Old Opeth logo?

[blakmetalemp]

I was just looking thru their merchandise page and saw the "old logo" tshirts. My question is this, where and when was this logo used? Garage band days?

 

[dorian gray]

for some reason, the image isnt coming up, or else id make a comment. in the meantime, im just going to make this the tennessee-only thread.

Garage band days?

Yep. Mike designed it early on.

Actually there are two old Opeth logos.

From opeth.com:

1990-93 logo:

Drawn by Danken

1993-96 logo:

Drawn by Mike.

Check the site eh?

 

[Blackwater_Park]

The first logo is cool

No, it's just your average pseudo black metal logo.

The less than black metal logo (Drawn by Mike) can be found on the back of Orchid's lyric book, on my copy anyway. Whether they changed this when the picture disc version was released I don't know....anyone??

However I've never seen the other logo on anything....

 

[Schmuckatelly]

Yeah its on my Orchid sleeve but mine is not a picture disc. Its just blue.

It's on Lopez's shirt during the heavy set on the DVD. You can still buy it, but they changed the logo before they got signed so it's not on any CD's.
