Legion of Doom is an electronica group, famous for their download-only mash up album, "Incorporated", and original scores for horror soundtracks.
History
The Legion of Doom consists of Chad Blinman and Trever Keith (of the former California punk band Face to Face). The two formed the Legion of Doom in 2004 to focus on a series of unique creative projects.
The first of these projects was "Incorporated", a mash-up album featuring mixes of various punk and hardcore bands. The album was completed in 2006, but due to some of the artists unwilling to allow the album to be released, [ [http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1498266/20050317/index.jhtml?headlines=true Emo Mash-Ups: Bands, True To Form, Are Not Amused - News Story | Music, Celebrity, Artist News | MTV News ] ] the group intentionally leaked the album onto the P2P Networks.

Other projects in the works include the original score and music supervision for independent film "Eyes Front", an album of original material, and drum and sample sets.
During several Legion Of Doom songs, a male and a female voice can be heard speaking at certain points. These are the voices of Ken and Winnie from the 1950 movie "This Charming Couple".
