When you think of the words "World Sin" what images do you get in your head?

I am creating a logo for my band* World Sin, and as creative as I think I can be, I really don't think I'm going to do a great job. Logo/Banner design isn't my forte.

So I'm asking my fellow friends of dA. the interwebs

The entries may be drawn or digital.

If drawn, please no photographs. SCAN IT. I can always 'digitilize' it and make it 'better' (straighter lines, unless thats the purpose of the design, etc.)


The band is Lyrical/Metal/Alternative (or is going to be...)

Currently looking for members.

*band

lulz.... what I hope to make into a band with some work. right now I'm backup vocals/rythm... I don't feel my singing is good enough to be vocals <.< at all... or anywhere close to it...



The winner may be asking what they get? Truth be told, I haven't quite made up my mind... I was thinking our first album free (when its made), or promo stuff (if the band gets a decent starting and we have a good design, you'd get the band shirt with your design on it (optional: With the band's signature on it! (You never know if we'll become famous and that free shirt just turned into a quick $1,000. lol))

turn around....
Aw dammit, California...
Looks like I can't be vocals huh?
Shame, I always wanted to play vocals in a Metal Band, I can do a rhythmic melodic voice and the heavy screeches.

But, a logo... Like the bunnies from AFI?
Hm...
World Sin....
I'd have to get back to you on that.

I can't draw for crap, but I think of something along the lines of this:

Already used an image similiar to that for my old back "WtmW" that failed epicly. :laugh: don't want to use something almost exactly the same as my previous band.

I want something eye-catching and intriguing.

EDIT:

@knux

You know those screaches/yells are horrible for your vocal chords? (Unless you can do it properly, but then it doesn't exactly sound the best..)

But I wish I could get that rythmitic voice D:

Rock beat and rhythmic voice = winnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

this should be your logo:

WorldSin.

Where the O is a pic of the earth.

I'm not very creative, but I tried to help since I like you.

Eh, I'm not trying to get anything thats a planet or anything.

Something about planets and anything rock or harder just... looks stupid in my eyes...


I have 2-3 people trying to draw the name "World Sin" for a neat design.

(Sketch, Trace Outline + Mild shading if needed, then I get the work, trace it over in Photoshop and see if I like it)

So if anyones good with drawing words in an abstract (BUT LEGIBLE) manner, thats something you can do. Just try not to do anything to cliche.


But yes, any hard instrumentals + rythmitic voice = auto-win 99% of the time.

And aww :flirty: you like me? :p

I say a healthy combination of rhythmic and heavy is win more so than just one or the other.

I see something more abstract than representative for a logo, something that suits the name, but doesn't define it.
Like a bruised hand on fire.

Hmmm.... I don't know, you kind of threw a curve ball by calling your band WorldSin and not wanting a pic of any planets.

How about WorldSin in metal letters and with various bullet holes in parts of it?

No, that's probably been taken. Sorry, out of ideas.

Why is the only thing coming into my head right now is the third hit of Kirby's Mic power?

Blind Sight or World Sin.

4/5 people in our band voted World Sin.

I voted Blind Sight. >_>

Because none of us want a planet in our logo.... (although I'm thinking it may be allowed, so long as it doesn't look earth like... more like a Mar's thing)

Blind Sight > World Sin imo.

Blind Sight sounds more emo.

That's not the point :laugh: we have some lyrical crap that I haven't even sung yet but I've had people go "**** I have a feeling that songs going to be amazing"

A fellow soldier is down. The Captain orders us to fire.
Tears in our eyes, as the flames keep getting higher.

We are nothing but murderers, with a government seal.
In a foreign land, that feels so unreal.

The lead and rythm guitar is done. Intro to our first album. Just need to figure out how I want to sing it. :)

Metal / Alternative Rock / Lyrical

We have a few songs that are very very basic instrumentals (they just give 'strength' to the vocals) but we also have more hardcore stuff, and some Rise Against like Rock
