AltarEgo presents new logo

Dutch death metal band AltarEgo reveals its official new logo today. The band, who changed their name to AltarEgo in 2018, changed the logo to suit its new identity.

Vocalist Janneke de Rooy stated:
“We always had the intention of changing the AltarEgo logo. At the time (2018), we liked what we had in such short time because we wanted to let the world know about our name change. However, this time, with 2 new members, it only made sense to create both a new logo as well as a new band photo. I think that the logo we have now truly represents AltarEgo in its purest form.”

Apart from a new logo, the band recently announced two new members. Maik Snippe and David Veldhuis will be taking over from Erwin ‘Bakvet’ Koerts and Bas Karman.

AltarEgo will be headlining a festival in the Czech Republic on December 28, 2019. More show dates for 2020 will be announced soon.

AltarEgo was founded by guitarist Marcel Verdurmen in 2016, initially as Altar, the band he was part of  from 1995 to 2001 and later from 2002 to 2007. The band changed their name to AltarEgo in 2018, to avoid conflicts with the original members of Altar, who do one-off festival appearances since then. AltarEgo released a self-financed EP earlier this year, entitled ‘The Exorcism Of Jesus Christ’, to massive critical acclaim.
