Really? Hm, well, I downloaded it years ago, and all of the fonts I found called "industria" were the wrong one. Mind you, I was looking for a free one, so that's probably why.
I think that was a hand-drawn logo.. all the letters look different, and it's not only a matter of distortion..
It could probably be reproduced. I'd create the font but I'm really past my weekly share of free time.
i'd say it's a font that was then distorted with the something like a fisheye filter. that's why there are small discrepancies between letters of the same type.
I think it could be either hand-drawn or a distorted font, which in addition to the Wide-Lens effect, would have a kind of ondulation effect.
We made that logo on Anders Fridén's dad's computer back in the day, and it's a shareware font (no idea what it's called though) with some filtering.
Interesting! Thanks for that information, Caotico! I, fortunately, was able to locate the font (sample), it is called Manegrim.
And the effect was probably just Word's funny text editor thingie... oh, right - WordArt. It has the option to put it in a 'bubble' form, or at different slants and the like. ~kov.
Yes, it was just the text editor's (Word Perfect, not Word) native "effects". We were totally amazed that it was even possible to play around with the letters like that.
Ah, Word Perfect. The memories. And yeah, I spent about a week playing with that when I first found it too. ~kov.
I had always imagined the 16-year-old band members sitting around in math class, drawing logos on lined paper while the teacher glared at them.
