Jens Carlsson Emil Norberg Piet Sielck Thomen Stauch |
Savage Circus is a German power metal band originally created as a side project by Thomen Stauch before leaving Blind Guardian, but can now be seen as his "official" band. He asked his friend Piet Sielck if he was interested to join Thomen's new project, which he was. Piet then introduced a Swedish band called Persuader to Thomen. Thomen liked the band and also liked the fact that the vocalist sounded very much like Hansi Kürsch. Thomen immediately said that he wanted to have Jens Carlsson (singer of Persuader) in the band. Jens brought with him Persuader guitarist Emil Norberg. Their debut album, Dreamland Manor was released in August of 2005.
The musical style is similar to both Blind Guardian and Persuader but does of course also contain some elements Iron Savior, due to Piet Sielck's writing.
