A foggy obscurity comes via Ohio trio Legion who were probably one of a hundred other bands with the same name, and musically they were nothing spectacular meaning that their lifespan was incredibly short. This four-track EP was their only release and boasted rather weak sounding vocals courtesy of Dave Belanger whilst the guitars were pretty watery too although that could have been down to the poor production which made the drums of King Douglass sound as if he was tapping a desk with his fingers. Of course, amidst the flaws there were a few attempts at metal majesty with 'The Weak Must Die' and 'Good-bye' but these are fifteen minutes of your life you won't miss, but again, like so many other records, the lukewarm 'Legion of Death' deserves its exposure to the light after being in the basement for so long.
5.5/10
