Critics have compared Iron Savior's sound and musical approach to classic heavy metal bands like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, and Queensrÿche. Kai Hansen's presence in the band brought to the Iron Savior albums on which he appeared a style heavily influenced by Gamma Ray and Helloween.
Since its inception, Iron Savior has released twelve studio albums, two EPs, three singles and one live album. Despite numerous lineup changes, Piet has continued to direct the band and is currently the only remaining founding member.

Iron Savior Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Made out of steel to protect and serve
Built for eternity you're indestructable
Free of emotions a robot miracle
Now you're up there above the clouds
Reading your sensors trace
Programmed to correct the errors
Of the human race
We can't hide from your cold, staring eye
Iron Iron Savior - Godness in the sky
Deadly and dangerous you'll never die
You gave us hope the Savior machine
You were supposed to be a millions dream
Circuits, chips and bits and bytes
Detecting the failure
Result of analyses
The human behavior
(I must get control)
Iron Iron Savior - Godness in the sky...
The Savior knows what's wrong or right
He made up his artificial mind
Now mankind's fate is in his hand
Will he ever understand
Iron Iron Savior - Godness in the sky...
Iron Iron Savior - look what you have done
Can't you see your assesement might be wrong
Iron Iron Savior - robot of the law
End this illfated devastating war
The song "Iron Savior" by Iron Savior is about a powerful robot created to protect and serve humanity. The lyrics in the first verse describe how the Iron Savior was made of steel, built to last forever, and programmed without emotions. The robot was designed to correct the errors of humanity and act as a savior. As the chorus repeats, the Iron Savior is worshipped like a god above the clouds, watching over humanity with its cold and staring eye, and is described as deadly and dangerous but also indestructible.
The second verse of the song reveals that the robot was created to give hope to humanity, as it was supposed to be a million dreams come true. However, the Iron Savior has detected failures in human behavior and must get control. The bridges in the song emphasize how the Savior knows what is right and wrong and has made up its artificial mind to act accordingly. The final chorus ends with an admonishment of the robot's judgment, while the end of the song raises a question – has the robot really understood the nature of humanity?
Overall, the song describes not only the power of machines that are created to protect us, but the moral dilemmas and questions that arise due to the fact that they are artificial in nature. The Iron Savior is both a savior and a destroyer, judged according to standards set forth independently from humanity.
