Metal Tattoos??!

Post by Korgüll »

Does anyone have any of their fav band logos or iconic album/logo images tattooed on them?

Amongst many others (non-metal related), I have a robotic ant tattooed on my arm, designed for me by Away (Voivod) when i was in the Iron Gang many years ago. I also have the Rush 'Starman logo' tattooed just underneath it & a Lynyrd Skynyrd 'gun girl' image from the 'Nuthin' Fancy' LP on my leg...

Anyone else have any band tatts? :) Maybe the Bathory goat or Celtic Frost pentagram logo thingy?????

I hope no one here has the Sepultura tribal logo tattoo!!!!!! :x

Not sure if this is a topic for 'Land Of Mystery' perhaps? DaN feel free to move it on if so...

A friend of mine has the Saint Vitus 'V' on his leg (calf I think).

I gots the almighty Satan off the Show No Mercy done on my right arm and Destruktors Nuclear Storm cover on the left arm. The Show No Mercy tatt looks wonky in this photo for some reason, it looks better and straighter in the flesh! (no pun intended).

Next in line is a tatt of Stevie Ray Vaughan across the chest once money permits.

Holy fuck. I don't go for tattoos a lot of the time but that's just class work. Congratulations on both taste and on the inker you found to do it justice!

Fuckin' beautiful!

Never went under the needle myself. Back when I wanted to, I couldn't afford it and when I could, the interest had faded.

Damn! I was considering getting the King Of The Dead piece, but now that someone else has it, it's lost its appeal somewhat.

Oh well, I'm still going to do the Manilla Road - Excalibur (from the "Open The Gates" inner sleeve).

I don't care for tattoos much, but that King of the Dead tattoo looks GREAT.

Thanks everyone, I am really happy I decided to get it.

Next I'm getting Mercyful Fate - Melissa cover on my other arm. Not that shitty dark reissue one.
