Hailing from Kent, UK, the melodic heavy metal powerhouse of Stormborn draws inspiration from metal titans like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, and Dio, but still blazes a unique trail of their own in heavy metal, crafting a sound that fuses classic elements with bold, modern innovation. Stormborn isn’t just walking in the footsteps of giants; they’re crafting a new path in heavy metal, dominated by great riffs, a strong melodic backbone, and powerful vocals that you can’t help but sing along to.
The band’s career highlights include supporting Rhapsody of Fire at the Camden Underworld in 2023, winning the 2012 Metal 2 the Masses for London, playing at Bloodstock festival, winning the 2013 Summer Breeze New Blood award, and opening the main stage of Summer Breeze Festival 2013 along with being UK tour support for Dorje as well as Phil X & The Drills.
Their new album “Zenith” showcases an evolution in their songwriting and style, while still retaining that fast, riffy, melodic essence of classic Stormborn. the full-length strikes a balance between growth and familiarity, and they’re optimistic that both their loyal fans and new listeners will find something to appreciate and enjoy.
“While we appreciate heavy and technical elements in music. The album itself was really honed and manicured to be listened to back to back, and intended for the listener to settle down with a pair of good headphones or speakers and get lost in that experience. There’s a lot of intricacy in the composition and mixing that is really only there to emphasize that experience.” adds the band.
“Zenith” is due out on April 26th, 2024 on Rockshots Records and is available for pre-order at the following links:

“The next band on were Stormborn, a slightly heavier band than the previous and just as powerful. They very much interacted with the crowd, earning a lot of shouts of encouragement. Their vocalistâs range was undeniably impressive and the rest of the band sure as hell kept up with him with his fast pace and ability to start with low vocals and jumping right up into a high note within seconds.” – Moshville – Gig Review: Bloodstock M2tM Kent Finals (18th June, 2022)
“STORMBORN were inspired but with the vibe turned up to an emphatic 12. You could not help but notice the vocalist, his body expanded to fill up the stage, âI am hereâ it exclaimed” – Reflection of Darkness
âA show that is deserving of any metal audience in the UK from the smallest bar right up to a major festivalâ – Planet Mosh
