I genuinely figured these were just gibberish, created for the sake of the meme. Or at most that someone took actual band logos and added more superfluous Iines to them to make them even more unintelligible. But no, judging by your links, it looks like these are real logos that are actually in use by legitimate bands.

    I can kinda see it but they should really add some color to make the words more distinguishable.

    But something tells me that would defeat the point, whatever that point may be.

    They're real, in use, and for the meme. This specific subgenre of heavy music is very self-aware and at least 30% tongue-in-cheek, while at the same time being serious. It's a lot more fun and a lot sillier than it appears from the outside, I promise.

    It's sort of like that discourse that happened awhile ago about the difference between "camp" and "tacky"; this stuff is strongly camp, just its own kind of camp.
