Leaves' Eyes is a Symphonic Metal band with Folk Metal elements from Norway/Germany assembled in 2003, shortly before singer Liv Kristine was fired from Theatre of Tragedy. Leaves' Eyes was formed by her husband Alexander Krull and members of his band Atrocity. The band combines atmospheric, metal and classical elements. The vocals of Liv Kristine are occasionally backed up by death grunts from her husband Alexander Krull, but most of the time Liv Kristine sings alone.
Their debut album, Lovelorn, was released in 2004. The second album, Vinland Saga, was released 30th of May 2005, and retells the tale of the discovery of Vinland (i.e. North America) by Leif Erikson. The EP Legend Land was released on June 2, 2006 as a followup to Vinland Saga.
Liv Kristine thought of the band name, which is a homophone for her first name. "Leaves" is connected to nature, which has always been the biggest inspiration for her. Liv Kristine writes all of the lyrics for the band. [1]
Leaves' Eyes are currently working on their first DVD, as of now it's release date is unknown. They supported Blind Guardian on their North American tour in November 2006.[1] They are scheduled to tour with Kamelot and Fairyland in 2007.
