Display of Decayâs âLegion of Doomâ is a death metal look at the menacing death knights found in World Of Warcraft. Step into the shadows of musical intensity and bask in bloody riffs, frosty bass lines, and unholy vocals. âLegion of Doomâ comes off the bandâs sixth album âVitriolâ, which is packed full of technical and dark artistry. The band details the writing process:
âMusically, this song was rewritten a number of times. I can remember a few minutes before a writing session, Brandon was on his way over and I was sitting there strumming along to warm up when I plucked the notes that would eventually become the chorus, and I thought to myself ââdid I just write the best riff ever?!â Of course, I didnât, but itâs a pretty damn great riff. This song is definitely more âprogressiveâ than the other ones perhaps, I feel thereâs a definite nod to âDeathâ in this one, but nonetheless, itâs about slaying monsters in Azeroth. FOR THE HORDE.â
Since 2007, Display of Decay has been writing death metal songs about serial killers, school shootings, and otherwise brutal methods of dying. Deep down though, theyâre just a bunch of nerds who love playing heavy music and this song really captures that. There are other songs on the album that also pay homage to nerdy endeavors such as Mass Effect and Diablo while being wrapped up in groovy guitar work and ever-increasing technicality that shows how far the band has come over the years.
Get ready to experience the visceral and unapologetic realm of death metal and death knights with âLegion of Doomâ recommended for fans of Immolation, Pantera, and Morbid Angel.
