Have you have ever looked at the surreal landscapes adorning the covers of classic heavy metal albums? If so then you will have some idea what to expect from Brutal Legend; set amongst fantasy grasslands and mountain ranges scored with deep chasms glowing with the fires of hell. Skeletons and demons stalk these plains, taking and enslaving all humans they can find. Standard procedure in such fantasy lands requires a fantasy saviour. However our hero is no barbarian in a loincloth, and no elf with a whistle can hold back this rising darkness. No, Brutal Legend is the song of a roadie, his only weapons? A pair of axes; one battleaxe and his guitar!
