DeathPop Club: Devil’s Logo Gallery
by Kinger
I know this has been around for a minute, but I thought it was a very clever and creative Metal Moment (by today’s A.D.D. standards at least).
Enter the DeathPop Club, which is a [Watercolor and Pen] recontextualization for a few pop groups who allegedly make/made the devil’s music.
← It appears there is a Dirty Black and White xerox ‘zine of the logos in the works due to the recent popularity and blogger love.
According to creator Mark Hall-Patch, “it will include some extra little fan club bonuses, with a projected release date – early New Year [2012].
*Make sure you peep Mark’s work on the site, as there are many kick-ass works on display, including: illustrations, graphic work, cartoons, mix-tape journals and video work.
P.S. I wonder what the pop stars would think of this? I like the “Bieber” logo spoof the best. Maybe Justin Bieber is a closet Slayer fan after all. Or better yet, I’d like to see Kerry King’s [not my uncle - ed] face or Mr. Araya’s reaction to the borrowing of their “devilish” logo. Digital [visual] remixing is all the rage these days so I am sure they would be good sports and spot the comedic irony here.
P.S.S. The LADY GAGA and COLDPLAY renditions are pretty funny too. Enjoy!

Metal Moment – Frozen in Time Series #1 [80's Metal]
Up next in our new section called “Frozen in Time”, we are proud to bring you some ultra-rare 80′s Metal pic’s from rock photographer Bill Hale (ex- Metal Rendezvous International). Bill is best known for his kick-ass Metallica photo book called The Club Dayz [ECW Press], which we’ve featured extensively here at Demolish HQ.
If you haven’t got your paws on this one and you consider yourself a Metallica fan, then by all means redeem yourself asap and give it a peep. It shows Metallica in their early Bay Area club dayz, and I mean early!
I should also take this time to mention that Bill will have a new photog book on Megadeth out soon entitled: Another Time, A Different Place [MTV Books]“. Best of luck to Bill on the new book and hats off for taking the time to catalog some of the earliest American Metal history. If if wasn’t for folks such as Bill – you would have nothing but a drunken, hazy memory of these bands hangin’ around in those cobwebs.
