SANGUISUGABOGG Call Out Streetwear Brand Revenge for Using Their Logo Without Permission

Ohio death metal outfit Sanguisugabogg have called out Los Angeles-based streetwear brand Revenge for allegedly stealing and manipulating their signature logo for use on a new jacket design — without permission or collaboration.

The jacket in question is scheduled to drop this Friday, October 31st, on Revenge’s official website. Known for their collaborations with rappers like XXXTentacion, the brand appears to have incorporated a modified version of Sanguisugabogg’s logo into their design, which the band says they had no knowledge of.

The group initially addressed the situation online, posting:

“Edit (For record, they took our logo without any of us knowing.. a huge street wear company big in hip hop seen on games like gta v)
Damn we got the unofficial @revenge x @sanguisugaboggband collab before GTA 6
Next time tag us..
Catch us on tour it starts next week.”

After some fans mistook the post as confirmation of an official collaboration, Sanguisugabogg clarified in a follow-up comment:

“This caption is going over yalls heads. They took our logo and manipulated it without our knowledge — it’s not a collab.”

The band will soon hit the road in support of their new album Hideous Aftermath, joining Despised Icon, Defeated Sanity, and Corpse Pile, along with select appearances from Ringworm, Skinless, Upon Stone, Bayway, Everybody Dies, Gorgasm, Volcano, Ran Thru, Bludgeoned By Deformity, and Anatomize.
