Metal Mind Productions Release Information



Here is the third full-length album by the Metal/Southern Rock band Leash Eye. The band calls its own music as Hard Truckin’ Rock. Technically speaking, it’s a mixture of a good old hardrock sound dating back to the Seventies with scents of stoner metal and southern rock tradition. The core of the band’s sound comprises of a well embedded rhythm section, the mighty sound of guitars and distorted Hammond organs. The classical hardrocking vocal gives a nice finish to it all. This blend is bottled into one band playing 21st century style hardrock.

The band was founded by three friends, playing for their own enjoyment. As their musical goal, the band decided to follow the same road as the one chosen by Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Kyuss, Tool, Illusion and Spiritual Beggars. In March 1999 they recorded five songs, which were featured on their promo CD. The change of the lead singer in 2003 triggered also a change of their style: these days Leash Eye stands for melodious hardrock of the Seventies, accompanied by heavy modern sounds and classic vocals.

In Autumn 2009, Leash Eye’s debut album “V.E.N.I”, featuring the guest appearance of Riverside’s Michał Łapaja on Hammond organ, saw the light of day. The album met with the acclaim of both critics and listeners. The year 2010 was marked by intense work on new songs, which were to be included on the band’s new full-length album. Ultimately, 10 out of 13 compositions were chosen and, in the beginning of 2011, the band enters the Sound Division Studio in Warsaw to record their second album “V.I.D.I”, with Behemoth’s Orion as producer and Vesania’s Heinrich as sound engineer. Until now, the year 2011 was definitely the most successful year in Leash Eye’s career. They won the Antyradio’s competition and, as a result, their right to perform at the Sonisphere Festival next to Motorhead and Iron Maiden. Also they represented Poland at the Wacken Open Air Festival, where they performed as the winners of the Polish edition of the Wacken Metal Battle. Also in 2011, they released their second studio album “V.I.D.I”.

And still the best is yet to come as they return with the third studio album entitled “Hard Truckin’ Rock”.
