Slanted # 10 – Heavy Metal. Lovers. looks into blackletter fonts and their modern applications. Slanted presents the innovative work of Invisible Creature [ Seattle ], historic type-treasures from the archives of Linotype [ Bad Homburg ] and Klingspor Museum [ Offenbach ], the photo documentation 'True Norwegian Black Metal' from Peter Beste [ New York ] etc. ...

The sections 'Fontlabels, Fonts & Families', 'Fontnames Illustrated' and 'Typolyrics' introduce contemporary blackletter fonts and designers from all over the world [ e.g. Aeronaut/Georg Herold-Wildfellner, SAR-Lupe/David Millhouse, Adso/Bruno Bernard ], followed by interviews with Alejandro Paul, Bernard Stein, Alex Trochut and Christophe Szpajdel and an interesting type essay by Horst Wöhrle. Furthermore Slanted Magazine introduces numerous [ blackletter- ] projects of professionals and students [ Jeremy Hall, schmitz & wiesner, s=eee etc. ].

This issue completes the 4-part-poster-series and forms now the 4-word-sentence 'Porn 4 Type Lovers', a quote from Ivo Gabrowitsch [ FontShop International ] about Slanted.
