Biography
A forerunner to MERCYFUL FATE, BRATS favoured a sound somewhere between the NWoBHM approach and Punk Rock. Having released a split single with TYRANTZ in 1980 the group recorded a full album for CBS Records the same year. This record has become extremely collectable since the emergence of MERCYFUL FATE.
The BRATS album was reissued on King's own Diamond Records in 2000. In later years frontman Yenz 'Cheyenne' Leonhardt would go on to GEISHA and Y. Subsequently Leonhardt was enrolled as touring rhythm guitarist for KINGDOM COME and by December of 2003 was installed as bassist for German power Metal band IRON SAVIOR.
