IRON SAVIOR BIOGRAPHY
Iron Savior is a German power metal band formed by Piet Sielck, Kai Hansen, and Thomas "Thomen" Stauch. 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
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.
Following the 2004 release of Battering Ram, Iron Savior has set a spring of 2007 release date for their next album, Megatropolis.
