Thunder & Steele
Stormwarrior are known worldwide for their unique style, combining true heavy metal anthems with the concept of Nordic mythology. After releasing 2 demo tapes and playing dozens of live shows, Stormwarrior finally got the attention of one of their all time idols Kai Hansen (Gamma Ray/ex-Helloween) and recorded their self-titled debut album with him in Hamburg s Hansen Studios. The album hit the stores in July 2002 and praise from all corners of the globe has been streaming in since then.
Successful festival appearances at the Wacken Open Air (Ger), Gates Of Metal & Motala Metal Festival (Swe), a tour with Iron Savior and the EP 'Heavy Metal Fire' followed. In the following years Stormwarrior released three more successful full-length-albums, and also played on big Festivals as well as many gigs all over the world. Finally, the fifth album from Northern Germany's premiere metal warriors is ready to be
unleashed upon the world. Returning to traditional values, they went back to producer Piet Sielck, who had already put his magic hands on the hit album 'Heading Northe' (2008). Musically, the band masterfully blends the spirit of their earlier releases with the
accessibility of their newer records. 'Thunder & Steele' shows the band's unbridled joy and sincerity combined with their musical abilities that, most likely, will result in 'Thunder & Steele' being their finest hour to date!
