Does anybody else here like Leaves Eyes? If you do, they're playing the Underworld in Camden on October 21st. I don't know if they're playing anywhere else in the UK as there's nothing on the Leaves Eyes website at present, just on the Underworld's. I haven't seen them so it will be another gig to look forward to.

I really like Leaves' Eyes, they have some fantastic songs and of course, Liv Kristine <3. That is interesting, it will certainly have to go on my possible gig list. I like going to London for gigs, it would be brilliant to see them live.
You have put me right in the mood now to listen to them! *puts on Elegy*
What's your favourite track and why?

It's difficult to choose just one Leaves Eyes song as they have recorded so many good ones. But I'll pick 'Battle of Maldon' which is one of the tracks on the 'My Destiny' single. It's a typical Leaves Eyes song with quiet, folky bits as well as heavier parts, with Liv's singing and Alexander's grunts working well together. And I also like it because it's about a battle that took place quite close to where I live so that makes it a bit more interesting for me.

When I win the lottery I am going to organise the biggest and best gig ever featuring all my favourite bands who don't come to Glasgow .

If you mean the male vocalist, that's Alexander Krull, Liv's husband.

Saw Leaves Eyes twice last year, once with Kamelot and once at Bloodstock. Thought they were really good and intend to go to the London gig, Pythia tour permitting!

I went through a phase of not liking them at all but now I'm really getting into them! I think its the fact that I'm not much of a fan of death grunts but I think I can deal with it because I like her voice so much (same with Arkona). I love their songs in Old English, it gives me some weird sense of patriotism (even though half my ancestors would have spoken Cornish anyway...)

I have booked my Leaves Eyes tickets . I'm really looking forward to going as they are different from the bands I have seen live before (NW/WT/Delain+Pythia). I only know a handful of their songs tbh but today on a day of endless bus trips I had their albums on my mp3 player and I was impressed with the stuff I haven't heard before. Hubby hasn't heard any of their songs so I'm just hoping he likes them but I'm sure he will when the time comes + I'm sure he will fancy Liv when he sees her lol.

They've announced another UK tour supporting (I assume?) Firewind! The Southampton gig is literally a three minute walk from my house, so pleased!
