Gigs

This is some primary research I did at a gig I went to. The images show some of the images used by heavy metal bands on their merchandise. There is a general theme in terms of use of colour with the use of black, white and reds and and subject matter with use of demonic beings and other things symbolic of hell and the devil. This helped to further affirm the research that I was finding from my secondary sources with the research project dissertation.

The one that is of particular interest the Slayer logo which uses an incomplete pentagram in reverse. I had already started researching the pentagram and its meaning. The use of it upside down seems to hold further significance as something demonic.
