Moscow's Storm of Souls thrash from the Russian capital since 2019. Their tempest-of-spirits name channels the whirlwind of departing consciousness into compositions of high-velocity, capital-city aggression.

Storm Orchestra are a Paris modern rock trio whose music is built around aggressive riffs, bright choruses, and a compact sense of momentum. The band took shape when Max and Adrien, who had met while studying sound engineering, connected with Loic in 2019, after which the project moved quickly from underground stages to larger French opportunities. Early EP material and the album What a Time to Be Alive show a group using alternative rock as a flexible frame: the guitars are sharp enough for hard-rock bills, the rhythms are direct, and the vocal hooks aim for immediacy rather than obscurity. Songs such as "Bright Soul," "Drummer," "Lose My Breath Away," and "Get Better" place Storm Orchestra near the current European alt-rock lane where production clarity and live energy matter equally. They are not a metal band, but they qualify as hard-rock-adjacent through riff weight, stage force, and a clear preference for punch over softness. Their strongest material sounds engineered for movement, with concise arrangements and choruses that hit fast.
