Voltstorm's debut EP delivers high-octane heavy metal with soaring vocals, driving riffs, and a modern twist on classic metal energy.

Voltstorm's 2022 self-titled debut EP is a powerful opening statement from one of the UK's most promising new heavy metal acts. Blending the raw energy of classic metal with a fresh, modern edge, this release introduced fans to the band's signature sound: thunderous riffs, soaring vocals, and tightly honed songwriting that captures the genre's past while charging headfirst into its future.

Rooted in the tradition of NWOBHM greats like Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, and Saxon, Voltstorm infuses their music with a high-octane punch and contemporary flair. Each track on the EP showcases the band's commitment to precision and performance, from the driving rhythms to the commanding vocal delivery of frontman John D. Prasec. With bold lyrics that touch on themes of power, self-belief, and personal conflict, the EP delivers anthems that are as emotionally resonant as they are relentlessly heavy.

Released during the challenges of the global pandemic, the EP was created in isolation yet it brims with vitality and cohesion. It stands as a testament to the band's passion and determination, marking the beginning of their journey into the global metal scene. Despite the remote production constraints, the EP received early praise for its crisp production, infectious energy, and classic-meets-modern approach to songwriting.

Voltstorm's self-titled EP not only laid the foundation for the full-length album Break The Silence (2024), but also set a high bar for what fans could expect from the band in the years to come. This is heavy metal done right: no gimmicks, just pure, unapologetic power.

For fans of Judas Priest, Dio, Iron Maiden, and those hungry for the next wave of heavy metal heroes, Voltstorm's debut EP is a must-listen.
