Thomen ("The Omen") Stauch (born March 11, 1970) is a heavy metal drummer, who has worked with various bands in the past. He began his career with the German power metal act Blind Guardian. He was a founding member of the band, playing drums on their 1985 demo, Symphonies of Doom. He remained with the band until April 2005,[citation needed] with his last release from the band being the live album Imaginations Through the Looking Glass, and his last studio album being the 2002 release A Night at the Opera.
He has also played drums for the band Coldseed with Soilwork frontman Björn "Speed" Strid.
Thomen is known for his fast and technical drumming skill. Especially on the Blind Guardian album A Night at the Opera where he mixes the traditional intensity and speed of the band's older style, with new, more technical and progressive elements. He is a user of Premier Drums, Paiste cymbals and Vic Firth drumsticks.....

Po meni jedan od najboljih bubnjara i ujedno covek zbog koga sam poceo svirati bubnjeve,samo poslusajte Blind Guardian-Night at the Opera album i sve ce vam biti jasno.U kontaktu sam sa njim pa imam privilegiju da chatujemo i nedavno sam saznao da je do svoje 16 godine svirao dzez sto je dodadni kvalitet i generalno je jedan od podcenjenijih bubnjara sto svakako ne zasluzuje.
