I was really stoked to make this logo a while back for my friends in the death-pop band The Burning Of Rome. I have a lot of respect for this band. Ian MacKaye himself could appreciate The Burning Of Rome’s DIY ethic. They record all their own music, and their records sound great with headphones on. They constantly hold concerts/art shows in their studio, Speakeasy Studios where they are building a scene in the tragically un-hip North County area of San Diego. Anton Patzner from Judgement Day (an Oakland string metal band, yep, STRING METAL) recently said it was actually a dream of theirs to come play one of these shows, as he had experienced the art friendly vibe for himself on a previous visit to San Diego. They recently got escorted off the reservation directly following their performance at the San Diego Music Awards involving some hijinx reminiscent of a Gorgoroth concert involving pig heads on poles. It’s fun to have a band in San Diego causing a ruckus, and fairly ironic that the ones to do it sound so damn catchy.
