April 5, 2009, 15 years ago
Swedish black metallers THE LEGION have uploaded a third taster from their soon-to-be-released album A Bliss To Suffer - click here to hear 'Blood, Be Gone'. About the song the band comments: "Blood, Be Gone!' was one of the first songs to be written for this album. In its original shape it comes with a haunting intro sequence, which we scrapped for this MySpace edit."
Vocalist Martinsson comments on the lyrical content:
“Ever been so preposterously hung over you start imagining what pleasures the resolve of your human body must mean? In part put to paper while sitting through the night bedside a literally dying woman at a home for old people, these lines are a contemplation of the void beyond and within, drawing on the intoxicating experience of verging between sleep and wake and not realizing exactly what is what. As the music blasts away in a rather furious tempo, this piece of lyrics remains one of least aggressive of the album, and is a call for a situation which doesn’t quite so closely resemble hell.”A Bliss To Suffer is due out through Listenable Records on April 27th.
The tracklisting: 'Shining Redemption', 'Call Of The Nameless Black', 'A Toil Beneath The Skin', 'Blood, Be Gone!', 'A Curse For The Dead', 'The Luring Depths', 'The Inimical', 'Man-Beast', 'The Reaping Of Flesh And Blood'.
