<p>The final episode of season 2 for The Soundcheck's podcast <em>Behind The Soundcheck</em> is proof that sometimes in life it’s worth shooting your shot. For Schuylar Croom, vocalist and bewitching frontman for North Carolina rockers He Is Legend, a timely shot occurred when he tweeted his way onto the last ever Soundwave here in Australia in 2015, resulting in him rubbing shoulders with and featured alongside Faith No More, Soundgarden and an insane array of others many years ago. For <em>Behind The Soundcheck </em>host Tiana Speter, she shot her shot reaching out to Schuylar himself out of the blue through a fortuitous series of events to ask him to come on this very podcast - and, as this episode proves, it paid off. But there’s more than just blind luck and timely tweets to the He Is Legend success story; a band who can trace their origins back to high school in the 90s to becoming one of the most beloved bands in the heavier realms, there is undeniably no one quite like He Is Legend, from their bewitching brand of melodics to their sonic tenacity amongst raw and viscously grittier textures. </p><p>Like a possessed nursery rhyme that swaggers, dazzles and blisters with jaw-dropping dexterity, one visit with He Is Legend is all it takes to fall head over heels into the rabbit hole with one of the undeniable modern greats - and, because 2022 is the gift that keeps on giving, the band are currently now armed and ready to release a seventh studio album, with <em>Endless Hallway </em>officially due out this Friday the 11th of November. </p><p><br></p><p>Initially releasing two tantalising singles in the form of <em>LIFELESS LEMONADE </em>and <em>THE PROWLER</em>, it’s clear that 2022 is He Is Legend at their boldest and most bodacious yet, which is genuinely saying something after the ballistic success of their 2019 album <em>White Bat</em> and previous releases. In true He Is Legend Fashion, leveling up the ferocity with each new release, <em>Endless Hallway</em> is set to be a boundless and gripping journey through glamorously dirty rock amongst many other genre flavours, and while speaking to Schuylar just before the band dropped another pair of singles, <em>SOUR</em> and <em>HONEY FROM THE HIVE</em>, it’s clear that the true secrets behind the band’s versatility and otherworldly abilities stem from a firm DIY ethic, infectious passion and a genuine humility surrounding their inescapable popularity. Chatting everything from tweeting his way to Australia, to conjuring the new album amongst global and personal hurdles, memorable album artwork and matchbooks - join host Tiana Speter with the incomparable Schuylar Croom from He Is Legend for this very special episode. </p><p><br></p><p>MORE HE IS LEGEND INFO: https://www.facebook.com/HeIsLegendNC/</p><p>MORE THE SOUNDCHECK INFO: https://www.thesoundcheck.org/</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
