But in less queasy Guitar Hero news, design studio Pentagram has just published a nice post-mortem on their work extending the franchise's visual ident to its Band and DJ followups.

The changes necessitated creating the new proprietary font above, which go look and see how gracefully they've modified it to cut a clean peaked and valleyed line between the words on all three brands.

oh man, cool! Thanks for that. I didn't know Pentagram did that face. I've always loved it.
