The Legion of Doom

Posted by firestormx on April 18, 2006, 12:34 p.m.

k, so aparently I need to write a new entry…So that's what this is.

Dissapointed that you can see how many comments this entry has, without even having to scroll? Yeah, you probably are.

I just wanted to post this, 'cause I'm currently hosting <a href="http://www.the-legion-of-doom.com/" target="_blank" />The Legion of Doom</a>'s album, <i> Incorporated</i>.

They're encouraging people to share their music (even though doing so is still illigal, since they're mashups of other artists…Although I can't really get in trouble for it, since it's not the actual artist's creation, but rather a variation of their creation, distributed by TLOD, and…Yeah, whatever)

<a href="http://www.the-legion-of-doom.com/?p=10" target="_blank">More information</a>

Who are TLOD? Well, they're two guys who "mash together" awesome songs, to create another awesome song. I'm no good at placing bands in genres, but I've broken down the songs they use into your basic genres:

"Really emo" (Taking Back Sunday, Dashboard Confessional)

"Rock" (Thrice)

"Heavy emo" (Underoath)

"Hardcore" (Norma Jean)

"Metal[core]" (From Autumn to Ashes, Every Time I Die)

"Rap" (Sage Francis)

It's mostly emo bands, but most of the emo bands they use at least having screaming. =P

I was amazed at the diversity of the music they were able to take from, and always manage to "mash it together", and always have it sound like their "style".

Anyway, enough talk of them, here's three sample songs (I write what they sound like in quotations, bcause because the sound is only relative to the rest of the album):

<a href="http://www.64digits.com/download.php?name=10_-_The_Legion_of_Doom_-_Ebola_in_Memphis_Every_Time_I_Die_vs._Norma_Jean_feat._KRS_ONE_.mp3&id=4088" target="_blank">The Legion of Doom - Ebola in Memphis (Every Time I Die vs. Norma Jean) (feat. KRS ONE)</a> ("Heavy")

<a href="http://www.64digits.com/download.php?name=14_-_The_Legion_of_Doom_-_Hands_Down_Gandhi_Dashboard_Confessional_vs._Sage_Francis_.mp3&id=4092">The Legion of Doom - Hands Down Gandhi (Dashboard Confessional vs. Sage Francis)</a> ("Rap")

If you like them, then here's the .rar of the album:

If you don't have a archiver that can read .rars, I uploaded it as a .zip for you losers:

Here's the tracklisting incase you want to see what bands they used before downloading (the name of the song is a hint as to what songs they mashed):

01 - <b>I Know What You Buried Last Summer</b> (Taking Back Sunday vs. Senses Fail)

02 - <b>Dottie in a Car Crash</b> (The Get Up Kids vs. Thursday)

03 - <b>The Quiet Screaming</b> (Dashboard Confessional vs. Brand New)

04 - <b>Dangerous Business Since 1979</b> (Mewithoutyou vs. Underoath)

05 - <b>Stupid Kill</b> (Thrice vs. Alkaline Trio)

06 - <b>Destroy All Vampires</b> (My Chemical Romance vs. Static Lullaby) (feat. Triune)

07 - <b>At Your Funeral for A Friend</b> (Saves the Day vs. Funeral for A Friend)

08 - <b>Lolita's Medicine</b> (From Autumn to Ashes vs. Dead Poetic)

09 - <b>Icarus Underwater</b> (Armor for Sleep vs. Hopesfall) (feat. Planet Asia)

10 - <b>Ebola in Memphis</b> (Every Time I Die vs. Norma Jean) (feat. KRS ONE)

11 - <b>Devil In a Blue Dress</b> (Coheed and Cambria vs. Senses Fail)

12 - <b>A Threnody for a Grand</b> (Atreyu vs. It Dies Today)

13 - <b>My Holiday Burn</b> (The Get Up Kids vs. Matchbook Romance)

14 - <b>Hands Down Gandhi</b> (Dashboard Confessional vs. Sage Francis)

As you can see, there's a lot of different artists in there. I was amazed by the differnce in bands they used. Like, I've never met anyone other than me who likes Every Time I Die, Sage Francis, Armor for Sleep, and A Static Lullaby.

Like, most people who listen to Autumn to Ashes would think that Dashboard Confessional is too light…Or someone who listens to My Chemical Romance, would probably find Sage Francis annoying. (Meanwhile everyone else thinks MCR fans are annoying. XD)

I'm sure there's lots of people out there who like all this music as well, I mean they're all emo-oriented bands, and pretty much all of them have been on tour with a least one of the other bands, but I'm just saying I've never met any of those poeple. =P

Also, I found out about these guys from the Underworld Evolution soundtrack, and apparently that's where a lot of other people found out about them too. They've got awesome songs on that album as well, but I can't upload that, but I do recomend checking that OST out, 'cause, you know, it's awesome and stuff. (Minus a couple songs…Slipknot in particular…I so wish the members of Slipknot would die)

They also did a song for the Saw II soundtrack, which, "for a limited time" can be downloaded from their website's <a href="http://www.the-legion-of-doom.com/?page_id=5" target="_blank">download</a> page. It too, kicks ass.

Legion of Doom… There's a band called that, but it doesn't seem the same as this one, although it could be.

firestormx 17 years, 11 months ago

Yeah, these guys are called The Legion of Doom, the metal band is just Legion of Doom.

I think the metal band is only Legion of Doom, I don't know…

Either way, I don't particularly like the metal Legion of Doom.
