"You have such culture here
it is like Clapton meets Yngwie mixed in with Yes and Jazz bassist
Stanley Clark. I am not a instrumental fan but this is one of the best I
heard. Song nine My last sunrise is a killer tune. I can see more coming
from this band in the future."

Legacy CD review by metallian.com Legacy Review by
metalcorefanzine.com Melodic rock with a touch of metal thrown in.
There aren't many new bands playing this style and I grew up a fan
of rock n roll as well as underground metal so I
am totally into what these guys are all about.
11 bone crunching rock tunes. Think bands like Coney Hatch, Night Ranger,
etc. Great vocals are just plain kick ass tunes make this a rock
lovers delight. Marten Andersson/Legacy Metal Express

Legacy CD review by
maelstrom.nu Legacy's self titled album is filled with
guitarist's Hansson heavy lead guitar and cool riffs, especially on
the outro to "Leave it Alone."
Roseberry's deep voice is a perfect contrast to
the soaring solos. Think Skid Row at around the time of Slave to
the Grind and that's where Legacy lies. If you
liked that sound then you'll love this band.
Read Review> Metal Express
Legacy CD Review Legacy isn’t your average hard rock band. Although the
musicianship on this CD is potent and skilled, the vocalist Chris
Roseberry is the bands most lethal instrument. He has tremendous range, a
very bluesy voice, and the ability to throw real anger and pain into his
delivery. Legacy is just a damn good band.

a nice range. The album overall is very

nice ballads on it. Definitely a very cool

Legacy in OUI Magazine On the rise to fame and fortune,
this 4-piece quartet, from Hollywood California, holds a lot of talent.
Releasing their self-titled debut album, LEGACY, the band is on the
rise. From start to finish this CD holds some of the best hard rock that
I have heard in years. The razor sharp riffs and thumping bass lines is
guaranteed to satisfy any metal-head. The continual airplay, on major
radio stations, has insured the band an ever-growing fan base. The band
is made up of Marten Andersson (Lizzy Borden) on bass, Jonas Hansson
(Silver Mountain, Alcatraz) on guitar, Stephen Emig on drums and Chris
Roseberry vocals. Marten lets us know how they got through the recording
of this album! "We are all big fans of porn, when we recorded the album
we had porn on the whole time, a habit I picked up with my years wit
Lizzy Borden".

Legacy Review on
KNAC.COM The songs are
carefully crafted (a good blend of melody,musicianship, songwriting
and go for the throat attitude) and well executed. The album starts
off with a 1-2-3 punch of great rockers. Album mixes original ideas
with odes to Metallica, Yngwie, etc. Click

Legacy
on WCRC Legacy
is a new unsigned band we have been playing here on our station WCRC
104 FM. These guys rock from the opening track Trouble Shooter to
the closer of "Thank You" this CD rocks. Its like
Malmsteen meets Krokus meets nothing you ever heard before I high
octane metal fest "Troubleshooter" the rocking balls to wall
track gets lots of feedback but the most request come in for track #4
"Autumn Rising" a very Dio sounding ballad in the beginning
then opens up into a rockin climax. I give this on a scale of
one to ten (ten being the best) a easy 9 and the only reason i
give it a nine is i never give a ten only twice in my radio career
listen to Legacy on "The Witching Hour" every Saturday night
on WCRC 104 FM in New Hampshire
They
(Legacy) sound very experienced and professional. The music is
powerful and very melodic US-Metal. The best heavy tracks are
"Tool" or "Underdog". The instrumental song
"2.4.1"
Heavy
sound with a well placed guitar, creative riffs and solos
mingled on a competent and vigorous rhythm cousin, with a able singer
and a interesting gamma of compositions. -
Complete Review
This album features interesting hard/heavy
songs with good technical sections and shredding neoclassical soloing.
Very good debut album. -

Legacy on
CBC Radio Ottawa I
am very impressed by the skill level of the players. I think this was
best displayed when I got to track 10 (Astral Sundown). I also really
enjoyed track 4 - Autumn Rising, and track 8 - Can't Remember Love.
The quality of the recording was very strong, and as mentioned, the
playing is well above par." Q & A WITH MARTEN ANDERSON - Marten
