CRIMSON STORM was originally formed in 2009 by guitarist and primary songwriter Lögan Heads in Sardinia, Italy. Inspired by classic Heavy, Power, and Speed Metal bands of the 80s, the project takes its name from Riot’s song “Sign of the Crimson Storm”. After relocating to Barcelona in 2015 and undergoing lineup changes, the band reemerged with a renewed energy, releasing several EPs, including Motor City Maniac (2014) and Outrageous (2019).
The band’s debut album Livin’ On the Bad Side is a culmination of their journey, blending new material with reimagined tracks from their earlier releases. With a sound that balances 80s nostalgia and a raw, modern edge, the album captures the frenetic energy and biker-inspired spirit that define CRIMSON STORM.
Since returning to live performances in 2022, CRIMSON STORM have made a mark with standout shows, including appearances at the Trveheim Festival in Germany and the Pyrenean Warriors Open Air in France. These experiences fueled the creative process behind Livin’ On the Bad Side, recorded in 2024 and set to showcase their growth as musicians and songwriters.
