The Legends, the newest pop sensation out of Sweden, write modern pop songs with hints of everything retro on the band's debut album, Up Against the Legends. Their stunning debut will appeal to those who love infectious, offbeat pop hooks in the vain of The Jesus and Mary Chain, mixed with an ample dose of Morrissey-esque vocals. Made up of nine handclapping, guitar clattering, singing band members who had little or no experience before joining the band, the band now rocks out to their own pop beats on TV and radio all over Sweden. Splendid E-Zine said, "The Legends don't merely rehash rock's past or strain their tunes through a lo-fi filter: they embrace the past as it writes its way into the future, tossing in a variety of musical elements from throughout musical history."
