VIOLENT STORM Taps Former W.A.S.P. Drummer

August 7, 2007

VIOLENT STORM, the new band formed by ex-YNGWIE MALMSTEEN/BLACKMORE'S NIGHT bassist Mick Cervino, has announced the addition of drummer Stet Howland (W.A.S.P., TEMPLE OF BRUTALITY) to the group's ranks.

Back in June, VIOLENT STORM cancelled the remaining dates on its European tour "due to unforseen circumstances beyond our control," according to a statement released by the group's management. No further details were provided.

VIOLENT STORM's latest album, "Storm Warning" was produced by JUDAS PRIEST guitarist K.K. Downing (his first production credit outside of PRIEST),and features guest appearances by Downing, Malmsteen and Roy Z (HALFORD, BRUCE DICKINSON). The CD was released in the U.S. on July 17 via Gold Storm Records. An October 2006 interview with Downing conducted by "Pandora's Rock Box" for U.K.'s Radio Caroline station about about his involvement with VIOLENT STORM is available for download in MP3 format at this location.
