Hamburg, Germany (1996 – present)

Iron Savior is a band formed in Hamburg, Germany in 1996. It was formed by Piet Sielck (Savage Circus), Kai Hansen (Helloween, Gamma Ray), Thomas ‘Thomen’ Stauch (ex-Blind Guardian, ex-Savage Circus). Both Sielck and Hansen handled lead vocal duties, Sielck doing the most parts and was also the lower voice and Hansen the higher and sang occasionally.

The band has a science-fiction theme to their writing. Most of their songs narrate an elaborate story based on a plot involving a self-aware space vessel (the Iron Savior) constructed by the lost continent of Atlantis. Recently, themes include explorations on one’s perception of reality and the spirit of freedom. Their style may appeal to fans of Iron Maiden, Gamma Ray and Helloween, among others.

Album releases include:
*Iron Savior (1997)
*Unification - 1998)
*Interlude (EP) (1999)
*Dark Assault (2001)
*Condition Red (2002)
*Battering Ram (2004)
*Megatropolis (2007)

Many of their albums include a cover song, given new life through typical Iron Savior style. Iron Savior has done covers of Seal, Judas Priest, Helloween, and Black Sabbath to name a few.

Current lineup:
*Piet Sielck (guitars, lead vocals)
*Joachim Küstner (guitars, back vocals)
*Yenz Leonhardt (bass, back vocals)
*Thomas Nack (drums)

Ex-members
*Kai Hansen (guitars, lead vocals, back vocals)
*Thomas ‘Thomen’ Stauch (drums)

    Some cliched, cheesy but extremely great 80s-like heavy metal on The Landing! Iron Savior are (at least!) as good as ever! Yes, Savage Circus, Blind Guardian, Dio-era Sabbath and even Grave Digger (Before the Pain) come to mind. ;) Top-notch metal, that's about it. No additional words needed! :)

    Shit, I just heard the re-recorded version of Coming Home. By fuck did they nail the chorus. That was immense.

    Damn satisfied with The Landing. They've got their groove back on the catchy-melody-front, I'd thought they lost it (with the exception of 'Farewell and Goodbye') on Megatropolis. This gives me the same great feeling I got from Battering Ram, Dark Assault, and Condition Red. Two-thirds of the album had me tapping my toes as well as banging my head (which I did the whole album, of course). Good shit!

    New album Still can't get even close to Condition Red or Even Battering Ram. At least its better than Mega-Flop-oplis. That album was horrible

    Music is monotonous, vocal is quiet disgusting. The only song I love is called Warrior.
