We look back with great pride on what we have achieved and from the bottom of our hear...ts we wish our friend Tosso all the best for the future! Tossi, vielen Dank für eine geile Zeit!

Please read Tosso’s statement below:
"Dear Leaves‘ Eyes & Atrocity fans,
this isn’t easy to tell, I have decided to depart from ATROCITY and LEAVES’ EYES.
More than half of my life it was my pleasure, honour, passion and joy to write music and tour several times around the globe with both bands.
I am very proud of what we have achieved together and very thankful for the countless amazing experiences in the studio and worldwide on the road over the last decades, especially with all of our fantastic fans. I cherish all of them and they have a safe place in my heart.
However, I feel it is the right time now for me to end this huge chapter in my life and to look forward to and embrace new things and challenges in my life, to grow as a person and learn new things.
To make it clear: I love all my band brothers and sister and there has been no negativity or any conflicts. I take this decision in full and clear consciousness, and feel it is the right time for me now.
I wish my bands all the best for the future and thank all of our fans out there that accompanied me on this incredible journey.
Love and Metal
Tosso“
