Legacy, although good, are the very definition of a generic metal-core band. They have the pig squeals, the deep growls, and the catchy pop-punk melodys. This band is a fairly new band, who has been around since 2010 coming out of Toledo, OH. This is the bands debut full length album and they released it off of inVouge records on March 27th 2012. The album was produced by Landon Tewers of The Plot In You. The members of the band are Gabe Lopez on vocals, Lupe Lopez on guitars and clean vocals, & Marcus Springer on bass. Their general manager is Tyler Smith of The Word Alive. The album has 10 tracks which are 1.Intentions 2.Disbeliefs 3.Blindfolds 4.Illusions 5.Burdens 6.Vices 7.Fears 8.Demons 9.Curses 10.Barriers. Out of all the tracks on the album, I feel the song Vices was hands down the most powerful on so many levels whether it was lyrically, screams, and the amazingly catchy courous. If you would like to get a taste of Legacy, you can listen to the song HERE. After considering all of the things this band has going for it, and seeing that it is only their debut album, which is always more or less an experimental album. I am going to give this album an overall rating of
4.2 Out Of 5 Stars
because of the fact that the lyrics are pheomonal whether most of the album's musical aspects were fairly generic. As for the album art, I found it simple yet intreaging with amazing detail, which I really liked. The musical portion of the album was somewhat repetitive but with a lot of promise and I think that with future releases this band will really stand out of the crowd of the general population of metalcore/post-hardcore. I puchchased the album off of their website HERE, which I recieved an autographed poster. If you really like their music I would like you to go out and buy their music, and help support them. You can also purchase it off of amazon.com by clicking this LINK. I am really proud of these guys and really hope to see more. Thats all right now, so until next time,
