FALL OF THE LEAFE Calls It Quits

August 22, 2007

Finnish progressive/avantgarde metallists FALL OF THE LEAFE have officially split up. The group's singer Tuomas Tuominen has issued the following statement on the matter:

"It is with a heavy heart that I have to announce that after our last remaining shows in September, FALL OF THE LEAFE is no more.

"The reasons that led to this this decision are many and the biggest one I cannot put my finger on. I think we were lead and ultimately forced into this decision by each other, by the same very different tastes and likings that made our music so special, by our private lives and perhaps finally by our own faults as people.

"For me, it has been a ten year experience and adventure with my friends and all of you who have shared FALL OF THE LEAFE with us. For that I thank you all. Thank you Jussi, Kaj, Matias, Petri, Miska — it's been a blast."

FALL OF THE LEAFE's sixth album, "Aerolithe", has just been released via Firebox Records. The album was mastered by Svante Forsback at Chartmakers studio in Helsinki, Finland.

FALL OF THE LEAFE's fifth album, "Vantage", was released in 2005 via Firebox Records.

Upcoming FALL OF THE LEAFE shows:

Sep. 01 - S-Osis - Turku, Finland
Sep. 14 - On The Rocks - Helsinki, Finland
