Just got this fun shirt. Can any metalheads out there identify all the bands by font? I know a few, but definitely not all of them.

@voltronic wouldn't that be a classical music woodstock?

The Metallica, Slayer, AC/DC and Megadeth ones are easily recognizable. I recognize Cradle of Filth as well... 🤔

@voltronic @Render @BillyBones @stueytheround @opie @northernbassist

I THINK Wagner is Manowar. I'm disappointed I don't see Deicide on here. And there should be a Nini, with a NIN logo. 🤣🤷🏻‍♂️

@voltronic @Render @BillyBones @stueytheround @opie @northernbassist

@Heucuva8
You've named the ones I can definitely manage.
I *think* bottom right might be Death.
Is Tchaikovsky Scorpions maybe?

@voltronic @Render @BillyBones @opie @northernbassist

@Heucuva8 Tchakovsky isn't Scorpions is it? What a silly boy I am. They have a more curvy font.

Judas Priest???

@voltronic
This is driving me nuts. 🤣
I recognise the fonts but it's still really hard!
I bet Render nails a few of these.

@BillyBones @ShazzaRazza
Ooh, good one. I actually have heard of them, only because some former students were big fans.

@voltronic We're thinking Mozart *may* be Orpheum. @ShazzaRazza does graphics & tubes as a hobby and says it's the Orpheus font, which would tie in (when you use the font itself it gives the 'o' with the dot in it).

@stueytheround @opie @Heucuva8 @Render @northernbassist

@BillyBones
You've never heard of Dragonforce?
It's like STeve Vai and EVH had a secret lovechild!
Epic arena metal and famously featured on Guitar Hero!

Allow me to introduce you.

This is Through the Fire and the Flames

@stueytheround I think what's happened is that the shirt has been created using the fonts, so some letters get changed if they have 'glyphs' (embellishments) @ShazzaRazza @opie @Heucuva8 @voltronic @Render @northernbassist

@stueytheround I've no idea why @ShazzaRazza doesn't just pop in and type this herself, but here's what she found. Go to the link and type in Beethoven in the field below the Dragonforce logo 👍

@opie @Heucuva8 @voltronic @Render @northernbassist

@stueytheround 👍 She's working on Tchaikovsky now. I thought it was Alcatrazz but it's not quite there. @ShazzaRazza @opie @Heucuva8 @voltronic @Render @northernbassist

@BillyBones
Oh FFS
Look at the T, Y and the H in Tchaikovsky! It's Thin Lizzy! It just looks weird using the font, but not Lizzy's layout.

@ShazzaRazza @opie @Heucuva8 @voltronic @Render @northernbassist

@stueytheround I really want to kick myself for missing one of my favourite bands, but I'm not sure that's it, mate. The T is more stylised and the Y on the shirt is more like a '4' @ShazzaRazza @opie @Heucuva8 @voltronic @Render @northernbassist

@BillyBones
Hmm.
Maybe. Again, might be a font issue.
The people selling this shirt on FB (yep. That's the first google link) are absolutely not paying for copyright permission! @ShazzaRazza @opie @Heucuva8 @voltronic @Render @northernbassist

@rych @voltronic @Render @BillyBones @stueytheround @opie @Heucuva8 @northernbassist That burzum font looks like something Opeth used back in his earlier days, late 2000's I think. Seen the type on album covers.

Many of them are GMT -5, so it's 7:30 am. They're either on their way to work, or like me, home from it. 😁

@PaganMother @rych @voltronic @Render @BillyBones @stueytheround @opie @northernbassist

@PaganMother
Sorry I missed this earlier. I think you might be right about Opeth. The logos I have found are close, though the "p" is more pointy in "Chopin". It's annoying because I *know* I know these! 🤣
I'm one step away from digging out my entire CD collection 🤣
