Once a band has decided how to dress and what style of music they're going to make, there's one final thing left to do – design their logo.
Over the years, there have been a number of hugely memorable and influential logos – many of which have become as synonymous with a band as the music.
To celebrate this fact, Gigwise has compiled the best band logos ever. From Radiohead to Slipknot and just about everyone in between they're all featured in our new countdown.
