Séverine Peraldino· 105 articles
Reviewer, interviewer and apprentice photographer for Metal Express Radio, Séverine comes from a small place in the Southern French Alps, near Grenoble. Her taste for classic Heavy Metal is a family heritage and after growing up listening to Iron Maiden, Dio, Metallica and Angra she expanded her horizons with almost every subgenre of Metal, from Power, to Prog, a little bit of Death and Black Metal. She mostly enjoys albums telling stories with originality. When she is not travelling around for concerts and festivals, you can find her reading a good book, or playing board games with friends.
An album cover for Sabaton - Legends is a detailed, dramatic, and epic illustration dominated by fiery orange and dark tones, centered around themes of historical and mythical figures. In the center, a colossal Egyptian pharaoh's head and headdress rise from the background, flanked by a smaller figure of a man with a laurel wreath (perhaps Roman). Various scenes of battle and legend surround the center: a warrior on an elephant wielding a weapon, a dragon figure on the right, and soldiers on horseback in the foreground, including one with a long, red cape and another in full armor. A medieval castle is partially visible below the pharaoh's head, and a pyramid is faintly visible at the top. The band name, "Sabaton," is at the top in a large, metallic, gothic font, and the album title, "LEGENDS," is at the bottom. The overall image is an intense collage of iconic historical and mythical warfare imagery.
