I know this is a rather useless post, one which doesn't bring nor ad anything substantial to anything at all, but I wanted to share with you the brand new ARCHangel (https://www.discogs.com/artist/282406-Archangel-2) logo. ARCHangel is a band/project I have been doing on and off since 1991 (1992 was the first tape release), and I decided to crate a logo to represent the band.
I basically took a loose interpretation of the Ourouboros symbol (*) and added another circular symbol in the middle of it. It's nothing fancy but it works well, is simple enough and should be quite representative of the ARCHangel sound - both timeless, minimal, but dense (if need be).
(*): Ouroboros (but "Ourouboros" in Grant Morisson's Doom Patrol... I think!):
The ouroboros (/ˌjʊərəˈbɒrəs/; /ʊəˈrɒbərəs/; Greek: οὐροβόρος) is an ancient symbol depicting a serpent or dragon eating its own tail. Originating in Ancient Egyptian iconography, the ouroboros entered western tradition via Greek magical tradition and was adopted as a symbol in Gnosticism and Hermeticism, and most notably in alchemy. Via medieval alchemical tradition, the symbol entered Renaissance magic and modern symbolism, often taken to symbolize introspection, the eternal return or cyclicality, especially in the sense of something constantly re-creating itself. It also represents the infinite cycle of nature's endless creation and destruction, life and death.
