The slithering earworm sounds of Stormborn‘s power metal force are presented in their latest single “Out In The Weird” off their forthcoming album “Zenith” due out this coming 26th April 2024 from Rockshots Records.
This new single get back to the thinly veiled political and societal commentary. This ones dynamic but huge, with massive thematic melodies, stripped back brooding verses, soaring choruses, and even an obligatory acoustic bridge. Guitarist Laurence Armitage absolutely lets rip with his solo on this one whilst vocalist Chris Simmons tells a tale of people who couldn’t bear the changing surface and delved deep beneath the earth to fester and rage.

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
