Leaf Fat
Leaf Fat is a five-piece Melodic Hardcore band from Ljubljana, Slovenia. The band was formed in 2001 as a High-School Punk rock band, but soon after their first release, Underworld Kingdom (2005), they shifted to a more melodic form of Screamo. The band's second album, RockPaperScossors was released on December 3 2007.
History
Early Years
The first time the band made themselves noticeable was with their first video for the song called “Winter Song” in late 2004. Despite being a low-budget video, it did its job by putting the name Leaf-fat out in the mainstream and ultimately starting the roots of the band's local fan base. This video was followed by their debut album “Underworld Kingdom” (2005) and the second video for the song “Individual Happiness”, both making a huge mark on the regional scene.
Breakthrough and Underworld Kingdom
After that, international and homeland recognition was slowly visible on the horizon. Some of their achievements are winning the second place at Newcomer festival in Austria among almost 100 bands; being voted band of the month March (2006) at www.europunk.net; sharing the stage with bands like Soulfly, Mad Caddies, The Real McKenzies, Antimaniax…; U.K. being voted one of the best alternative albums at a local radio station etc.
RockPaperScissors
In the Summer of 2007 the band decided to hit the studio and record their second studio album RockPaperScissors. During this period their live performances which were the band's most signature actions took a halt for a while. However, in order to alleviate their absence on stage, they issued their third video UK and released their first live DVD, featuring a live concert, two videos and an interview.
RockpaperScissors was released on December 3 2007. The album was followed by a new video for the lead single and title song RockPaperScissors. Leaf-fat performed live on the stage 14th December for the first time after the studio break, promoting the album to the home fans and preparing for the tour in support of the new album.
