Very exciting liveset here, Legion of Two recorded at SSTN7 on 20 Dec. After releasing one of the albums of the year (‘Riffs’ on Planet Mu) we were extremely excited to hear what they had in store live and they did not disappoint. Their sound is an immense wall of sound with grinding rhythms & dense textures that are built for live performance. It inhabits a dark world somewhere between industrial techno and noise-rock with all the visceral live impact that you expect from the superbly executed combination of live electronics and drums. We strongly advise you to check them out live but in the meantime, listen to this set and turn it up loud.

Very impressive sound on display with these guys. You can really hear the liveness of the drums and percussion.
