Iron Savior (album)

The Iron Savior was built and designed by the ancient civilisation of Atlantis to defend themselves against the deadly threat of the so called Alliance.

Ruled by pure egoism, where killing and betraying were legal methods to achieve welfare, this civilisation never developed a social spirit.

For millennia the balance of power between Atlantis and the Alliance made war useless since the Atlantean weapon technology was more developed.

In this situation, Atlantis developed a global defence project based on a huge vessel in Earth orbit, the Iron Savior.

In grim and rage the Alliance pushed their buttons and in a final atomic strike Atlantis was destroyed completely and was lost in the seas forever.

Finally evolution was thrown back into the stone age where the dawning of another mankind began… Now in the year 2108 the Iron Savior returned to Earth and is confronted with a scenario where the civilisation of Atlantis no longer exists.

All tracks are written by Piet Sielck, except where notedThe same recording of "Watcher in the Sky" was used on Gamma Ray's Valley of the Kings EP, which was also released in 1997.
