Enter Sandman

Design 330—Typography

This poster is an illustrative, modern rendition of Metallica’s 1991 hit, Enter Sandman. It evokes a lurking, nightmarish feeling with the tendrils creeping towards, and wrapping around, the typography. The gradient background supports the idea that the tendrils are coming out of an abyss. Within the Metallica-esque typographic elements, sits a figure that is fading away into particles. This once again evokes the feeling of slipping away into a dream or a nightmare, while also referencing the name of the song.
