He Is Legend - White Bat

[@seanthebaptist6757]

HIL has always been criminally underrated.

[@Makibishi93]

I'm new to the band and it's all I listen to. I heard they've been around forever and I'm not sure how I've not heard of them. The man sings his heart out, it's like you know you're in for a good time.

[@JoyThiefTheBand]

I'm happy their were one of the biggest of the Southern Hardcore era in the early to late 2000's, but I think core kids weren't ready for their more Rock albums, which sucks, they're so good at blending core and Rock without making it Octanecore at all.

[@piotr_szambelan248]

Guys, your WHITE BAT album is the best thing I've ever heard since IT HATES YOU. You are the most underrated band of the 21st century. I love your creativity. Your fan since 2002

[@manobo_simulao]

Sucks

[@wadeq926]

Fucking preach, brother

[@Walkerbjj]

Piotr Szambelan i played in the band before the name change. We were called Uriah Omen. I was a fan before, during, and since. They are a sick band and very underrated.

[@piotr_szambelan248]

@@Walkerbjj thanks for the answer. Greetings.

[@felcroticx5373]

That was their worst album too for most fans. I Am Hollywood is still one of my all time favorites and White Bat is 2nd.

[@andstr4150]

Saw them last weekend. They're so heavy but in a way you don't get anywhere else. Friendliest crowd ever. Ended on this song. So good

[@Soulius]

Saw them at the loving touch in Ferndale, we rocked it! The whole crowd was loving the Hollyweird anniversary tour, honestly out of all the times I have seen them live I think that was the best and cleanest vocals I've heard from them live! I hope Chicago also rocked out hard!

[@westowned]

Just saw them tonight, and same. Everyone had a great time and the whole crowd knew every lyric. I can't believe I've been into this band for 20 years now, they're truly something else.

[@aunderiskerensky2304]

was most underrated band when i was mid twenties, still most underrated band and im 35. fucking DAMMIT so good

[@damienbronsonjr.2332]

man...Honestly to me, they were (and I gladly discover now they still are) one of the best band whatever the genre...So underrated !

[@gluedtogames]

34 here and I completely agree. Dude, I've loved this band since I was about 19 and saw them a few years ago for the first time. I got so moved by the performance and was able to meet Schuylar after the show. I didn't have enough money for a shirt, so I gave him what cash I had in my pocket (which was $10), and told him how much their music has meant to me over the years. It was surreal.

[@petercollier4362]

34 and I still watch all their music videos on a daily basis. One of the best bands in existence as far as I’m concerned.

[@mittmadford5402]

I was literally adjusting in the same thing the exact same thing

[@louper3002]

I'm totally with you bro, I heard them when I was maybe 20 and thought, why the hell aren't these guys on the front of magazines? And only just getting back into them again now, realizing their stuff has only gotten better over the years. That track 'sands' is off the charts. I'm atheist and HIL is produced by a Christian label, so I'm as unbiased as they come

[@aidan499]

Almost everyone says they're under rated. . . . . . THEY ARE NOT. For those gifted with listening to them think they are amazing. No one dislikes this band. No one

[@newmurderer3750]

the most underrated band ever. PERFECTION.

[@Chasecka]

I listened to these guys when I was 19 in 2005. I discovered them because of a hot topic dvd they gave out for free. It had a bunch of music videos on it. It had “the seduction” music video from I am Hollywood. I bought that album and jammed it for a while. I honestly just forgot about these guys. Well I randomly thought of them because I was in a nostalgic mood. I went back and listened to their I am Hollywood album. Then I saw they had new stuff so I checked it out. I’m so happy these guys are still a band. This song and all their new stuff is fucking amazing. They have grown so much and you can tell in their music. But you can still hear that original sound as well. This is highly underrated and some good shit!

[@ayewhaddupdoe]

Check out "It Hates You" too, first album they kinda left the "southern metalcore" kinda thing they were doing on the first two albums. IMO a top 100 of all time album.

[@Chasecka]

@@ayewhaddupdoe Awesome thanks! I’ll check it out!

[@alicelookingthroughtheglas2933]

Same here bro! I had no idea what I was in for!

[@justin3d44]

Forever my favorite band. So unique and so talented. Every album made me happy for different reasons, but White Bat made me smile with pure nostalgia. It brought me back to Suck Out The Poison. Still got it! Love you guys.

