Malformed

Helping a new deathcore duo leave a lasting impression right out of the gate.

When I was approached about doing work for a new deathcore project, Malformed, I knew it was going to be an awesome opportunity. The band takes inspiration from epic dark fantasy lore, games, & series and we wanted to establish a brand and look that would stay consistent and timeless as the project grows.

Malformed wanted their logo to be reminiscent of an ancient sigil. While diving into this process, the custom type reading out the band’s name starting taking form using inspiration from Norse runes.

With different stories and inspirations coming through in each single, the goal in the art is to keep the branding consistent and always badass. The art is always reminiscent of the song’s content and is designed to help the listener set the mood.

As the project grows and creates more awesome music, it’s important to keep promoting that new music through co-branded imagery.
