Following the previously-released cover version of Irene Cara’s 80s anthem “Fame”, Hamburg’s power metal torchbearers IRON SAVIOR unveil their brand-new single “Forever Young”, a powerful take on the Alphaville classic!
The track is the latest preview of the band’s upcoming album Awesome Anthems of the Galaxy, set for release in March 2026 via PERCEPTION – A Division Of Reigning Phoenix Music.
IRON SAVIOR frontman Piet Sielckreveals:
“When it came to picking the songs for “Awesome Anthems, ‘ Alphaville’s ‘Forever Young’ was one of the songs that almost popped up immediately. I think we did a very interesting yet powerful version of this all time classic with all the typical Iron Savior trademarks. Eager to get your feedback…”

After reigniting their cosmic engines with Machine World – Reforged in 2025, IRON SAVIOR embark on their boldest mission yet. Awesome Anthems of the Galaxy transforms some of the most iconic pop hits of the 1980s into full-throttle power metal epics, combining nostalgia, passion, and the band’s trademark precision and fire.
From the electrifying rush of A-HA’s “Take On Me” and the thunderous drama of PHIL COLLINS’ “Against All Odds” to the cinematic pulse of JERMAINE JACKSON & PIA ZADORA’s “When The Rain Begins To Fall” and the adrenaline-fueled “Maniac” by MICHAEL SEMBELLO, IRON SAVIOR reforge pop classics into heroic, melodic metal anthems.
Sielck recently said:
“After the huge success of the 2002 Condition Red bonus track “Crazy” (Seal), which was actually used in a HBO TV show, we have been asked by fans and medias almost constantly to do a complete cover tracks album. So… two decades later here we are!” quotes frontman Piet Sielck. “AWESOME ANTHEMS continues the transformation from pop-to-metal in Iron Savior style as started with Seal’’s “Crazy” and Eurythmics “Sweet Dreams. We are absolutely proud of the outcome, which never looses the original vibe of the tracks but yet is 100% Iron Savior. Just listen yourself.. I guarantee a lot of smiles while doing so!”
With Awesome Anthems of the Galaxy, IRON SAVIOR fuse nostalgia and futurism, passion and precision, proving once again that the past can shine brighter than ever when reforged in metal! Pre-save the album now at: https://ironsavior.rpm.link/awesomeanthemsPR