[@RefineIrony]

So wildly underrated & underappreciated. Riffs so unique. Changes so tight. lb 4 lb top flight bands of the world, Craig

[@midwestlizardman1149]

This is one of my go to albums while mowing my lawn

[@surgery318]

One of the most unique and mesmerizing bands I've ever listened to. Still listening almost 20 years later. My neighbors keep their Christmas decorations up year long and I always think of HIL...

[@FriendxA]

i've grown tired of metal over the years, every one follows the same formula. But He is Legend is back, we just need Maylene to come back too!

[@DannyKopij]

Maylene unfortunately probably wont ever happen. Dallas Taylors accident sadly left the dude barely able to function on a day to day let alone be on a stage. A miracle would be fucking amazing though.

[@johnosucha]

Fuck Maylene. Sorry but they tried way too hard

[@johnosucha]

This is getting close to the sound of their earlier albums which I like better than some of their later stuff. Personally.

[@zachthomas5272]

john osucha I kinda get where you’re coming from. I really enjoyed the first couple of releases, but after that they weren’t much different than Memphis May Fire to me.

[@ericthorpe5670]

@@johnosucha They definitely tried way too hard on Open Your Eyes. Sadly that album blew, but I,II and III were pretty kickass

[@MrMerzforthewin]

"Oh hey, HeIsLegend put out a new record. Let's see what they're up toOH MY GOD!"

[@sethpatton7213]

Been listening to these dudes since the beginning. One of the greatest bands that more people need to know about without them falling into mainstream. ❤️

[@pmuskett311]

I met these guys back in the day. They were opening for someone... i can't remember anymore, but I do remember that they stole the show. They were cool as hell. After their set was over they went out and chilled in the crowd. That's where I got a chance to meet them. Excellent music. I'm so glad they're back.

[@vaughnblaylock6069]

Saw these guys with my kids (8 and 12) and thought they were great. Super super nice guys. Music was solid as a rock. Go see them with While She Sleeps and Savage Hands this tour!

[@mattc.9927]

I saw these dudes live on accident going to a local concert. they blew me away, singer had a vest on that was way to small for him and the drummer was the sickest man behind the kit I have ever seen. I have been a fan ever since probably over a decade now. ill buy anything they put out.

[@Jmira-zu8ui]

This band has always been so solid since day one. NEVER disappoints. ......... .... ...... ... .. . . . I need a neck brace.

[@joshisajedi2461]

Two bands that I never get tired of: He Is Legend and Maylene and The Sons of Disaster. I feel like their music goes hand in hand representing Southern Metal 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻.

[@KevinQ25]

Too bad Maylene probably won't make music again

[@joshisajedi2461]

Kevin Quirt - Yeah I know. That really does suck.

[@HoosierHacker]

THEY CALL ME WHITE BAT!!!! I asked can I buy you tots at the bar and Schulyar was so nice and said no you don't have to.. I said I've loved your music for so long.. we drank top self whisky and talked about the life on the road.. took a pic with a piece of paper I made before the show saying "Josh this is amazing!" Josh was a guitarist in a band I grew up with that loved this band too. One of the best nights! I'm strong and you guys helped me get there! Thanks beyond words. I'll be there with more friends at the next show!

I will never tell anybody about this band, hil is my forever hidden gem since their very first album, hil is mine

[@Andf-kc4xx]

Djodi Ahmad im gonna get them on the same bill as Foo Fighters

[@ProdByClockwerk]

This is selfish towards fans and the band it self. Basically by keeping this band your, "forever hidden gem", you are potentially depriving a person of the same joyful feelings that you have simply because you want to being a fucking hipster dufus who can be like, "HUR HUR GUIZ! I KNOW OF MOOZIK U DONT!!!!? Well Newsflash, they may not be mainstream but still a fuck ton of people know about them so they aren't solely your fucking hidden gem." And second by keeping this band to yourself (or any band really) your are preventing the band from getting more fans. more fans = more money via concert tickets, merch, more prestigious venues, bigger tours with bigger artists etc.... I mean what if before the band even got signed every fan of theirs decided to have your mindset and never share them? Yeah the band could do promotion for themselves but not if they have no money because no one knows who they are. For all you know, if everyone had your mindset and tried to keep the band a secret the members could have said, "fuck it, we can't make money so we quit" before they even had the chance to become your, "forever hidden gem."
