Legion Of Doom Metal/Doom Supergroup solidify line up and announce first festival dates

Official press release:

Have you ever wanted to hear all the heavy in one place? From its origins onward?

After the untimely passing of Eric Wagner (Trouble, The Skull), one of doom metal's most notable and esteemed singers and songwriters, The Skull bassist and bandleader, Ron Holzner, contemplated long and hard on whether it would be possible to carry on. Nine months and a lot of soul searching later, an idea was born.

Holzner recalls:

I decided I want to honor the memory of Eric by playing songs that he crafted. I want his spirit to become eternal through his words and melody. And I also want to play songs from the catalogs of everyone involved.

Alongside guitarist Lothar Keller (The Skull, Sacred Dawn) and drummer Henry Vasquez (The Skull, Saint Vitus, Blood Of The Sun), Holzner decided to reach out to his longtime comrade, vocalist Karl Agell (Corrosion Of Conformity, Blind, Leadfoot, Lie Heavy) as well as vocalist Scott Reagers (Saint Vitus) and riff master general, guitarist Victor Griffin (Death Row, Pentagram, Place Of Skulls). And so Legion Of Doom has come to exist with an all-star lineup of doom's most prestigious figureheads, here to share their ultimate heavy truth, taking the genre from what is known into uncharted territories.

Legion Of Doom will make its debut appearance at Legions Of Metal Fest in Chicago this June before heading overseas for a performance at Hellfest in France with more live dates to be announced in the weeks to come.
