-Poison Tongues

Hailing from Detroit Michigan, this metal band means business! Purposefully rough around the edges and embodying all that comes with high-decibel energy, the Poison Tongues were formed from Hardcore/Punk scene originals and wanted to represent that history while remaining relevant and reaching new audiences.

Being Detroit Hardcore scene veterans all eyes were on this new project, there was no room for missteps in tone, intention or intensity. We created a visual identity that spoke to their audience by keeping a familiar vibe but wrapped it in a fresh new package, upping the ante for visual queues that match their sonic offerings.

Visual Identity

Aggressive, loud, honest and forever are values at the core of this outfit. We needed to nail these to get the respect of the scene and ensure the band would be proud to stand under that banner. We designed dozens of options and narrowed them down to just the right tone, custom type was drawn for all messaging and a unique colour palette was developed to set them apart.

Band Support

We designed album packaging, tour posters, online promotional materials, t-shirts and that sold out at many shows, we always get a kick out of seeing a shirt or patch on a jacket out in the wild.
