This metal logo taught me Latin

- An unreadable metal logo with five letters would normally be a walk in the park... unless the letters aren't exactly there in the first place. And especially not if it's in Latin. This logo is reminiscent of modern cybersigilism and is almost entirely symmetrical, save for a couple of small details that gave me nothing more than hints as to what and where the letters are. It is distinct from the typical "metal logo" aesthetic, but shares some similarities in style with that of Krallice (of the other logos I have looked at so far). Certainly not a challenge to be met by the faint of heart.
This logo was submitted by a viewer on Instagram. If there's a logo that you want me to take a look at, comment the band's name below and I'll consider it for a future episode!
This footage was recorded in anticipation of episode 28 of Deciphering Metal Logos to be released on Instagram. DML, for short, is part of an ongoing series in which I attempt to accurately identify all of the letters in metal band logos - often with some guidance from the original designer.
Logo Designer: Einar Fredriksen
Fredriksen sadly passed away in 2003. Any comments made about his logo design in the video above are not intended to disregard or disrespect Fredriksen in any way.
Band name: Odium

Do you stream these live somewhere? would be lovely to watch
That is something I would like to do in the future! I've also thought about streaming my metal logo design process, and that's something that a lot of my Instagram followers seemed to be interested in.
The problem right now is that my desktop computer broke and I'm currently working off of my laptop... which is not powerful enough to handle a streaming setup. As soon as I can afford it I'll get a new desktop.
Imagine a real metal band name being named cream
Now imagine the pit at one of their concerts
@@OctaveIndustries oh god- yk what fuck it I'm gonna make a logo that says cream
@@jackkillian9581 please share it with me when it's done ^^^
@@OctaveIndustries of course! I'll make it extra illegible for youuuu

Oh yeah, my favorite metal band: Optimus Prime
Pitching an alternate timeline where the autobots and decepticons are touring together as metal bands and they're just beefing the whole time
There's multiple band logos I can think of that I'd love to see deciphered XD
Send em in!
@@OctaveIndustries where can I send them in?
@@Wesman2020 feel free to mention the band names here - or if you want me to start from just an image, you can email it to me from the address listed in my channel bio or DM me on Instagram!
7:05 remember though, we write "th" because that was a latin approximation of a greek letter, but i guess if you knew this was a native latin word then that would be fine
...I hate that I actually clocked "Odium" after just seeing an O and a M and then knowing that it is 5 letters and it looking black metal-ish - and when I then heard that it is supposed to be latin, I was practically sure. One of the few latin words I happen to know because of a song by the band Naglfar named Odium Generis Humani - meaning "hatred for the human race"... Naglfar are a (melodic) Black Metal band, so that tracks.
