Music like The Legends

The Legends are a Swedish pop band, distributed by Lakeshore Records in the US, by Labrador Records in Sweden, and by Little Teddy Recordings in Germany. The Legends were formed in January 2003, and a week later, a gig was booked, supporting The Radio Dept. in Stockholm. As the band basically lacked songs and members, the first two weeks were spent writing songs and gathering friends who could play, or wanted to play, in the band.

According to the band, they play music that can't be placed in a genre, yet they're happy to cite Television Personalities, Comet Gain, Motown, and C-86 as their inspirations. They received acclaim internationally for their debut album Up Against the Legends, released in 2003, and have since then released 4 EPs and 5 additional studio albums.
