of the band and its music.
- Pentagram symbol The incomplete pentagram motive has been a distinctive feature of the Slayer album covers ever since, including the album “Repentless” released in 2015.
- Eagle emblem The Slayer logo depicting an eagle appeared with the release of the “Seasons in the Abyss” album in 1990.
- However, the band members have denied any interest in Nazism quite a few times.
- Color In most cases, the wordmark is red.
