Oxford based riff hounds Desert Storm have been making a name for themselves since they formed in 2007. From the beginning the band have worked hard...with 3 albums and a demo and relentless touring of the UK & Europe with the likes of Karma To Burn, Nashville Pussy, Peter Pan Speedrock, Honky (ft members of Down/Melvins/Butthole Surfers) as well as support slots to the likes of Orange Goblin, Red Fang, American Head Charge and festival appearances at The Bulldog Bash, The Desertfest, Brisfest & Roadkill (BEL).

January 26th is the worldwide release date for the new record 'Omniscient' (Blindsight records- distro by Code 7 via PHD) which features 10 brand new tracks full of colossal riffs and pure rock fury, but with some moments of folk and psychedelia. The album was engineered by Jamie Dodd (Orange Goblin) and is the follow up to 2013's acclaimed 'Horizontal Life' record. You can read some press below for 'Omniscient' (more to follow) Horizontal life and the debut album 'Forked Tongues'.

2015 is shaping up nicely as there are some exciting tour plans in place, and Desert Storm have been confirmed for Desertfest London again.
