Mi can’t be the only one to absolutely love this logo. Wish they used it more.
One of the best band logos of all time
Fun fact, this was hand drawn
best metallica logo
This logo always looked like it was angrily staring me in the face
He never gets respect.
Takes me back to waiting for St Anger
What was it like when st anger dropped?
The lead up was amazing.
They would release small stupid snippets here and there
Always had a soft spot for this one.
That one looks sick
Where is this from?
OOF I never noticed the text change, the lil corpse always caught my attention more. Incredible art whatsoever!
I never noticed the dripping/puddle at the bottom until today for the same reasons.
Everyone has the right to dislike this logo and don't get downvotes, hasn't they?
Me: I don't like it
Me neither. I only like the logos with the long down tail on the M and A. Classic style logo - variations are acceptable but don't mess with the essence of it!
I do agree. It's like Iron Maiden begins to use other font for their logo. It's such Hard to swallow
goes hard.
I don’t mind this one. Underrated.
It’s top tier
Everything is top tier except OP
Everything is top tier*
My groom’s cake was my name in this font because that’s what they were using at the time of my wedding. If I were to login in MySpace, I bet I could find a photo of it.
It’s ok, but it’s definitely a product of its time. It fits the St. Anger album, for better or worse.
It gives me the heebie jeebies
One of my favorites
I love at anger but always thought this was a little toooo much, like it needed more balance… some different casing or sizing for the “ETALLIC” part or maybe the hooks were a little too xtreeeeeeme and we only ever get it as an outline. It’s got a lot of design elements that work against it so I get why they went back to the original as fast as they possibly could have.
I do enjoy seeing it whenever I see it though.
Comparing it to the Load/Reload era, it’s a bit of a blend of those and the classic logos while still being totally unique looking. I like it, but I think it’s probably the most “of it’s time” than any of the other logos
Nah! That logo screams of Drop C tuned guitars, Lars lifestyle that determined his snare style.
This and the MOP marble style are my favorites
I always hated the Stanger logo.
to each their own, i never liked this logo. it looks like the album sounds.
Super nostalgic to me, 2003 is when i discovered them, remember watching the Frantic video on Norwegian television with my friend, we loved it
They used it on the official poster for Santa Clara a couple weekends ago
Love the album. Hate the logo. 🤷♂️
Not a fan of the logo. I love St. Anger but there was no point in making the M and A looko like that. It's like the took those letters and bent them sideways lol
I personally adore the hardwired glitched logo.
I love it didn’t know it existed
Always loved it. It’s an awesome combination of old and new.
My favorite "METALLICA" logo.
I have a copy of Master of Puppets from Japan that uses this logo on the CD. At first, I didn't like it. But as long as the logo on the cover stays the same, I'm good with it.
The classic 3D logo is my all time fave, from Lightning, Master and the Black Album. But I like all their logos, even Load era.
actually it's St. Banger lil bro
I cringed when they changed their logo. The original is perfect.
No hate to the album, but I can’t stand that logo. Hated it at the time too.
No hate to the logo, but I can't stand the album.
I mean anything associated with shit, is likely going to be shit
The classic red is just so killer!

The best one!
Goddamn it, this screams something. I don't know what it does scream, but it screams something LOUD and BLOODY. I like this so much.
It screams “JUMP IN THE FIYAHH!!”
This is THE logo. I never liked the 3D version of it
Honorable mention to this bad boy.
