The Legends - Up Against the Legends - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Facts and Figures is the sound of complete opposites coming together perfectly. The Legends combine the military precision of Kraftwerk and DAF with soft '60s style pop melodies; a hate of dance floors with dance music and perfectionism with the naive curiosity of a beginner. Over a classic album length of 10 songs and 34 45 minutes The Legends deliver an eclectic, still amazingly kept together piece of art. Sublime! Facts and Figures is Johan Angergård's (Acid House Kings, Club 8, Poprace) 12th album and the 3rd with The Legends. Yet, it still feels as if he's only just begun. The Legends' curiosity and lust is obvious and they've stayed true to their indie ideals. Facts and Figures is very playful. The Legends experiment with brand new sounds and combine them with every brilliant pop tune they've ever heard and every band they've ever listened to. Eclectic and truly amazing! The first 1000 copies of Facts and Figures come with a bonus tour documentary DVD. It's supposed to work as a warning for those who plan on starting a band.

The Legends - Public Radio [COMPACT DISCS] date 09/14/2005

After two years of absence The Legends return with the noisiest pop single to ever come out of Sweden. Seconds away balances perfectly between the unbearable & pure loveliness. I need noise now so this new single sounds like someone drilling a whole in your head. In a pleasant way that is. It's called Seconds away & is about the wonders of tryptizol. The B-side Over & over is actually one of those sad love songs I had promised myself never to write again. But it was out of my.
