Eyes of Eden
Eyes of Eden is a German symphonic metal band founded in 2005 by multi-instrumentalist and record producer Waldemar Sorychta. Sorychta initially chose Sandra Schleret as the singer, but she became ill and could not finish the recordings for the first studio album. She was replaced by the then-unknown 20-year-old Franziska Huth.[1] The drum parts on the album were initially recorded by Gas Lipstick, but he was later replaced by Tom Diener.[1] Alla Fedynitch was chosen as the bassist.[1] Faith was released on August 20, 2007 in Europe and November 6, 2007 in North America.[2] The band has not played any live shows recently and it seems that members have been working on side projects, including Franziska completing university.

History
Waldemar Sorychta started Eyes of Eden by writing songs and assembling the band. They recorded the material with Gas Lipstick (HIM) on drums. Singer Sandra Schleret recorded most of the vocals of the album, but then had some serious health issues to take care of, so she left the band before the album was finished. Eyes of Eden then appointed 20-year-old Franziska Huth to re-record the vocals on the album. Faith was released in 2007.[3]
