1978 - 1984 Počátky skupiny sahají až do roku 1978, kdy dva kytaristi Kai Hansen a Piet Sielck hráli ve skupině Gentry, ale po mnohých změnách v sestavě ji přejmenovali nejprve na Second Hell a poté na Ironfist. Po těchto změnách doplnili kapelu...

The Time Of The Oath
So far from our system we came here through space 
To leave poisoned spheres for your race 
Our knowledge we trade for the time shared on earth 
To take and give for what it's worth 


On, our screens we've been shown your world 
Plead for your welcome, you won't get hurt 


Mission motherland 
Another chance 
With sunlit soil and air to breathe 
Is there any place for us to live 
To grow descendants to be free 


You gave us resources 
You gave us advice 
To deal with the unknown 
To get humanized 
We've shown you dimensions 
And brought you on ways 
You've never seen yesterday 


Hand in hand we will march through time 
So much more to research and find 


Mission motherland 
Another chance 
With sunlit soil and air to breathe 
Is there any place for us to live 
To grow descendants to be free 


When you hear these words 
We've taken cold refuge 
In freezers to keep us alive 
What we didn't know 
Your central star called sun 
Sends lethal rays to earth 
Say how many of us died 
In the streams of light 
Faceless bodies, morbid cries 
Doomed our colonies 
Wake us when you;ve healed the world 
Save our souls 


When will we be as one again 
And fulfill what we understand as 


Mission motherland 
Another chance 
With sunlit soil and air to breathe 
Is there any place for us to live 
To grow descendants to be free
