The composition of “Meridies” is completed and the hard work of the band is at last carried out in a recording studio. The album, professionally recorded, is the result of the continuous musical research of Legion of Darkness, that has been joining the sounds of Black Metal and acoustic melodies, clean vocals and classical instruments as violin, cello and flute with contribution of a lot of guests. The full length is composed of five tracks (approximately length 50 minutes) of which only three are inserted in the promo. As for the last track, entitled “Ithaca”, a videoclip has been realized (included in the promo in multimedia format), in order to show through images the mediterranean feeling that the band would communicate. Legion of Darkness are looking for a label to release and promote the new full-legth.


This is the videoclip of Ithaca, last song of "Meridies"

:: Biography ::

2001 - 2003
The Legion of Darkness was founded by Lord Inferos and Flagellum in the year 2001.In 2002 the due recorded their first demo “Hymns to Blasphemy”, few copies were distribuited in local environment. The four songs of the demo played sounds with an attitude typicaly 90s. The work composed by the L.o.D. after completing “Hymns to Blasphemy” marked a radical change in style; the tracks were based towards Black Pagan Metal influenced by the old polish scene, the lyrics became more thoughtfull and introspective.These suggestions became concrete in its name-sake demo of april 2003, and was accepted with great enthusiasm in the national underground environment. After this last outing the band would be represented on different underground compilations with their very own brands.
2004 - 2005
Immediately after the realization of their second demo, the band started working on pices which now is composed in the first album entitled “Cantus”. The album came out at the end of 2004 as promo destinated to the usual workers, and was then introduced professionally in the autumn of 2005 by italian company The Oath Records. “Cantus” has received many positive acclaims and often indicated as one of the best pagan black metal production ever made in Italy.In the last months of 2005 their came an important change in the L.o.D. band: to the old lineup was added Adranor on the bass and keyboards (already in Heruka and Throne of Molok).
2006 - 2007
Years 2006 and 2007 bring to L.o.D. some problems that slow down the band, but its members don’t get discouraged. In this while the band solves all complications and turns back to work for the second album.
-----------------------------------------------------
::: Legion of Darkness Cantus :::

Suddenly after the realization of the second demo, we have started to work on the songs that now compose the promo 2004, that is presented here, titled "Cantus"; considered the sound homogeneity and the lenght, this cd could be judged as a full-lenght album. The composition 's phase of the new songs has tied the band for almost an year. every song has received an attention and an almost maniacal care, because, in our opinion, if you want to explain yourself better, you need to take care to succeed in "trapping" your essence in the succession of the notes, and sure it is not a simple work. The sound evolution has brought new elements in our music; now are frequent the acoustic parts, passages touched by epic and visionarie wind, the use of dreamy and, at the same time, sharp melodies. Besides we wanted to insert various part of clean vocals and the sound of a violin, and sometimes appears also a keyboard to underline some moments. In our point of view, the lyrics are perfectly adapted to what is musically proposed; nearby the numerous pagan - oneiric digressions with almost estatic slants ( in the first four tracks ), came up beside more individual temathics, tied to spirit's pain and to death ( the fifth track ), but , this time, all is conceived through a bigger awareness of the vibrations that can be tasted with the right elevation. We could say that, in this work , we have tried to analyze and to conjugate the man's desire of trascendence, in solar and pagan sense, with more earthly and moon feelings that are inevitably placed in front of our path. We hope you'll enjoy the result. Actually we are searching for a deal.
- Guests in "Cantus"-
Claudio Diprima, Giuseppe Bondi, Sergio Zanforlin, Mariella Mannino.
