Let's have a look at exactly what's wrong with the terrible artwork of Kanye West and Ty Dolla Sign's upcoming album, Vultures.
The official artwork, posted on Instagram by Ty Dolla Sign on December 12th, has certainly gotten people talking.
From its lackluster and basic graphic design - which draws inspiration from some questionable sources ranging from Burzum to totalitarianism - to the potential effects on the overall metal scene, caused by this mass-adoption of metal art aesthetics by the mainstream music and fashion industries. ⚔️
If you enjoy this type of topical video on current design trends and want me to make more, just shout in the comments. It was a lot of fun!

Mainstream is just starting to slowly cannibalize the extreme metal aesthetic. They look for 'new' old, add a bit, rehash it, sell for premium to people who need to feel special/different.. it's a pattern and metal aesthetic is the next scapegoat. I've been listening to rap and metal simultaeonously most of my life and I think its a net possitive but sure feels fkin weird and bizare seeing this crossover.

I think that over time the aesthetic is going to be stolen from us. Mainstream is going to take and adapt it, people are going to associate it with somehing else than black metal. That's a danger for our niche. This aesthetic is great and it's ours, we should defend it.

Another interesting fact. They were playing the 25 minute instrumental song from filosefem as the intro for their 2nd listening party. Was a fun video to stumble upon. In all honesty as someone who toured in the hardcore world for a few years successfully. I think it’s better to see the aesthetic adopted by other genres, in all honesty heavy music is very cringe these days.

@@SpearheadMedia I'd seen that image of the four trolls huddled around a small girl, but didn't know his name. Checking out his works now, I am instantly smitten! What a gorgeous style! I'm definitely taking a trip to the museum. No doubt it will be greatly inspiring. Seeing artworks on display irl gives a completely different experience and impact compared to just seeing an image of them through a screen. First time I visited an art gallery was at the Munch Museum in Oslo, and it was amazing how the paintings just come alive when you actually see them on a canvas. It's like there's this depth in them that gets completely lost in scans and photos. And yet, Bauer's pieces are already inspiring me. Can't wait to see his works in person. My favorite Kittelsen piece would be either Nøkken (The Nix) or Kvitebjørn Kong Valemon (White Bear King Valemon). Not exactly his most obscure works, but sometimes, the works are highlighted for a reason. They just exhude that spooky yet magical atmosphere that I love so much in folk tales.

As someone who has spent basically my entire life in the punk and hardcore scenes, I could not possibly agree more with every single word of this video. This level of exposure to the punk/hardcore/metal aesthetic is certainly a double edged sword, but I lean toward the positive aspects just like you. Please keep putting out all the videos you make, including these little rants. Your design tutorials have taught me so much and I love the vibe of your whole channel.

The question I have with the use of heavy metal aesthetics when the music itself is not comparable to that, is, doesn’t that take away from the value of the art if the styles are dissimilar? I always loved the heavy-metal aesthetic, but I don’t make heavy metal music so I felt weird about having album arts and merch and things like that that were so unlike the music that I put out.

Ye's recent Burzum homage didn't actually surprise me much-he's been spotted wearing Testament shirts, which seems like a slightly deeper pull than someone just picking that kind of clothing purely for the visual, and he's sampled various heavier artists in the past (although I was unaware that he'd sampled Varg outright before)-but it was this very specific, weird mix of darkly funny and depressing, because he knows *exactly* who he's signalling to and does not give a fuck about the ramifications, and for an artist of his stature, that's disquieting. Had he done this back around the time he made Yeezus or something you could write this off as an edgelord thing, a provocative joke, but it's clearly not a joke at this point save between him and the Nick Fuentes-adjacent part of his audience. The fact that it's kind of half-assed only underlines this fact to me. It's a /pol/ meme. And that's pretty gross!

The reason Kanye wore that Burzum shirt and was heavyily inspired by it for his merch was because of a rapper Playboi Carti's friend named Burberry Erry who helped style for Kanye and he is a big fan of Burzum he is a fashion dude who has a lot of punk and black metal influences you can tell by his look he has big liberty spikes.

Profanity and laziness hits hard on morale of people like you who dig their ground with their own horns just to refine their art, but hey it is a path of a true samurai! I love your channel and very happy you post your work and tutorials so we could grow and become who we want. Finding teachers who love their craft (like you) and be able to learn from them is just priceless. Unfortunately in post modern era value is not about skill and art, but more about cringe, low key emotions and other basic animal reflexes which sometimes may create something unique just because it is breaking all the rules, but overall just produces more garbage. But hey, value of people like you is growing, especially compared to such profanity like "kanyes geniousness" . Sry for my english i hope you dig the message.

Varg is the best!He came to prominence because he created music that became an inspiration for new black metal genres for years to come!And not because he played bass in Mayhem nor because he killed Euronymous!In his music he never promoted Nazism but his Viking/Norwegean heritage and how it was all destroyed after the Christianisation of the North! This days everyone is Antisemitic and they are promoting the destruction of Israel but for some reason it is accepted and celebrated by the mainstream media!!But still if you say Burzum on any platform of Meta you get banned!Something is critically wrong with our current society

Bah. Don’t make fashion of our passion. They can’t stick to their shit and leave alone the small livelihood to the metalartists. They should not abuse the culture and language of the metal scene… no one makes enough from merch or let alone shows. Most of us play for free or even pay to play. And these artists makes way too much. I appreciate designers getting more money but honestly. Fashion companies can fuck off. Buy the shirts etc from the actual bands instead.

Any publicity is good publicity to some. Once again, an artist that the news and social media has tried to ban into oblivion is being featured internationally and getting more publicity than anyone could wish for. This is also at no cost to the artist. Those who try to ban ideas, thoughts, and people always end up with the opposite result.

Pffff lmfao. The second worst rip-off since the Teddy YG/Cattle Decapitation incident. Also that logo with the double headed eagle is just the nationality marking/shoulder patch of the german federal police, the only differences are in the font and eagle head count. It's only getting worse and worse with kanye lol. I'll get some popcorn...

Agree with everything you said. Incredibly lazy design by Gosha. I actually happen to like some Burzum stuff, despite Varg being a bit looney, but this attempt with Ye is definitely just for controversy. Even still, it wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't so damn lazy. They couldn't even properly adjust the kerning of the type. Lol. Good vid, man!
