Legionnaire

There is no smiling in heavy metal :)

About Me

Legionnaire conquers all that stands in its way with skillful execution as beautiful as it is brutal. The classically-influenced melody and counterpoint that lie beneath their contemporary brand of metal, along with frontman Ron Crooks’ accessible vocal style, allow the band to cross-boundaries and act as a gateway-drug for the genre. Serious metal fans can gorge on the complex time-signature changes and harmonized riffs seamlessly woven into each song. With epic progressions, passionate vocals, driving beats, and bone-crushing breakdowns, Legionnaire’s sound has been compared to that of Killswitch Engage, Atreyu, and It Dies Today.

Hailing from NYC, Legionnaire has become a staple of the Manhattan metal and hard-rock scene; a favorite among local venues and bookers. The band tirelessly self-promotes—spreading the word with demos, clothing, stickers, promotional parties, and, of course, through good ol’ MySpace. Driven, dedicated, and damn sexy, Legionnaire will go the distance and then 1000 miles further… wait no, too cheesy… Legionnaire will f*@%ing rock you!
