Legend Maker are the first band to be featured that hails from Colombia. Formed in 1994 in Cali, the band originally was called Mester De Juglaria, and sang entirely in Spanish. After a few years, a demo found its way to Sentinel Steel boss Denis Gulbey, a noted 80's metal enthusiast. Gulbey signed the band to his label, recommended the name change to Legend Maker and also introduced the band to American singer Michael Grant (later to be seen in Onward), and eventually the 6-track album The Path To Glory was released. Very much an 80's-inspired traditional metal affair, the style here is uptempo, melodic power metal, with a slight neoclassical influence.
