duckBands Embrace Type

Posted in Typography by Alyssa Tucker on the October 2nd, 2007

I love it when I can enjoy a band on many different levels including music, style, appearance, and even typography. While there have been many bands that have been noted for the type used in their logo or album art, I am only here to talk about one that I’ve noticed more recently. I’ve been listening to The Birthday Massacre a lot more lately and when I saw them a couple weeks ago again, I found myself taking the time to really look at their logo while enjoying their performance. It’s fun and playful and each letter has it’s own unique place.

I could probably get into a never-ending conversation about typography used in the music industry. It’s everywhere and it’s difficult for me to sit here and pick each instance of type that impresses me. Tell me about any instances where you really enjoy the typography used in music or elsewhere.
