my experience with them has been somewhat poisoned, much as I love IE, much as I love Schaffer as a musician. Seems like he might have his conviction thrown out pretty soon, but the damage has already been done.
@Metren: I feel similarly. It's a fantastic composition but the last time I listened to it I started hearing the lyrics in a different way. Now there are some Iced Earth songs that just draw me back to Schaffer's ideology and
Varg is and will forever be a major dingus, but yes, his writings and videos were both hilarious simply for the sake of morbid curiosity if nothing else

I just listening this because of SB ... I don't think epic heavy metal belongs here, maybe it must be removed, like I suggested remove epic prefix from HM... cant see epic HM bands anymore, maybe this one, seems refixed again .
I don't hear epic HM, IMO its prog rock, more King Crimson meets Rainbow in demo studio. Prog rock it is, not metal at all , not HM as we know, good album I like it, but bad quality , still ...

I better die, because I never will learn speek english, so I choose dieing
Tell me, how this is BAD quality and NOT heavy metal at all?
Legend is pure heavy metal with epic touches. But remember we're dealing with Bad English here who also claims Kill 'em All isn't thrash metal.
Btw totally no prog rock in this American Legend.

Cool album. Not the most heavy, not the most epic, but it's an example for other bands to follow, and they sure did, and took it further and made it more refined. An interesting listen nevertheless and for sure an important album for development of heavy metal.
