The famous “Crossbuster” logo was created by Bad Religion guitarist Brett Gurewitz way back in 1980, when he was 18 years old. However, the stenciled band name is much more commonly used. 7 Secondsįront man Kevin Seconds created his long-running band’s logo, which features a slew of intersecting lines, angles, and a numerical “7” buried in the middle. It appeared on the cover of the band’s debut EP, Hectic, and on their only full-length LP, Energy, as well as on subsequent compilation releases. Op Ivy’s logo, commonly known as “Ska Man,” was created by vocalist Jesse Michaels in 1987. Since 1980, Osborne has created album artwork for many bands, including Circle Jerks, The Vandals, All, Tool, Tricky, Melvins, and many more. Interestingly, the smoking and boozing skeleton that represents Social Distortion was created by Mackie Osborne, wife of Buzz Osborne of the Melvins. Of course, this is a dead cow, so perhaps this would have been a more accurate logo. Dead Milkmenĭrummer Dean Sabatino designed the logo of The Dead Milkmen. The bars were inked onto each member of the band, and have been permanently branded on a multitude of fans as well. Guitarist Greg Ginn‘s brother, Raymond Pettibon, designed the distinctive logo (meant to represent a flag waving in the wind), in addition to most Black Flag album cover art. While the Misfits’ logo is the most reproduced logo of all time, Black Flag‘s simple bars logo is likely the most tattooed. The logo was designed by Dave King, a friend of drummer Penny Rimbaud. CrassĪnarcho-punks Crass had an ironically militaristic logo, and that, along with their tendency to wear second-hand surplus military uniforms onstage, led some to wrongly accuse the band of fascism.

Dan Bolles, however, was by far the longest-tenured, and he also designed the band’s simple logo: a blue circle on a black backdrop, said by some to represent a cigarette burn that vocalist Darby Crash called “the Germs burn,” inflicted on the skin of a fan or a member of the band. Amanda Palmer’s Vag-centric Video for “Map of Tasmania”ĭuring their brief history, the Germs went through a whopping nine drummers.
