Oxford-based sludge/stoner metallers Desert Storm, have unveiled details of their upcoming album and confirmed their European tour to coincide with the release.
The band entered the studio to lay down the tracks for the new album, which will be titled “Sentinels”.
Check out the video for the new track “Journey’s End” below.
The majority of the album was recorded with engineer Jamie Dodd (Orange Goblin) at Flesh & Bone Studio's, Hackney. The rest was tracked by Steve “Geezer” Watkins at Woodworm studios (which has seen legendary Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi using the studio).
Desert Storm guitarist Ryan Cole comments: “This album is a natural progression from our previous releases; it has the Desert Storm sound but has moved in a much harder, darker and heavier direction”.
“Sentinels” is the follow up to 2015’s critically acclaimed “Omniscient”, and it will be released on March 16th, 2018, via APF Records (Cargo distribution).
