StormWarrior

Stormwarrior is a German power metal band originally from Hamburg. The band was formed in 1998 by Lars Ramcke and André Schumann, joined by guitarist Scott Bolter and bassist Tim Zienert, recruited in the same year. Strongly inspired by the 1980s heavy metal scene, in particular by bands from Hamburg such as Helloween or Running Wild, Stormwarrior produced its first songs on a demo titled Metal Victory, pressed in 500 copies. A year later, the band recorded its second demo, Barbaric Steel, which was limited to 1,000 copies. These two demos helped the band achieve a certain notoriety.
