The emo mashup album from 2007 you completely forgot about
In 2004, Chad Blinman and Face To Face’s Trever Keith formed an electronic/mash-up group called the Legion Of Doom. They are best known for their 2007 album, Incorporated, which combined popular songs of the screamo and emo genres.
The LP saw several delays as certain artists whose songs are included on the effort didn’t want them presented in mash-up form. Legion eventually released the album on a limited amount of physical CDs through the controversial sampling label Illegal Art.
