Look at the covers of all your favorite metal album . While they ’ll probably settle into a few different school day of design , you’re able to wager not a single one reckon like anything that came out of the 1950s jazz scene . But judging fromBrazilian designer Rafael Melandi ’s redesigns — mayhap they should have .
The project , appropriately if not a little awkwardly dub “ Metazz , ” looks at iconic metal record album covers through the lens of a 1950s malarky esthetic . AsMelandi told Decibel Magazine :
I witness that [ Blue Note - era ] jazz track record covers have the same force and loudness as metallic element record album do – not need to represent them with scandalous ikon like blood , gore and ‘ shuddery ’ illustrations like metal .
And it would certainly seem like he ’s succeeded . Because while the classics are peachy , a few these — the Motörhead and Black Sabbath covers , specifically — are even better than the original .
