Savage Circus is the brainchild of Ex-Blind Guardian drummer Thomen Stauch.

Wanting to go more -back to the roots- Thomen had the idea of putting together a band to create thrashy Melodic Speed Metal. Introduced to the Swedish band Persuader by his old friend Piet Sielck, he knew he had found the elements to create this perfect marriage of catchy melodies and straight forward speed-attacks.

Comprised of four guys all sharing the same musical outlook, Jens and Emil from Persuader, Piet and Thomen make up the blistering earcandy that Savage Circus stands for.
