Band Profile: https://www.reverbnation.com/legion fan girl level (1-10): 10 headbang level (1-10): 10 Review: Intro- whether you're 6, 14, 18 or 42, a Jackson guitar fanatic or not- you're more than likely going to like this band. I saw Legion X once at The Masquerade at the "Slaughter Que" and pretty much fell in love after the experience. Let me just back this story up, when we arrived at the Slaughter Que, we were there before the first band even started playing and I noticed there were a lot of fans wearing a Legion X shirt and I thought "wow! Legion X must be well known" so anyway, I enjoyed my night but then Legion X played and that's when the inner fan girl came out! The next day, I ran over to my computer and looked these guys up! Music- The music was great and enjoyable for all generations. I bring my old farts (parents) to shows they are also metalheads, and they LOVED Legion X! Normally my favorite bands are their least favorite bands and vise versa but in this situation we both had nothing negative to say. During this set they did a few covers, one being S epultura and usually I don't like covers I go for originality but I feel like the show wouldn't have been as good if they didn't cover the song I was pleased and blown away! outro- I would definitely see these guys again, I do recommend them to anyone, they are really sweet they know what they are doing and I'm sure if you don't like it they don't care because you still have heard of "Legion X" just by reading this. I'll provide upcoming shows that they will play in on my websites calendar or on my fan page on facebook! If you love Legion X or this review please like and/or comment! :) also, don't be shy to check out their facebook, music and so on!! STAY HEAVY \m/ | Performance- Although Slaughter Que was the first time I've ever seen them, I give it a 10! I can't complain at all, lots of sweat, there was interaction between the band and the audience , lots of head banging, the vocalist, Syd, even jumped off and gave my friends and I a huge hug during set. Also I am a HUGE Jackson guitars fans... even more so a Jackson RR V because Randy Rhoads is my idol and guess who went on stage with exactly that.. yes, Chet did. at that point I said "okay.. these guys are going to be great" After talking with a few people who are huge fans of Legion X, I gathered that these guys are great all the time not just at that one show. Their fans are highly supportive and during set, things get wild.. so if you ever want to go to a show that has a band that causes a wild show, look for Legion X....because it's going to happen.. these guys like to party! |
