Melodic prog-metal band Storms Approach formed in 2005 in the greater
Boston area. Since then they've released a self-titled album and
supported it by playing shows around New England. The band's musical
influences run the gambit, but accomplished vocalist Anne Collins has
earned Storms Approach comparisons to Lacuna Coil and Evanescence.
Drummer Chris Munroe, lead guitarist Eric Clemenzi, and bassist Steve
Belleville met playing in a Dream Theater tribute band, which accounts
for the group's progressive nature. Rhythm guitarist Scott Randall,
formerly of Somber Blessings, brings with him a background of doom
metal and classical music. Storms Approach combines these various
elements to achieve pop-sensible metal, likened to Porcupine Tree,
Within Temptation, and Opeth. Their further diabolical aspirations
include world domination and post-rehearsal ice cream socials.

Hi! It was great meeting you all, and I really enjoyed the band's set. I'm working on the pics & story, and we'll get a writeup of the album on the website as well. Cheers! mike
Just listened to the CD. Blew me away! Freaking superb craftsmanship, all around. If this album were a woman, I would ask her out and probably be rejected, since she is so obviously out of my league.
