Detroit the Magic is Dead — Robert Henry

Known around the globe, Detroit, Michigan, is famous for grit, blue-collar workers, and murder. The underground music scene has produced many noteworthy bands, but in the 1990s it was Legend. The band formed when four friends wanted to change the stagnant hardcore metal scene, and when they added the best singer in the city, they took over. As the years passed, the band discovered that two things destroy kings -- either they are overthrown, or they die from within.
Everything changes! The band rises in popularity, flirt with national success, but never quite make it. The choice of one ultimately dooms the band and one of the members.
