THE LEGION: New Album Title, Release Date Revealed

February 23, 2009

Swedish black/death metallers THE LEGION, who feature in their ranks former MARDUK drummer Emil Dragutinovic, have issued the following update:

"We are proud to announce the release of our third album, 'A Bliss to Suffer', through Listenable Records on April 27. Entirely produced by us band members ourselves at Art Decay Studio during a series of sessions in 2007 and 2008, this onslaught displays the relentless speed and severe brutality of previous efforts blended together with strangely atmospheric and epic elements, taking our lethal concoctions to new heights. We wouldn't brag without a good reason — this thing will kill you.

"In other news, vocalist [Lars] Martinsson is back as a permanent member after commitments elsewhere, and celebrates the return with a never-ending row of ghastly shrieks all through the album.

"Last but not least, there is now an official THE LEGIONMySpace site up and running. This is the only MySpace channel with 100% valid and verified information straight from the band. Excerpts from 'A Bliss to Suffer' will be available for streaming listening as soon as possible."

THE LEGION released its sophomore album, "Revocation", in February 2006 via Listenable Records.
