Savage Circus is a German–Swedish power metal band formed as a side project by drummer Thomas "Thomen" Stauch after his departure from Blind Guardian. The project began when Stauch contacted musician Piet Sielck about collaborating. Sielck introduced him to members of the Swedish band Persuader, whose vocalist Jens Carlsson and guitarist Emil Norberg subsequently joined the lineup. The band released its debut album "Dreamland Manor" in August 2005. Read more on Last.fm
