He Is Legend Gettin’ Ready to Drop Some Heavy Fruit

by | Jun 17, 2014

We mentioned before about the time we interviewed Maylene and the Sons of Disaster, and how He Is Legend vocalist Schuylar Croom filled in for Dallas Taylor on that tour in 2009. If you’re looking for a family reunion of sorts, you’ll be able to see He Is Legend with Maylene this summer on a lengthy trek across the States. Ya dig?

As you know He Is Legend haven’t put out an album since 2009, and all that’s changing in August when they’re releasing their long-awaited new record Heavy Fruit. A follow-up to 2009’s It Hates You, the album came together slowly after resurrecting from hiatus.

Here’s a new song from the band called “Miserable Company,” and for old times sake, a stream of It Hates You in full.

Heavy Fruit comes out August 19th via Tragic Hero Records.
