Legion will release their debut album, entitled Woke, on July 30th via eOne / Good Fight Music. Legion’s forthcoming debut delivers upon the promise put down by their devastating EPs.

Woke tracklisting:

'The Fear'

'And Then, The Devil Said'

'Righteous Dictation'

'He Became Death'

'Priest'

'Disclosure Of Sin'

'Kneel Before Order'

'Perverse Icon'

'B.R.F.'

'The Roach'

The album's first single, 'He Became Death', is now available digitally via iTunes.

'He Became Death' lyric video:

Columbus, Ohio has produced many celebrated “scene” bands, but Legion actively chose another route. They didn’t base their career plans on the accumulation of Internet hype nor on cookie-cutter music designed to cater to a specific crowd. They went against the grain, on the path of resistance, decidedly choosing hard work and originality.

No choreographed stage moves. Legion isn’t following the scene blueprint. Legion is all about a genuine connection with their fans through authentic expression. Ultimately, Legion looks to create music that inspires listeners to be themselves. They are believers in the power of creativity and artistic achievement.

One thing seems assured: Legion will make a mark on the heavy music scene.

Legion is:

Michael Guilford (Vocals)

Chris Dragics (Guitar)

Alex Heiberger (Guitar)

Mason Prince (Bass)

Jake Rodriguez (Drums)
