Band are called 7th Legion, the album is called Strength & Honour, there is a Roman helm on the front cover and they are from Finland.

What genre would you have taken that for?

Haha, Strength & Honour is the name of a Satanic Warmaster album, so I'd think it's kind of NSBM, lolz.

the font used was not very BM, that should have kept you from buying it... :roll:

I would have thought it was some Motörhead rip-off.. is it good btw ?

I think its a demo. 7 songs, 17 minutes long.

And bleh, there are some thrashy moments on it that are ok, but on the whole, its uninteresting. They have two vocalists, one of whom sucks horribly.

Also, I didn't think it was BM, I thought it would be some generic Power Metal band worth forking out £2 for.

Looks like a hardcore album cover to me.

You can't really see the helm clearly on that image.

I wouldve thought powerr metal, maybe with a bit folk stuff there as well (You know, like music the romans played back in the day?!?!). Or something like Falkenbach.

It looks like a PM cover to me. The logo reminds me of Thy Majestie.

In retrospect, the fonts are not disimilar.

"Strength and Honour" is all very HC as well.

Again, in retrospect.

No wonder they went extinct. (Or most of them, apparently)

indeed, but it could have been BM or PM as well
but there's a lesson to learn : never bought a cd based on the artwork

Well, that to me does not look like a logo for a BM band or any extreme Genre. On the other hand, always give the CD a listen before purchasing it.

i wouldn't be completely surprised if that album had turned out to be BM based on the cover, but it would not have been my first guess.

Yeah.
I bought The Oncoming Storm by Unearth more than a month ago, because I was feeling rather "experimental". Actually, the Unearth album was satisfactory, probably a 4 out of 5. Yet, I begin to feel a little more experimental and spontaneously bought Undoing Ruin by Darkest Hour(not sure why). It turned out to be a mistake, and a complete waste of currency, yet I have to say I still listen to two songs on the album sparingly. Since then, I've just kept listening to a lot of DM.
