"When Lamb of God announced their new album, Into Oblivion, last month, one of the first things fans noticed was a dramatic change to the band's longtime logo on the cover artwork. Frontman Randy Blythe explains that the a change was needed because the old logo looked like it was from a "falafel restaurant menu." The veteran metal band's longtime logo had graced the cover of nine of their previous 10 albums (2009's Wrath is the only one without the band's name on the cover)."
"When asked by HardLore why Lamb of God decided to change their logo after all these years, Blythe responded, "Well, our logo, to be perfectly honest, needed changing. It's the papyrus font. And had we known 20-however many years ago that we would wind up looking like a falafel restaurant menu, we wouldn't have used that. But that was before papyrus font was ubiquitous.""
Into Oblivion is a newly announced Lamb of God album featuring a redesigned band logo that departs from the longtime papyrus-style mark. The papyrus font made the band look like a "falafel restaurant menu," prompting the update after years of ubiquity for that typeface. The veteran logo had appeared on nine of the band's previous ten albums. Into Oblivion is scheduled for release on March 13. A North American tour with support from Kublai Khan TX, Fit for an Autopsy, and Sanguisugabogg launches March 17 in National Harbor, Maryland.
