  Edguy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Edguy was founded in 1992 by the 14-year-old students Tobias Sammet, Jens Ludwig, Dirk Sauer, and Dominik Storch.
Edguy does not claim to represent any ideology; Tobias Sammet claimed "We are not political and we are not religious; at least there is no key message in our songs telling you what to think in terms of anything".
Edguy also employs lengthy and epic sections in almost every album.
