To celebrate He Is Legend's return, we caught up with vocalist Schuylar Croom and drummer Jesse Shelley for an epic chat about their new album, touring Australia, and more.
For over a decade now, Southern metal/hard rock outfit He Is Legend have been one of the most underrated acts in the alternative underground. Across five, stellar full-length albums – which trace a path from the group's early beginnings as purveyors of raucous metalcore-meets-post-hardcore, to the country-fried, blues/rock/metal chimera you'll find today – the North Carolina four-piece have consistently delivered bangin' riffs and soaring melodies, while continuing to defy genre conventions with their bold, risk-taking swagger. When Killyourstereo.com recently spoke with vocalist and Southern gentlemen Schuylar Croom from a green room in central Scotland, we managed to deliberate on all manner of subjects, including the release of their highly anticipated, fifth studio record, 'few,' touring across the European continent, letting their influences shine, 19th-century French poetry, and how to stay up on the latest in hip-hop culture.
Something, something 'chosen few'…
The band have pulled the plug on their next five scheduled gigs
They're back - and better than ever!
