Doom Supergroup LEGIONS OF DOOM, Featuring Former TROUBLE And C.O.C. Members, To Release 'Low N Slow In The UK' Live Album

Scheduled for release in 2027, metal veterans LEGIONS OF DOOM are set to capture their formidable live presence with a new album, recorded earlier this year at KK's Steel Mill in Wolverhampton during the band's sold-out U.K./Ireland tour alongside CROWBAR and SILVERBURN.

"Legions Of Doom Live: Low N Slow In The UK" will be released in March 2027 on Tee Pee Records, celebrating the band's own material, the legacy of THE SKULL and the musical spirit of the late TROUBLE and THE SKULL frontman Eric Wagner.

Born out of THE SKULL and the desire to carry forward the music of its much-loved originator, LEGIONS OF DOOM have established an identity of their own. Featuring musicians with histories deeply embedded in doom metal, the band brings together former and current members of TROUBLE, THE SKULL, SAINT VITUS, PENTAGRAM, LEADFOOT and CORROSION OF CONFORMITY.

The band's story began with a project intended to continue THE SKULL's musical journey. Following Wagner's passing in 2021, bassist Ron Holzner and guitarist Lothar Keller discovered material on his computer labelled "New Skull Record", including lyrics and unfinished ideas for the band's third album. With the blessing of Wagner's family, the pair completed the material and assembled the lineup that became LEGIONS OF DOOM.

Their 2024 debut, "The Skull 3" (also released on Tee Pee Records),featured recorded vocals from Wagner himself on "Heaven". With vocal duties shared by Karl Agell and original SAINT VITUS frontman Scott Reagers, the album celebrated Wagner's creative legacy while beginning a new chapter for the musicians involved.

Now, LEGIONS OF DOOM are preparing to document that journey live. Due for release in late March 2027, "Legions Of Doom Live: Low N Slow In The UK" was recorded at KK's Steel Mill in Wolverhampton, the renowned venue owned and operated by former JUDAS PRIEST guitarist K.K. Downing. Capturing a sold-out performance, the album combines LEGIONS OF DOOM material with select THE SKULL favorites and a few surprises.

Among the highlights is CORROSION OF CONFORMITY's "Dance Of The Dead", revisiting Agell's time fronting the band during the "Blind" era. The recording features the touring lineup of vocalist Karl Agell, bassist Ron Holzner, guitarists Lothar Keller and Scott Little and drummer Chad Walls.

For Holzner and Keller, the release fulfils an ambition that began during their time with THE SKULL, when a live album featuring Eric Wagner was already being discussed.

Speaking from the mixing studio, Holzner explains: "We always wanted to do a live record with THE SKULL. We were planning on it before the passing of Eric Wagner. So, this record means a lot to us… It's LEGIONS in fine form with a bit of THE SKULL thrown in."

Agell adds: "Earlier this year, LEGIONS OF DOOM had the great pleasure of touring with our dear old friends CROWBAR, in Ireland and the UK. The pinnacle was not only getting to play the legendary KK's Steel Mill in Wolverhampton but being able to record a killer in front of a packed house. Thank you to the amazing crowd that made this a night to remember!"

With original material, THE SKULL classics and a nod to Agell's CORROSION OF CONFORMITY history, "Legions Of Doom Live: Low N Slow In The UK" promises to document a band celebrating its past while forging its own future and is scheduled for release in late March 2027 via Tee Pee Records. The exact release date, full track list and further details will be announced soon.
