A Great Classic Death Metal Album not for Everyone

"Deicide is world class DEATH METAL . It does not matter if you like them or hate them. The ever shifting drums of Steve and extreme guitar riffing by the Hoffman brothers is considered by credible music critics as an essential example of great death metal music. The band actually helped define the early 90's death metal movement with complicated, ultra heavy music and low growling vocals of Glen Benton. Although many say that Trifixion is the favorite cut in this album, the band's compositions and performance in this album is solid and serious throughout. All songs are considered by many as classic. Even though Glen Benton hated and never accepted the Death metal music categorization, they are one of the best bands that came to existence. Although such early-'80s metal bands like Venom and the Possessed helped invent this radically heavy sound, Deicide continue to expand upon death metal's groundwork. Admittedly, Deicide's music and heavily Satanic lyrics aren't for everyone. But when everything is said and done, when gimmicks are long dead .Deicide and this album Legion will remain a death metal classic."

"Fix a couple cups of hot cocoa, invite that "special someone" over, and cuddle up to the smooth, soulful stylings of Glen Benton and crew. Deicide's sophomore effort, "Legion", is the perfect remedy for any child with a little too much church in his life, as well as a logical soundtrack for nursing homes chock full of elderlies. All this, and you still get to bask in the honor of defiling the name of Jesus Christ! It's blasphemy at its finest, and it's fun for the whole family. Shemhamphorasch..."
