Mephisto – A True Black Metal Typeface

Drenched in the essence of true black metal, Mephisto is not just a font—it’s a weapon of chaos, forged for those who dare to embrace the abyss. With jagged, razor-sharp strokes and an aggressive, ritualistic structure, this typeface embodies the raw, unrelenting energy of the second wave of black metal. Inspired by the illegible, brutal, and cryptic aesthetics of underground bands, Mephisto is designed to command attention, evoke fear, and exude pure misanthropy.

When you think of black metal, you think of the cold, bleak landscapes, unholy shrines, corpse paint, and the relentless sound of tremolo-picked guitars. Mephisto captures this very essence in typographic form, making it the perfect tool for extreme designers, metal musicians, and dark art creators. This is not a font for the faint-hearted—it is a declaration of darkness, chaos, and absolute rejection of the mainstream.
