Like In Odd Marriage Between Thom Yorke And DJ Tïesto My Name Is Legion Is Neon Coloured Glowstick-Techno Dressed In Dark Melancholic Soundscapes And Melodic Expressive Vocals.

The Mission
While Techno In Its Nature Often Lack Human Presence My Name Is Legion Is On A Mission To Do Exactly The Opposite - To Humanize It. By Letting Lyrics Melody And The Human Voice Become The Driving Force In The Songs My Name Is Legion Aims To Speak To Both Weary Hearts And Dancing Feet. Rasmus’ Addiction To Epic Trance-Anthems Dance Music And Catchy Choruses Is Easily Heard But Underneath The Glittery And Almost Tasteless Surface Lies A Dark And Noisy Past In Shoegaze Indie And Postrock. It Is In Between The Darkness And The Bright Neon-Coloured Light That My Name Is Legion Is Born. The Debut Album Is Right Now In The Making And The First Sounds Are Expected To Be Out In Spring 2011.
