Description: Lookout Records pop punkers from Indiana featuring Mass Giorgini. Mass is founder/owner of the Sonic Iguana recording studio, where many of your favorite records were recorded. Their song "Social" was in the opening credits of the Kevin Smith film "Mallrats". This is one of their older logo types.
Description: 90s Pop Punkers from Italy. Toured the states once with Squirtgun. Super catchy tunes in line with that era of Lookout! Records tunes (Squirtgun, Screeching Weasel, The Queers, etc.). Absent from streaming services stateside, but you can listen to the rerecorded version of their debut on their Bandcamp page. Highly recommended!
Description: Indianapolis' Chamberlain started as the hardcore band Split Lip in the early-to-mid 90s before shifting to emo/post hardcore/indie rock with their release "Fate's Got A Driver." They then shifted to a more roots rock approach with their next release "The Moon My Saddle." The asterisk logo is one that I saw in their latter era.
Description: Southern California pop-punk legends The Tank began as a marriage of the bands Brown Lobster Tank and Welt. They released a few EPs, a few albums (one on Dr. Strange Records, one on Boss Tuneage) and the band has taken a backseat to its members' other projects, including Gameface and The Implants.
Description: Criminally underappreciated San Diego power pop superstars. They released albums on Militia Group and Summertone in the mid-2000s and have been largely quiet since. They even appeared on the children's show Yo Gabba Gabba! Their bassist, "O" (skateboarder, photographer, and frontman of Fluf), passed away in 2023.
Description: Shiner was one of the greatest Indie/Emo/Post-Hardcore bands of the late 90s / early 00s. This star design is pulled from an old maroon and white sticker I have. The design itself was already intentionally super grainy. I tried to clean it up a little so it printed nicely at a larger size.
Description: One of the 90s most underappreciated bands, Ruth Ruth had 4 releases on 4 labels before disbanding in the late-90s to pursue other projects. They reunited in the mid-00s to record a new album. They're most success was found as a buzz bin band on MTV with their video for "Uninvited" in the mid-90s, which featured the band playing in a bubble. This Baby Ruth-inspired logo was the one featured when they were on American Recordings, which was their debut album.

This logo was the one feature in their RCA era and was on the cover of their "Are You My Friend?" album.
Description: One of the 90s greatest lost bands. Signed to Atlantic, sold maybe 1,000 copies of their album and was dropped. One of the catchiest of the era... just no support behind them. The guitarist was once a tourist guitarist with Green Day and I believe he has a band with Mike Dirnt (I could be wrong though). Additionally, the guitarist/vocalist went on to form The Effection which released an album on Billie Joe's Adeline Records label. This band is pop punk with small touches of ska, while The Effection was more heavily inspired by Elvis Costello and The Jam.
Description: Like alternative rock? You have Paul Westerberg, Tommy Stinson and the rest of The Replacements to thank for it. One of the most influential bands of 80s... not necessarily with records sales, but with overall influence on bands we've grown to love. This logotype design was pulled from an old flyer.
