LEGION OF THE DAMNED
To release new album The Poison Chalice on May 26
First single and brutal video “Beheading of the Godhead” unleashed
The LEGION slays again! Dutch thrash veterans LEGION OF THE DAMNED have once again entered into an alliance with the devouring depths of black and death metal and unleash another angry beast, The Poison Chalice, on May 26, 2023 via Napalm Records. The shredding monster delivers the most delicious pitch-black brew and tortures dark souls into demonic underworlds!
Today, LEGION OF THE DAMNED unleashed the first single and video “Beheading of the Godhead”. The intense and impressive official music video was crafted by renowned video producing company Grupa 13 and stands out as one of the best videos in their career. The song takes the listener directly into the mind of a demonic magician that collects mankind’s deepest fears and placed itself on the same sphere as God.
