About that logo

I met Necro at a party the other day, and we had a few laughes as usual. We came to talk about the different documentaries that are being produced, and he said that even I have told things that aren't quite true in my interviews. Well, I guess not - it's been some years and I can't remember everything correct. And besides, things can come out wrong when things are cut and put together to make a good movie. It really isn't of any importance - usually.

But what bothers me is that I actually remembered the making of the Mayhem logo wrong. And it didn't come out wrong because of things taken out of it's contex. I just remembered it wrong. If it was me, or Necro it was about, I wouldn't bother much about it. But in this case I must appologize to my friend Nella.

So, even if I say different in an interview, the truth is that we have Nella to thank for this legendary logo.

Hails, ruben :-)We did that with all tapes. But I guess you see pictures of either Pure Fucking Armageddon or Deathcrush demo tapes.

I was wondering who Nella was. I am a student designer myself and would love to see more of his work if you could be of any help. Thanks!

Isn't Nella one of Maniac's siblings? I might be wrong...

Anyway, Nella also designed the logo for Decay Lust (sure), and possibly one of the early logos for Slayer Mag (almost sure).

Interesting blog, quite enlightening.

This post reminded me of this: another article regarding the MAYHEM logo:
