SAVAGE CIRCUS: 'Dreamland Manor' Gets North American Release Date
January 12, 2006SAVAGE CIRCUS, the new band featuring former BLIND GUARDIAN drummer Thomen Stauch and PERSUADER members Jens Karlsson (vocals, guitar) and Emil Norberg (lead guitar),will release their debut album, "Dreamland Manor", in North America on March 21 via Century Media Records. An MP3 for the track "Evil Eyes" has been posted online at this location. The North American version of the CD, which was issued in Europe last August, will include the "Evil Eyes" video. Commenting on the album’s North American release Stauch said, "We are proud to confirm having signed a deal with the right label for 'Dreamland Manor''s North American release! Century Media has convinced us with their long-time experience of releasing great metal albums in the United States of America."
Seeing his musical style diverge from that of his primary band, BLIND GUARDIAN, Stauch yearned to compose music reminiscent of their classic albums, "Tales From The Twilight Worlds" and "Imaginations From The Other Side". Stauch founded SAVAGE CIRCUS in 2004 and immediately sought like-minded musicians to round out the band’s lineup. Longtime friend Piet Sielck (IRON SAVIOR) recommended members of the Swedish band PERSUADER, guitarist Emil Norberg and vocalist Jens Carlsson, whose sophomore album he had produced. Instantly feeling a connection with their musical style, Stauch contacted Norberg and Carlsson who agreed to work with him. Stauch then turned to Sielck asking him to complete the band's circle, playing guitar and recording bass tracks. Following the 2005 recording of "Dreamland Manor" and his musical visions realized, Stauch decided to leave BLIND GUARDIAN, making SAVAGE CIRCUS his full-time band.
