is there any fun history behind the font some metal bands use?

It's for edgy fags who get their validation out of being try hards and pretending to be "misunderstood".

I think that's the point. You can't understand the lyrics either.

It's an aesthetic. The earliest example I can think of is Bathory/Batlord. Then I guess it was just one upmanship from there until you get to ridiculous examples like these.

It's inspired on the roots and branches of the Nordic forests or something like that

there isn't a fun story
at first bands simply wanted to make their logos edgier and more distinctive but it gradually escalated to the point it became a joke to make your logo look as stupid as possible
like any joke when it gets repeated one too many times it is not funny anymore

There is no story. Extreme Metal, specifically Black Metal, has a reputation of not being welcoming, so they adopt that aesthetic to filter normalfaggots such as: >>126715308 and rightfully so I'd say, these cunts ruin everything they touch. We don't want them.

literally NO ONE would ever be able to read that unless someone told them. they would be better off just using a non-text logo. with a logo you'd still need to be able to know the band name beforehand to say what that logo is from.

there's a certain level of intentional obscurity
lyrics are often not clearly audible as well
there's a tendency in metal to keep things hidden, cryptic, harsh and unlikable.. a filter

It's the same thing that happened to vocals in metal. People one upping each other until it gets ridiculous.
