Editorial Reviews

Following the breakout success of last year’s Vinland Saga and the world tours to support it, atmospheric metal masters Leaves’ Eyes return with a special MCD, Legend Land. Featuring the title track and five brand-new exclusive songs, Legend Land is guaranteed to tide fans over for album #3, to be released later this year. The adventure continues!

The first 3000 copies of Legend Land will be released as a special Ltd. Fan Edition with alternate cover art before reverting to the regular edition. An absolute must-have for all Leaves’ Eyes fans!

4.0 out of 5 stars Mystical and Evocative..., July 29, 2006

The latest release by veteran metal act Leaves' Eyes is perfect for devoted fans of the band who loved its predecessor, Vinland Saga (if you have not listened to Leaves' Eyes before, I would recommend Lovelorn). The aptly called Legend Land uses imagery to convey a vast range of emotions. I gave this release 4 stars because it is a very lovely collection of music, albeit a short one. Ultimately, fans will not be disappointed. The title track is especially powerful.

I LOVE this cd. I am an "older guy" (60 yrs. old) and would never have believed that I'd purposely choose to listen to a type of music referred to as "Goth Metal." It sorta reminds me of some Enya/Opera Babes/Metallica/Creed mix (and I don't like Creed or Metallica), but ... I'll definitely make an exception on this one. Maybe it's the "Viking" aspect that I'm attracted to...

3.0 out of 5 stars Nothing too spectacular, August 16, 2006

This review is from: Legend Land (Audio CD)

I never thought I would ever be disappointed in a Leaves' Eyes release but Hades has truly frozen over because I have finally heard a Leaves' Eyes cd that left me unimpressed. I recently acquired "Legend Land" yesterday when I went cd hunting. It hurts me to say this since I am a big Leaves' Eyes fan but "Legend Land" did not do squat for me. The music was nowhere as epic sounding or melodic as "Lovelorn" or "Vinland Saga". While I didn't mind Alexander Krull's vocals so much on "Vinland Saga", I absolutely hated his vocals on this 21 minute EP. His cookie monster on acid vocals was absolutely distracting. The one song that I did love on the whole EP was the title track. Liv Kristine sounded like an angel. Too bad I can't say the same about the other tunes which were lifeless and flat IMO. Hopefully this isn't what is to be expected for the band's next full length album.
