first of all, logos are very metal

as they are not that important in any other genre (maybe except for some hc/punk bands). on "other" records, it's mostly the cover design that defines the font of the band's name, in metal logos are trademarks! (strangely enough. i.e. BLACK SABBATH never had a constant logo over several albums..)
one of the greatest I believe has not been mentioned yet: POSSESSED! other great ones that come to my mind: SCORPIONS (discontinued!), DEATH, TESTAMENT, RUNNING WILD, ...
and I loved drawing ANTHRAX all over my school stuff back then

..
among the newer ones, I love the SATYRICON logo as it is not one of those unreadably scribbled "kvlt" BM writings..

Too many times! School books, desks and everything in between!

Has anyone mentioned Root? The one from "The Temple In The Underworld" era is cool.

ALL SABBAT (Jap.) logos - they are great, esp. the Fetishism one. And I remember looking for hours at the MAYHEM logo on the Deathcrush mini LP years ago. So perfect...

Anyone ever notice the back of the FLOTSAM & JETSAM album HIGH with the tracklisting done in classic metal logos... about the only thing cool with that album

I side with all who pointed out VoiVod Roar/Killing/Dimension era.
Celtic Frost
Morbid Angel

In general I like logos which at least hint on symmetry.
