Data Insight

Nothing on this album is written by anyone in the band, which makes it the one release that scores zero on authorship for an honest reason. The credits go to the writers of the originals, from Tommy Niemeyer of The Accused to Buzz Osborne and Dale Crover of the Melvins to Steve Albini's Big Black.

Legion: XX is an album of covers released in May 2018 under the old Burn the Priest name, twenty years after the original Burn the Priest record. The ten songs come from hardcore, thrash and sludge bands the members grew up on.
