I love the art piece. What progs did you use to create it? Do you hang at Deviantart much?
Am I asking too many questions?
Now my one critique....the band name feels tacked on, as in an afterthought. The words deserve to be better incorporated into the great artwork above it.

I have to agree with Barry. The artwork is first rate! The text doesn't seem to be part of the overall peice, although I have no real suggestions on how to fix it.

absolutely agreed about the name. the text really isnt a part of it. they wanted to keep changing the font, so the finishing touches just arent there. to be honest i got tired of looking at it :] but i was pretty inspired for a minute.
on a side note... its really intimidating to post anything on here. there are soooo many talents on this site, i was shocked that anyone even responded. so thanks...fer real and stuffs :]

I think you really did a nice job, Sarah. There's pattern and texture but it's not overdone. Lots of raw emotion comes across.
Like others have said, not diggin' the font. You could maybe have incorporated a metal-looking raised panel underneath and put the name in it, using a (gasp!) Blackletter typestyle. I never recommend those. Or even use the font you chose but make it appear to be "stamped" into the metal panel.
Don't be afraid to post your work, it's refreshing to see. Believe it or not, some of us are afraid to critique others' stuff! Love....Jill

when the artwork gets that creepy, the font needs to get creepy too.
at www.myfonts.com search for a font called graveblade. Something in this vein will take this design to the finish line. But don't make it look tacked on as it does now.
I've got a couple of creepy fonts on the front page of my own website, but I'm not sure they will fill the bill. You need a condensed "metal band" look or a narrow scrawl font rather than a horizontal scrawl font. Keyword searches at myfonts will help.
If you find a font, keep us posted
