Why? It's shoddy six minute CGI.

I'm partial to the original Rush logo and even have a shirt to show it off!
And while they aren't prog in the least, I also like Foo Fighters' logo.  Has a classic feel to it:

I thought the way they integrated the infinity symbol was pretty neat since it's a theme that pops up in his music a lot.

To change the subject slightly, is it my age or do a lot of metal bands have unreadable logos these days?




This should go well in the "illiteracy" thread LOL
Geez it looks like a glorified butterfly collection!
 
I always thought that when i flick through metal Cds and it is rather strange to have illegible logos. i thought bands wanted to be known.... not black metal it seems. These logos look like art designs - symmetrically balanced and lots of Gothic touches.  Not one logo above is legible... not one... weird.

After Magma and YES, my third favourite probably is the modern KC logo:

The cover of Goldmine Magazine's "Prog Rock" issue has a graphic that shows Yes, ELP, Genesis and Flash logos! 

Flash had a very elegant logo, nearly art-deco in design.  See:

Maybe it's not a logo but it's cool.
