2003 Demo EP (The Uriah Omen)
In early 2003 He Is Legend (then known as The Uriah Omen) recorded a four song Demo EP to try to attract label attention. The four songs varied drastically in style and were quite substantial in song length. "Shoot A Fireball At It" is dark, melodic, very heavy at times and also consisted of a 7/8 time signature verse and breakdown. "Robotica" could almost be considered metalcore/progressive metal and consisted of odd time signatures, syncopated breakdowns, and even a tapping solo. "The Red Button" is a fairly catchy song with a very pop influenced chorus, but also has heavy parts. "Maybe the Butler Did It" is more reminiscent of fast paced rock'n'roll with a melodic chorus and lengthy breakdown at the end. The songs often consisted of many different parts that were organized in a very interesting manner. The diversity on the EP paints a picture for how He Is Legend mixes different genres into each album that they have released.
