Bio:

Everything started sometimes in the year 2010. Heiko and Siggi, still known from the good old metal times of the 80s and 90s and bands just as Abraxas or Stormwitch, met with Dirk, active musician at Coronatus, and played some lose sessions. During the first time, they covered songs from well known metal bands, but very soon the idea of a new band came up. On the search for an extraordinary voice, the three found Selin, an excellent skilled and talented musician, on a local musician platform, contacted him, invited him, did a first session, and We are Legend was born. This was early 2011. The first songs developed throughout these months, while the four learned to know each others skills better, and end of 2011, the band was ready to enter the studio for the first EP, which was published early 2012, with the songs "Enemy within", "This holy dark", "God is dreaming", and "In pale moonlight". During this time, the song structure developed to a prog, power and melodic, with late romantic and virtuos piano melodies, which adds an incredible depth and atmosphere to the songs. The reviews to the 4-track EP were incredible, and very soon, some record labels offered deals to the Five. Pushed by this successful feedback, the brotherhood went to the studio again, to record their frist long player album. Release is expected to be mid 2013.

Album:

What do you get when you bring together members of THUNDERBOLD, CORONATUS, ABRAXAS, and STORMWITCH? You get the highly impressive ensemble WE ARE LEGEND.Expanding on their previous release; a four tracked self-titled EP, WE ARE LEGEND has returned with a full length album dubbed Rise of the Legend. You might be wondering, what do these guys sound like? With roots firmly planted in a foundation of heavy, progressive and power metal, this German based group adds some unexpected touches to forge their own sound. Most notably is the addition of melodic piano, which in tracks such as “Enemy Within” and “God is Dreaming” is quite subtle. In contrast, the piano in “This Holy Dark” is unmistakable and adds a unique atmosphere.Songs are nicely varied and broken down a bit more; the vocals and instruments are all nicely diverse as well. Taking the vocal front, Selin Schönbeck (ex-THUNDERBOLD) has a strong set of pipes, and if that wasn’t enough to bring to the table, he’s also the pianist. Dueling guitars by Dirk Baur (CORONATUS) and Siggi Maier (ex-ABRAXUS, ex-STORMWITCH) are powerful, riffs are heavy and tight and the two complement each other well. Bass is by Dominik Burgdörfer, he and Heiko Burst (ex-ABRAXUS) on drums can’t be ignored, both driving catchy rhythms with equal ferocity.Tracks you just might find on repeat; “Hungry Mirrors” with its beautiful piano intro, strong drums and guitars, and crunchy guitar solo. “This Holy Dark” became an instant favorite with its catchiness, the unexpected timing changes that flowed seamlessly and soaring vocals. The tough as nails anthem “Enemy Within” ranked high on my list, as well as the catchy “God is Dreaming” for its heavy Rock groove. “Out!” was geared down a bit, showcasing the drums some before the piano kicked in and it really took off. Then rounding the album off nicely was a nice surprise at the end with “March of the Living”.Fans of Progressive/ Power Metal that enjoy acts such as CIRCUS MAXIMUS and KAMELOT might want to give these guys a listen. “Rise Of The Legend” is quite well done and highly recommended.
