Here comes the text effect metal to the marrow of bones. One glance at the promo image is enough to start imagining suitable background guitar riffs. Metallica maybe? As we see a subtle homage to the “Ride the Lightning” album cover. Do you?
The visual is pretty classic: moody color scheme, bolts of lightning surrounding the text, and chrome coating of the letters. But it has a modern twist also, and we’re speaking not only about up-to-date features of the PSD template like Smart Objects. Even if the look of the effect sends us to the 80’s metal covers it doesn’t feel dated. Maybe using it for a music album cover will be too obvious and straightforward, but there are so many types of projects that crave metal aesthetics, from t-shirt designs to logo showcases.
