Rockin' fonts

Via Foreword, a trove of fonts based on the graphic identities of various rock bands. Metal and neo-punk are over-represented, but they're the ones most likely to go for edgier typefaces.

On another note, my in-laws sent me The Way Up by the Pat Metheny Group for my birthday. I'm about to pop it in the player, but I've spent the morning fixated on the visual design: a sequence of vertical elements—trees, posts, poles and the like—that carry the theme of the title through the CD booklet. You can see some of the pictures on the group's website. Coherent. Pleasing. Brilliant.
