About Me

Legendary Kingdoms is more than just a webzine! It is also a music lovers resource dedicated to classic hard rock and the heavy metal genres of thrash, speed, melodic, progressive, power and traditional metal thunder with a focus on the local music scene. There are hundreds of links to everything metal and rock and hundreds more on the way. News, views, reviews and even a Metalhead Zoo! Submissions are welcome, though no guarantee’s are made to their use, publication or safety. Legendary Kingdoms does not pay for submissions. See blog for history of Legendary Kingdoms. Currently LK is in the process of being revamped and remodeled so not all pages are up at the moment.If you are in the southern to central MN area and want to receive a free monthly Upcoming Show List of bands playing live original music, just add Legendary Kingdoms as a friend. LK is completely independent so all promoters shows will be listed unless they fall outside the musical genres LK covers or if the band(s) in question really really suck. More often than not you will find plenty of shows listed that normally fall outside our regular coverage. Benefits and charities are listed as well.Cover bands are not covered because there are just too many of them to keep track of and because they generally play in the same places over and over again so even if you miss your favorite one you will easily get to see them again soon enough. Though if someone wanted to regularly compile a list of local cover bands shows LK would more than likely be willing to publish it.Of course, Legendary Kingdoms is also interested in linking up with other metal 'zines, radio and fans world wide.

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 5/3/2008
Band Website: http://www.legendarykingdoms.net
Band Members: Ace Herostratus Warloch - Does mostly everything: writes, captures images with a perfectly legal soul-stealer, philosophizes (then wonders where these philosophications really came from), designs websites (using only a chisel and a three pound hammer), and plays bass for Herostratus. However, in unfortunate situations that requires lots of power and/or immortal understanding, the mighty Valgorth is called upon at: www.hammerblaze.com
Influences: Legendary Kingdoms founder Ace Herostratus Warloch has been influenced by exactly too many heavy metal albums, too many comic books and way too much philosophy and metaphysical experience which you can read about at http://acewarloch.blogspot.com. Sorry, maybe you were expecting to read: MANOWAR.
Sounds Like: Hit the play button on the MySpace player and listen to "Pyromantic Pleasures" from the forthcoming Herostratus 'Pyrocide' demo to find out. More Herostratus songs will be posted soon. Soon means probably in a few weeks.
Record Label: Other way around. We label records. Get it?
Type of Label: Major

Hypersonic Sound

I watched this 14mn video at TED.com and realized this almost secretive technology could have a dramatic impact in certain areas of the music industry. Good or bad? You decide.
