Traditional heavy metal band t-shirt

This is what a business in United Kingdom was looking for in their t-shirt design

Neuronspoiler is a band playing traditional-influenced heavy metal - think Dio, Black Sabbath, Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest etc. However we like to think we've got a few modern elements and we're not just rehashing the 80s.

We're after a tshirt that looks undeniably metal but which avoids all the standard metal cliches, so no swords, skulls, snakes or strippers.
We're looking for something to be our signature t-shirt that can be iconic once we're good and famous - the sort of thing Motorhead, the Ramones and Venom achieved with their classic shirts.

If it might help provide inspiration, have a look around our band websites at http://neuronspoiler.com and www.facebook.com/neuronspoiler. You can listen to our music at both of those too.

For reference, here are a handful of heavy metal t-shirts that I like the feel/impact of:
